Do you follow John McAffe and initial coin offers which he is promoting?

I personally don't and I don't like the fact that he can manipulate market just with one twit.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

No I don't either, he ruined his reputation and I read on coindesk that he charges $105,000 per tweet. But according to Mcafee he only promotes the projects he believes in which seem to be a lot and I highly doubt he believes in them, he's just raking in easy money. I followed him for a while because I thought his comments on blockchain, security etc we're interesting but he's making a fool of himself and I'm glad he's off the Universa team as an advisor, I can't really take a project with his name on it serious anymore.

I agree with you, market should not move on tweets, we need market to be stable and mature and safe for investing and trading for longterm, volatility is also good as it provides many trading opportunities, on the other hand manipulation by paid personalities or media is not doing any good to the market but harm.

I love John Mcafee, he is my great mentor because i believe in his ideology about cryptocurrency. I understand him more than many people do. He does not force you to pay him money because he already rich. What he does is to help promote your project to lime light. What is the sheep about that.

John McAffe will have some predictions, but he's doing stupid things recently, and no one can stop the market. Even if some projects have good teams and concepts, it's hard to work when the community is bad.

Everyone is here to make money, and if John McAfee is in a position to do so, then so be it. As for the sheep, why be one, get out and get away. We are the ones making those expensive tweets possible!

as i know he has money for each tweet that he does, and it is a really decent money, 100k usd or smth, and he cant know everything, technically it is impossible to investigate each project he promotes i think

Nobody wants it, but the markets are very fragile. Just prevents a strong crypto currency market to this.
McAffe will be trivial when the markets get stronger.

I personally don't and I don't like the fact that he can manipulate market just with one twit.

He can't manipulate it. He got lucky because he made a few picks just before the massive bull run. Whether the coin was promoted by him or not, almost every altcoin made an explosion starting from the summer/2017 to the last winter.

He has a reputation (even more) now because he already had a relatively big follower base even before the crypto craze began. Luckily for him things went smoothly and amplified his reputation even more. (And made some cash along the way.) He is an old guy who doesn't give a fuck for anything anymore. He is just having fun. Don't take him too seriously.

I personally don't and I don't like the fact that he can manipulate market just with one twit.

I've even read somewhere that he is paid something like 100k$ to shil lcertain coin. Although I like him the way he built his businesses and all that, he is not the guy I will take my advice from, knowing he is paid. Even if he wasn't paid you can clearly see how he can manipulate the market, he could sometimes shill some coin for his own profit. The best thing is when I saw a guy create a bot that will look at his twitter feed and whenever he shills the coin it will auto buy it at exchanges to dump it later when other people buy it, which is kidna funny.

Sometimes he has good point and points out good coins/ projects. But sadly most of the time it is not the case which is why I don't trust him blinldy

Anyone following John McAffe needs to lose his money as that person is foolish enough to trust a person who charges few thousand dollars per tweet. The coins he tweets aren't his recommendations but he is paid for it. He is nothing more than a shill.

Are you John McAfee?
He doesn't care about anything except money and to fill his pocket as much as he can, he doesn't really care about any of these projects as long as they are paying him to make twit about them.
You said he does help projects and yet you don't know what I meant when I said "how to make a sheep"  Roll Eyes

True. While we still rely on his words, he will still be a good marketing target for every scam ICO. So we just need to ignore and neglect him and his words. And be sure to unfollow him right now if you haven't done it yet.

I personally think this man has lost his soul to money, what he is doing is illegal and I think he knows it, this is one of the market manipulations we are talking about some rubbish projects he had helped to pump and some people git trapped in it, though the main blame is with those sheep following him as a lamb to be used for sacrifice
