I wondered the same thing when I first snagged OHM. I started small, tested it out, did my own research.
With all things in the space, I'm not being snarky or snide when I say: do your own research. That means check the contracts, check the audits, look for indicators of scam (e.g., much lower TVL and than market cap, etc.).
That said, I did my own research and kept buying OHM. My bag is now up to 25 OHM (staked - 3,3), and I wish I had bought the flash-crash last night that was caused by leveraged traders doing risky things.
