Overall, we’d urge you to do your own research if you were to invest in Safemoon. Common investment advice states that the cryptocurrencies which perform the best over the longer term are those with real-world utility, which Safemoon doesn’t seem to have at present.

Nothing is guaranteed, but if you buy cryptocurrency as a long-term store of value, the more “real world” uses it has, the more likely demand and value will increase.
