Stox: Floyd Mayweather, Luis Suarez, Liang Tian
Centra: Floyd Mayweather, DJ Khaled
Cobin Hood: Jamie Foxx.
The Game (Rapper): Paragon
Max Keiser: Maxcoin
Paris Hilton: Lydian Coin

Whats your take on celebrity endorsements with the crypto world? Do you think it actually helps? Question is how many fans actually know and care about crypto to actually invest??

Just because something is celebrity endorsed, doesn't mean it is any good as a product.

For example Floyd Mayweather is endorsing many coins but i doubt he actually knows what they are all about. He just gets paid for a simple shoutout on twitter(which he may not even write himself) and gets paid for it.

Now i actually think that having a celebrity promote your coin means that you have no other way of gaining adopters. If you look at most successful coins, they have not been as a result of a celebrity endorsement.

Look at these celebrities. Do they know a thing or two about the crypto projects that they are promoting? I seriously doubt it. If it is endorsed by Satoshi, that would be another story but if these celebrities are the ones doing the promotion, it won't count anything to me. Paris, Mayweather? Who are these, after all?

I think it is very good. After all, many trust these people and listen to their opinion. It popularitywith cryptocurrencies.
However people should invest very carefully, read their whitepaper throughly, don't invest what you can't lose is the bottom line

this is a great idea because it will make the crypto currency more famous, because people will listen if a celebrity is promoting and people will watch it and they start investing in it.

Just advertising and nothing more.
They don't even understand what was happening.

And certainly before investing in the ico, which is promoting celebrity, think twice.

I think celebrity endorsement is a good thing for the crypto world. They do have a lot of followers and what cryptocurrency needs now is more and more awareness.

I agree adverts like this will make crypto world famous and most of their fans will want to find out what they could have been missing that is unknown to them. But it is bad if anyone would because of this, join a project or contribute to an ICO with the thought that since it is endorsed by a celebrity, then it is most definitely a good project.

I personally do not consider celebrity endorsement as a means for me to trust or believe in a project, in fact, that is when I even get more curious. The crucial thing is to dig deeper on the project and see if it is worth investing in or not.

It's good for the celebs as they are running to the bank with fiat currency, but i would never invest into a ICO on the sole fact that a celeb has said "they like a coin"
It doesn't mean much for a celeb to get featured on the coin unless that celeb is contributing something other than money into the project.

The concept is good, once cryptocurrencies are main stream. Currently it's just pointless as the ave. follower of these individuals most likely have no idea what cryptocurrencies are or do!

Bringing in more awareness to crypto in general is good and Celebrities help with that.
For all your coworkers and classmates how are they going to learn and get interested into crypto?  Celebrities may not be the best way it is A way for people that know nothing about crypto to maybe get curious and read more into it.

I am sure they have no idea on what they are endorsing what the project is all about or how it works. Celebrities will do anything to always be in the news because this  will mean more money in their bank account. And the primary purpose of involving them, is just to give it a face just like how cocacola will bring a celeb to be be a brand ambassador and nothing else is attached just to get paid for their service whether in cash or in kind.

Of course they don't even have a clue as to what crypto currency is. LOL. They are just hired to promote because they have a loyal fan based. So it will have a positive effect on the coins that they are promoting. Those fans will do anything for their idol like Floyd and Paris Hilton. If those two said in their twitter to buy the coins they are promoting, are sure those dumbnuts will get it without blinking eye. That's how influential they are. So its gonna be a win-win for both the celebrity endorser and the coins itself.

We all don't know what's really behind it if they do really invest or do they just got paid. But still this is a good publicity for the cryptos and raise awareness for this new technology. Whatever it will bring, good or bad publicity will still a publicity.

This would just create hype then after the ICO, people would just dump the coin. It's great that they show interest on cryptocurrencies but like any other devs, they're all in just for the money (we all are) so what's gonna be left are shitcoins.

We can't hide the truth that this is a good start for crypto world. Celebrities are a good way of promoting anything even crypto. If you asking how many fans care about crypto, some but not all of course BUT the good thing here, because their celebrity is endorsing it, it will give them curiosity to check, research and invest on crypto which will make an awareness to the outside world not just us who are already aware with the digital currency

I don't think it is good, all it gives is hype .

They add nothing but marketing value but i think it isn't needed when your tech is good.
I stay far away from these.

I think most of these stars are just getting paid for that.
It's all about marketing.
Take a look at all this ICOs..it seems that you "must" have some kind of big star working for you to get some attention.
And its not only about stars from the show business but also big names from other buisnesses.
For instance there is a new project going on for a crypto decentralised bank..change is the name of the project..
and they have the ex CEO from DHL as advisor.
I don't see a big connection with managing a big company for shipping and a crypto bank..but hey he is still the ex CEO of a worldwide
known business. Roll Eyes
Let's just be honest..most of these people are just getting payed to sponsor this projects.
