XLM is the same thing as XRP really, same people too ... I really wouldn't invest into it, there is so many more opportunity out there ... if only BTC and ETH are a far superior investment to this, the risk of XLM not being a good long term investment compared to these 2 is very high.
be careful about the noise people make on this, the XRP army have moved on to XLM and the shilling is beyond ridiculous.
if you want to make money short term you have to move up the risk curve, look at the defi coins like YFI, AAVE, UNI, SNX and such, but very risky !
seriously stick to BTC and ETH if you don't know what you are doing, I wish I had kept my BTC when I started investing in crypto years ago and not gamble them for shitcoins ... I would have significantly more now and I would bet its going to be the same story years from now.
