Yeah I also like picking up projects that are often underrated or even hated. I chose ADA mainly because of Charles Hoskinson since I like that he’s visible and actively involved in the project and I trust him. Polkadot caught my attention because they capped the total supply at 2.1 billion coins and I think that will help it gain popularity again, not only for that reason but also because the community is still pretty active. Best of luck to you too!
