Is it a good idea to start investing in Cryptos now?

I just wanted to ask a few questions about Cryptos. Is it a good idea to invest in Crypto today or in the near future? Everything is expensive, the climate is going nuts and war is hitting my country pretty hard. How save and reliable is Crypto currency in times like this? Is know a good time to buy some Cryptos with so many ongoing risks.

I wanted to invest in Bitcoin a few times but I was always to scared for the first step of buying a coin. Do you have any tips how you can convince yourself that a Crypto is worth the money and not a a bad thing? I struggle to do the first step by buying the Cryptos and can't even decide which I can take and which not.

And lastly Do you have Crypto currency recommendations for newcomers like me? I try to read different threads here in the subreddit but it's a bit overwhelming and very much information for someone like me l.

Thank you all in advance for your answers and help :)
