Bad "good" news.

Friends, the news background on the crypto market has been very active lately, and in a rather positive way, but not every good news is true. How does this affect your investments and strategy on the market? How to protect against fakes?

If you want to avoid those fake news then just believe with your own prediction, because all news spreading out about bitcoin are all prediction but bitcoin drops this Month and that is not fake so we need to decide on our own now and not to rely on those fake news or prediction that has been no assurance.

What is important is to be careful of the source of the news in question and make sure you always do your own due diligence when it comes to verifying the news to be true. However, when it comes to news, I really do not always pay much attention as I feel the market has not matured enough to be responding to fundamentals, so in this case, I put more focus on the price action instead until further notice when it comes to long term investment.

Friends, the news background on the crypto market has been very active lately

after November 15th the news channels became very active and all the time they published news about the bitcoin war and the great dump that the market suffered, I kept thinking if those news that they published was not increasing the sale of panic. It's always good to keep up with the news.

If you buy a coin and then you hear that the coin is going to have a hard fork or a bug, you already know that it will be time to sell or buy, this is to say that it is important to follow the news and it will depend on the person to analyze if the news is good or not and which strategy will use

doing research

Regarding the news about the cryptocurency lately it seems difficult to guess which one is right or not I think only with self-confidence and smart predicting coins, which you have to invest in the exchange market.

Protect yourself not acting by impulse. Never believe at first on any news you see, doesn't matter if it's on the television, on the radio or on the internet. Don't follow panicked people on their actions. If you really believe on what you are investing and see its potential, you won't fall for fakes or bad news during the hard times, you will be always one step ahead.

And if you make a choice based on news you see, be sure it's not an impulse you are going to regret later.

Indeed, many investors make news as a benchmark for selling and buying bitcoin or altcoin. They have the notion that news is one of the biggest factors that change price movements. As for recognizing and distinguishing the right news and false news that depends on each person, there is someone who receives a message every time they will ascertain the truth of the news and there are those who receive a message so they will decide to sell or buy without convincing the truth the news. Me myself to look for information about cryptocurrency I only focused on searching in cointelegraph, I guess cointelegraph is a neutral media and far from making fake news.

I guess you really have to double check and read between the lines. I agree that there are a lot of fakes news because writers doesn't do any validation, they will readily roll it out that sometimes you really doubt everything you read on crypto related websites. For me the best source is here in this community because if some fake news are released you can easily read it here and then there will be loads of debates and discussions. So you can weight whether to buy those news or not or be emotionally affected or you can just let it sit it out and do nothing.

Again due diligence is your weapons against this FUD around. And listen to the overall sentiments of the community and I'm sure that you can come up with your best decisions.

Without good knowledge, everyone can fall in fraud. To avoid scams, fraud we need to do own research using our knowledge. I am caught by fraud because when I didn't general knowledge. And I learned something from that session, so we should study to avoid fraud.

How to protect against fakes?

Basically do your own research.

If some tell that Elon Musk buys Ethereum, see on his public statements about it. Search on twitter (but make sure you didn't find fake accunts with that name), search on blogs, search on reputable news agencies.
If somebody tells that certain bank or institution plans certain service, check that bank's pages, social media or even ask their support.
..Something like this.

Especially if you want to invest based on certain news, you have spend some time and effort to make sure everything is all right.

I agree. It is very important that we do our own research and not believe in anything we see or read on the internet right away. However, these days it is getting a bit harder and harder to determine authentic news from the fake ones. That said, a little self research do not hurt and often works.

I very much agree that many media are now ignorant, and you follow their footsteps and even let you go bankrupt. Independent learning and research are the best ways. It is hoped that blockchain technology can solve the authenticity of media information as soon as possible.

There is nothing you can do about the media that are posting fake news, except ignoring them and doing what you believe is right. There will always be fake news, but always make sure you’re not relying on one source only. If you keep on relying on one source to get the news then you will make a huge mistake. Add other sources and know if they are saying the same thing.

[jojowar]

Make some analytical research before you fall on a trap. There are many news in social media that are fake so that they will encourage people to invest on them.

If you are a type of investor which do focus out on fundamentals then it is always been preferred to have multiple source rather than sticking on a single one.
Yes, anytime they can fake out and once you do believe then it would surely cost you some money or investment.

Fundamentals doesn't really give a guarantee that it can give any effects in the market directly. Either it would happen before or after or nothing at all.

[sclmte]

first, I can tell a bad news I know according to a recent article in magazine, almost half of 2017 is cryptocurrency ICO project have already been Died! actually because the crypto market is still struggling until now. and about good news a cryptocurrency market is updated bitcoin cash at all time low, and falling back in a mid week, bitcoin is evaporating and EOS melting will waves ride high continues to fall back as the week goes on. and hopefully the market volume will continue to grow and gradually increase.

[gadimbrut]

bad news sometimes good sometimes does not depend on luck, the news greatly affects the price movements in the cryptocurrency market such as now the crypto price has decreased and continues to fall so that the price of bitcoin is only $ 3200 as the price decline will continue

[Suyeah]

I think the only essential point is: Are there new blood coming to the market?

If the news isn't contributing to this, it won't influence the fact of bear market and decline.

[gamer4156]

In every matter you cannot believe anyone. Specially in online marketing or crpto field do not believe anyone. There are a lot of scammers everywhere in online field. You should not be greedy, scammers are living due to these greedy people. It is very difficult to earn money now a days. You should do proper research and think with mind not heart to take any decision. Financial matters needs special attention.

It is a waste of time to try to base our decisions about in which coin to invest based on the news, if you want to make sure that a news that you are reading is true and not fabricated that is fine, but you should not rely on the news to make investments especially when the news take some time to be published because that means that the market probably already reacted to the news while you were away and you will not be able to enter the market before that happens, this is especially true in a market like this one that moves so fast.

People need to be more skeptical about what they read on the internet since anyone can say whatever they want without fundament and without having to bring any evidence to support of their words.

Don't get swayed by what you hear and see in this crypto world. Every person behind every crypto news has their own different agenda but only one aim, and that is to gain massively and to conquer all by acquiring others' assets. You have to learn how to weigh things out. I suggest you study the market on your own, starting from the basic, and assess how you can use it to your advantage.

Basically, there will always be a lot of good news in the crypto world popping up, but sometimes there is also a lot of bad news, even many who spread false news. I think that is part of the way they do to take good opportunities generated by the news at market prices. So the only way we have to do this is to do our own research.
