stop listening to false news

[ir.yance]

I totally agree with you, all the news is fake, those who make the fake news want to destroy the bitcoin price. people who make the news want to buy bitcoins at a cheaper price, they want to take advantage of this situation to make a profit.

[Pamadar]

Yes man, some media organizations are making a lot of anti-cyriptomoney news. And some people who are very panic guys doing same thing. So it cause domino effect

Which will be a doomsday for those who didn't do their homework and allow this false news to exist and be glorified by the whales, fluctuations seems to be very unusual but in fact this things already exist before, bitcoin falls and will rise back again, it will be a great venture assessing what will be the next movements and anticipate to earn much better profits.

Well some of us are familiar with this news from a while now and honestly when this kinda news appear everyone panic instantly and markets are going down even more but like I said it's normal and this will not stop soon.

[richjohn]

I totally agree with you. Most people of the world cannot distinguish between fake and real news. One should always ensure that the news comes from a credible source and not just any XYZ website. A lot of people have fallen victim to fake news.
But, it all comes down to the general awareness level of a person. A person who is new to internet will believe everything he reads, while the one who has been online for years, will have enough wisdom to distinguish between the two.

We are not supposed to believe the false news. We should always think positively about bitcoin. We do not want to be fooled by fake news.

I read some articles about the "fake news" in the field of crypto - about 80% of these news are untruthful or twisted by the media management. It is essential for many news websites to create negative buzz since it gives them more "clicks" and curiosity from the users` side.

[tmpwhore]

I agree that too much false information has been created around bitcoin. This information is confused and creates a negative public opinion around this sphere, but one should not believe everything. Choose the right news.

[muhammedb]

yes its not fair, people go around spreading fake information just because they want to say something which is very bad is better to speak positive than to speak force information.

Journalists and ordinary people behave like this. They need comments, arguments, reviews, likes. This raises their rating. That's why they are interested in posting contentious information.

The current "crash" is caused by one bad "news" after another.   A lot of them are the false or twisted truth.

For example, today, once again "China Full ban crypto".   What the...    Why is it causing another crash??  Why is it even "news"?

It was already banned in China back in September 2017.   All trading platforms suspended trading in September.   Anyone from China who still trade Crypto must be using foreign platforms.   Sure, they reported that China added all crypto exchange sites to Great FireWall.   So what?  These people have VPNs!   When I was in China, everyone who visits foreign sites use VPNs.   Yes, China banned VPN as well a long time ago.   So what?  Everyone is still using it.   Just like ignoring the traffic light is illegal in China, but at every intersection, you will see people ignore the red lights... the truth!   Just because it is "illegal", does not mean no one will do it.   

So just this (one) news of China banned Crypto, it was repeatedly used to crash the Crypto market (4 or 5 times).   Do not fall for it!
1.  Summer 2017, China banned ICO.
2.  September 2017, China banned crypto trading.
3.  November or December?  China became unfriendly to crypto mining (Large-scale miners moved oversea already)
4.  January 2018.  China banned websites of foreign crypto exchanges. (VPN!!!)
5.  Today, "China Full Ban Crypto"...  (Really?)

So what is next?
"China really ban crypto"?
"China really full ban crypto"?
"China really really full ban crypto"
"China will jail anyone who trades crypto"
"China will execute anyone who trades crypto"?
"China will nuke every country who trade crypto"??


Stop spreading this nonsense.    What's done was already done in September 2017.   Nothing has changed ever since.  NOTHING really changed in the last 4~5 months.  

Yellow journalism at its best.  


Same goes for Korean and Indian news.   South Korea did not really ban crypto.  Just one guy wanted to ban it.  It was not approved, nor implemented.   So far they have only added regulations that people can no longer trade anonymously.   So what?   Didn't Coinbase, Kraken, Bittrex etc. US-based platforms all require our IDs and photos?  

India also did not ban crypto.  Just a minister made some unfriendly speech toward crypto.  No real "ban" whatsoever.  

From the look of it, someone or some groups are trying hard to make the prices go down.   The sad thing is, people are falling for it.   The same China "news" was used on 5 occasions to cause the market crash while nothing was really changed or happened.   Korean news was used on at least 2 occasions.    

The bottom line is, let's just ignore all the stupid "news".   Use our brains.   Not hearsay from yellow journalism.   It is getting annoying to have every little "news" to impact the market price.  

Since bitcoin was created, there has been bad news about bitcoin, and the bad news has not killed bitcoin, and bitcoin is still thriving. What we need to do is to identify the authenticity of the messages and then decide whether to hold the bitcoins.

People who do not learn into this, actively pick up false information and distribute it among their friends as a virus. From this, the entire world of crypto-currency seems to them some kind of evil.

[Lannie25]

Ignore those people who spreading the false or fake news about cryptocurrency. Instead of spending time with them you should focus on your carrier as a bitcoiner.

[frenkelebre]

New investors are now considered as headline readers. They just read the biggest text displayed on the news online and that's all they considered panic selling if there are shaky prices on the crypto market.

The things that one should never do in crypto is - listen to what media has to say. Media is always manipulating people's minds about crypto because the banks are not happy with crypto gaining the edge over them. They will always try to FUD crypto unless the banks adopt crypto themselves.

There is news going around everywhere. From reddit channel shills to twitter spammers and FUD shills on bitcointalk. These are the breeding grounds for shills and thus one must take all information from such sources with a bit of salt.

Precisely. As an investor and trader we really need to just skim or read the news with a "hook, line, sinker" attitude. We must read between those lines to figure out what they are really up to since some media outlets are reportedly paid to give crypto a bad shade.

[semarmesem195]

I do not think it's okay to just listen, because by listening to the lie we can give a real review or evidence when people start to be tempted by the lie. Someone will be so easily influenced by the news that we must conclude the news and straighten that the news is false or false.

[tanghere02]

What the OP said is true and the problem is that a lot of people believe in these fake news and keeps on spreading them making some believe it is true. That's why before I react to anything and wake up the next day and see my portfolio all in red, I usually check and find time to read news and compare them if these really are the reasons why the market is down. And everyone should practice that if they are trying to be a good trader too.

[akishang]

I stop listening to those fake news.I never believe in a news without me knowing the facts. I always look for something before believing a fake/false news. Bitcoin was a victim of fake news as well. It just so happen that a lot of people believed it without realizing that they missed something. Bitcoin is a good investment and for them to believe a fake news, its their loss. I pity them because there are a lot of ways to earn money via btc and they are missing it.

Fake news for me is a signal to buy more from the dip for it surely there will be a rebound. That rebound will be the signal to take profit then wait for the fake news once again then buy. Yearly it happens and it is very quite obvious for us not to see it. If you really are a true believer of bitcoin then by this time you should already knew what is fake and what is not, take advantage of the situation and surely you won't be sorry in the end.

[Mickznet]

They used this false news to spread panic to all bitcoin community and other crypto's worldwide to make bitcoin down to zero

Fake news is often done to influence the undecided, it is difficult to influence people who believe in Bitcoin. Fake news is actually preparing for manipulation, traders should follow the media but not believe the news.

People who spread the fake news are mostly people who doesn't invest in bitcoin, they fold their hands while some people were investing now they want the system to crash by spreading unverified news. Bitcoin has come to stay regardless the propaganda.
