I'm a rube with more cash than smarts and was thinking about buying say $1000 of various crypto whatever and then not looking at it for like 5 years.

I fully expect that I will lose all my money but it's not that much to me and it would be sort of a fun hail-mary. What should I buy and uhhh how, because I have never paid attention to any of this poo poo. Sorry for asking basic advice in what appears to be some sort of speculation thread.

okay so I googled IOTA and it's just a fuckin mess. One of the founders has a blog where he claims he built the pyramids using a time machine, I can't tell if it's a joke. Then there was a big paper by MIT about huge security issues with it, and the IOTA guys claimed that it was there as like, a joke, or to catch people who would try to mimic their model. And then Tons of discussion about if it's the future or if it's a scam

I'm don't really know anything about this stuff but I'm probably gonna stay away from crypto for a while if this poo poo is common

googling this it means fear, uncertainty and doubt

IOTA is the best because it's 75% vowels, no other altcoin comes close.
