I'll tell you that this is one of the most influential people! from his words a lot of things depend! To take MTS this token grew very strongly in price, when he said that soon the coin's resistance could grow several times to the interim of the summer! I saw how this coin grew 6 times! Of course, it happens that the projects that he advertises do not grow in price! he recruits a lot of projects, and of course they can not all be successful!

You are right, he has a lot of influence but i am of the opinion that most of his promotion is just for personal gains not for the good of the projects.
lots of this projects he promoted are dead.

Yeah sure I lost some money because of the coin he promotes, I stopped following him since I noticed that they normally pay him to call out those coins and I am happy that he has quit the calling after SEC came for him for promoting those coins. We don't need people who encourage coin pump and dump in the crypto space.

If the project is not good then it will fail for sure no matter who promoted it. I think this is what has happened in this case.

John McAfee is the good influencer everyone know that but it doesn't mean if he is promoting some project than you must invest in that project and consider it will give you profit on investment. Do your own research too about the projects because these influencesrs does not do their promotions for free they charges money for their wotk.

He only receives money and promotes that ICO. simple. Most of the ICCs promoted by mcaffe are shitcoins. Prices go down below the ICO many times. And now almost no one believes him

Getting rich and famous leads to high expenses and they should struggle to cover this expenses, ! I have learnt not to trust promotions by influencers or ICO rates on ICOlists website, only trust yourself. Wink

I think as an advisor McCafée is just doing his job
He promote a lot of projects and not all can be successful

Just like it’s impossible for all amazix project to be immense success
Docademic grew well and so was bobs repairs

I believe it depends on when you chose to pull of your profit

Yes, it's true that he promote coins which have gained some reputation. But he should be more selective about the project he promote not just abot the money they pay him.

Some claims ha it that he does not accept the token he is promoting.

I can add Eristica ICO (https://eristica.com/#advisors) to this list, Eristica was promoted by John Mcafee and Stan Larimer. ICO was finished half year ago and still no any news about token listing.

It's true, many of the ICO'S that he promoted are having bad results right now. He had one that is doing well though, called Docademic. This coin had a 15X increase in price compared to the Ico price.

Docademic also collected not much. However, look what happened to the token price. Although Docademic looked better than KWHCoin and Finacoin. I'm more inclined to not trust his recommendations.
