John McAfee will not promote ICO anymore

[rupesh2]

It is probably best that Mcafee not pump any ICOs or other coins. Buying into any ICOs just going by someone's tweets and without doing your own due diligence is not going to work well.

But for maccaffe it works perfectly , on his tweet any coin be popular after a series of tweets . in december he realized his power and started tweeting coin of the day then coin of the week news . asap he used to tweet coin would be pumped like a binance listing . but this thing worked only for few weeks , later he moved to promote icos .
so those people who just buy anything on advice of any youtuber or twitter shiller then it is a lesson for them .

Thank God.

He is just pulling a lot of investors on his side which is really not a good choice of the investors but the choice of him. We know there are still many idiots who just relies on celebrities like this not knowing what they are really entering.
It might be the best decision he will ever made for the good of those ICO's. Give others a chance and just let the investors do their research into what ICO is really the best for them. Take their own risk.
I bet there will be pump with other ICO now thinking the tokens that he is supporting will get dumped soon.

John McAfee is one of the cryto-celebrity nowadays, as we saw few months ago. John McAfee keep promoting some ICO before and have also personal analysis about different coins before.
Now, based on his tweet: https://twitter.com/officialmcafee/status/1008957156819914752

He will not promote anymore because of SEC threats.

For my own opinion, it is good. Because it will avoid pump and dump, and the decentralization feature of cryptocurrency will remain, no one can manipulate or control the price of each coin.

Any ideas guys? It is better decision? What are your thoughts?

It's a good gesture from government to minimize market manipulation on crypto market space. If someone's twitter dictates the price of one asset it will inflate the crypto bubble uncontrolled and will lead to many people hurt in the end.

I wouldn't trust the guy who tells that he will eat his own penis. He can say what ever he wants. I'm not even sure that his poisoning is real. It can be faked to gain more users or promote himself.

The guy tells that he will be US president. Sure...
But if it's true then it's good that he doesn't promote scam projects anymore.

What a fishbone removing to our neck  . I like like there's no much more shills for him in either ways he will wrote an articles which is not totally healthy because he use to review and post some ICO's that he knows is good? or it was intended because he was paid for it who knows i am just building my mind into reality what is the current situations nowadays.

I think John McAfee just do it because he is getting flamed by others we all know how big the payment for him just to do a review for a certain ICO. But not all the ICO he promoted become successful some failed also this is why he is getting threats and etc etc. However McAfee is still good at doing reviews and analysis.

I think, such famous men shouldnt to find  in ICO recommendations. because the failure of the ICO later on will both shake that person's confidence and become an obstacle for future ICOs. also the advice of people in their field is very important for ICO. they should be taken into consideration.

[rohitkaira]

I think that's his choice what he wants to do but whenever he promoted ICO's people should be using their own brains before investing or pumping or dumping of any project, certainly he is very poplar in cryptocurrency space, one person cant make big dent to any industry.

[TastyChillySauce00]

Isn't most of ICO now forbid the joining of US citizens, what different it makes if SEC gives threats or not ! . I really do not get it .

He just promoting, never I see the ICO he promoted turns out to be an amazing investment but an ordinary ones, he's just an ordinary man like anyone else but popular so he don't know which of the project could be really succesfull and here
I just curious whether he has forgotten his dickline or not seeing the market turns out the opposite to what he has predicted lol.

I was in of of the ICO he promoted lately, and I can tell you the outcome was amazing, to be honest beyond amazing .But I am sure it is just because of the hype not because he spotted good project, but agaon what is not about hype in most ICOs .

I guess I missed that one and was surely out of my radar, but I kinda agree with you, the hype affect the whole project and people who get involved aswell. John known to be a popular rich person so it's not a strange thing that people will follow his steps or even his saying
Just like when Bill Gates says a thing or two and people are freaking out about it, even media publishing it repeatedly.

[Zeke_23]

this was highly affects the crypto world, but be patient as he said. I think he has some plans. let's just hope that he will continue to stay on crypto world with us.

[Duogembrot]

it looks like john mcafee is not too fond of and is not willing to support ico anymore because maybe john mcafee is made upset by some ico he supports so it makes him better not to mention anymore about ico.

[Rejinx]

He due fabricated it championing his guarantor no deeper, no fewer and it's aright that the SEC risks is behavior their abstraction away of him. He already fabricated a billion of dollars with that ICO's promotions so he's also worthy now.

[decibel1337]

Guys, that's some good news right there – John has some seriously bad publicity following him around – I'm glad that he's not supporting ICOs no more – the general public's opinion on crypto might actually improve because of that

[cchub]

He should move to another country and keep shilling. He could live in an island that has Internet access. Why caring about SEC if they don't have jurisdiction over foreign countries?

[BTCdude007]

I can't understand John McAfee good intentions or bad, I think he's very cunning, remember how he made pampas of coins.

[babos8383]

all of which he promoted ico was gaining a lot of money, and you could know where to invest. too bad he won't do it anymore.

[crypto1nvest]

Finally!!! I'm so tired form him. He only manipulated the market and promote some shitcoins for money. He just uses people .

[santouao]

It is better that he decided to stop promoting initial coin offerings because some people think if John McAfee promote the project people will think immediately that the project is good and worth to invest but the reality is people will last to appreciate the project by the concept or goal of a coin or token.

[wilberthh]

I think it is such a sad thing. Most of the ICOs he promoted always succeed and makes investors gained a lot of profit afterward. I've never invested any of my money into his promoted ICOs though (which I still regret to this day). Don't forget that this market is fueled by hype, regardless the project is good or not, the only thing that matters is the money. And John McAfee, he knows what he's doing, and he also knows how to make those people put money into his words. Actually, in my opinion, it would be better if he can still shill those ICOs.

[duonghi99c88]

Most of the ICOs he promoted turned out to be either scams or failures and a lot of people lost their money invested in them. If the SEC takes any action against McAfee, then I am going to support them. And don't forget the fact that this guy initially opposed the concept of crypto-currency before making an u-turn.
