newbie question

Hi everyone. I have been given crypto a few times on coinbase and I always just transfer it out to cash. I want to try to learn about it finally and maybe invest in something. so I have $100 in litecoin and I want to exchange it to bitcoin on coinbase, is that smart? Idk if I should keep it as what it is or exchange it orrrr. I’m sorry if this question is extremely dumb. I have no clue about any of this it’s just a way that I’m paid and I want to take some interest in it now.
