If you've been investing in crypto for some time now, you've probably heard the word DYOR a couple times. DYOR or "do your own research" is simply taking some time to make your own findings on a project before making investment decisions and not just taking advice from some schmuck on social media and you don't know if its a legitimate financial advice or just a shill. DYOR can also help you stay away from scams or sketchy apps that can harm you.
DYOR can come in many ways combined. You can DYOR by checking on the latest news, read the charts, check on the projects website and social channels, and what the community says about it.
Luckily there are lots of tools or apps available to make your DYOR time a bit easier. Some are paid, some are free but did you know that there are tools that give you bonuses for using their app? Some can be points where you can swap for other stuff & some can be in crypto or fiat.
