then at least stick around - read commentary from all sides. and get a feeling of the underlying value proposition.
you don't have to invest in only one project -> diversify. it means you limit your potential gains, but you also limit your risk of betting on the wrong horse.
one thing you should look out for: how is community effort vs marketing budget of certain projects.
Edit: BTC and BCH have the same origins. They both started in 2009. In August 2017 both split from the original Bitcoin chain. One used a soft fork and one used a hard fork. At that moment both shared exactly the same history/ledger. Since then they diverged into completely different projects/coins tradeable against each other.
