John McAfee will not promote ICO anymore

But he will have to pay for all promotions he did so far. Same as anyone else. Everyone should research what he is promotion. You cant say I have no ideas what that is I am doing tit just because I get paid.

Last month, he was accused by SEC of promoting an ICO by a team called Pink-Taxi, which allegedly stole intellectual property from a blockchain-based taxi platform called A2B Taxi Token. In response to a user question asking how much he charged to promote that ICO, John said:

My tweets are now $500,000 per tweet. If clients want me to reply to comments, then it is $100,000 per reply. But what is your point? Obviously, people feel that it is worth it. Statistically, each tweet averages over $3 million in revenue for my clients - a 600% return.

As he also claimed that his ICO advisory service charged $500,000 per tweet as well as $100,000 per reply. His website, meanwhile, says that tweets cost $105,000 across the board. Now he claimed that he must cease his public support for ICOs !!!! After becoming the most rich person from his shady behaviors, he decide to run for president of the United States in 2020   

In spite of past refusals, I have decided to again run for POTUS in 2020. If asked again by the Libertarian party, I will run with them. If not, I will create my own party. I believe this will best serve the crypto community by providing the ultimate campaign platform for us.

This man is one of the greedest ever, in my opinion !!

McAfee is an idiot who is not credible. The fact that he no longer supports the ICOs further demonstrates that ICO projects in the future will not have the same potential as before, requiring ICO projects to change to fit into cryptocurrency market in the future.

[sne.su]

It is high time. To such personalities, now, having purchased cheap bitcoin, it remains only to distract yourself by something 2-3 years, and they suddenly become the most influential people in the world, for why should they promote the ICO? 

[lisapunt]

I think he can does whatever he wants, he has so much money so is not a big los for him if he will not be Advisor for Others Icos.

[paramex]

personally, I think if He just made it for his security no more, no less and it is true that SEC threats are doing their things from him.
He's earned a million dollars with the ICO promotion he's done so far. So let's wait for what's going on next.

[daarul50]

People like McAfee should be role models in the activity of the crypto market because the analysis and speculation he did on the price of an altcoin or ICO project never missed, especially when he was speculating about the ICO he was campaigning on several media social accounts. We should be proud because McAfee is not stingy to share his thoughts for us all related to the development and prediction of a cryptocurrency.

[sourish]

Voices like that are hard to shut down. Like he said, he will return with a different solution. Estimations in crypto anyway defy logic due to its volatile unpredictability, so i think this shouldnt really be a setback to anyone.

Everyone that promotes ICOs will have to pay for they when they will get sued for scamming issuing securities out of law designed procedures. He will have pile of charges for sure.

Agree! John McAfee has lot of money, he can do whatever he wants, he is one of the reason of pumps and dumps, only one tweet from him, he can make millions of dollar in just one tweet. I am really disagree on what he is doing, promoting ICO or other coins, just to make money.

[TastyChillySauce00]

Did the ICO's he promoted were good projects? is he was analyzing everything or just promoting?

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.

[khufuking]

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 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 .

[ZZ8ZZ]

Less ICO promotions from McAfee = less crying newbies that they got scammed. I'm not a fan of ICOs and I've never been one, but everyone is entitled to their own opinion. John McAfee found the opportunity to get some easy money by promoting these ICOs and he did it, once the hate bar started hitting new limits, he immediately starting backing off and changing his strategy. I don't hate this guy, but I'm not a fan of him either. People are free to do whatever their want and follow whoever they want, but in the end it all comes to their own due diligence.

[sabine80]

mcafee finally stops and i think it's just fine. they were all bought tweets anyway and i did not listen to him.

[usmanov123]

I think that it's even better without him. Good ICOs like Quark chain, Sparkster or NuCypher dont need his shills anyway. And no need to promote crappy projects. He's been doing paid shills

[fortunecrypto]

That's good its the end of the pump and dump, so many people are looking on Mcafee's post for a coin to hype and with his recent announcement that will stop this game, I'm sure he do not want to face court charges so he is now washing his dirty hands in public, wonder how much money he made doing this thing.

[Btcalimie]

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?

I think it's a wise choice. Preventing being involved is more likely a good move to avoid being affected with the secs mess. Many people already backing out to be safe.

[Geoll29]

I think a decision of one man should not affect the decision of all. We all have our own judgment and we know what is the right thing to do. Many of the people today are already educated so we can make our own choice and be responsible for the outcome.

[Sephire]

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.

[rupesh2]

now he is in news again . he is hospitalized because someone poisoned him . dont know what the hell is happening in world , first this crypto dip now this maccffe incident of stopping promotion of ICOs . If he was afraid then why he promoted ICOs which steal someone else intellectual property . he takes money for tweet , sponsorship is not that bad for money promoting a shit is not sponsorship it is called to help the scammers.
