XRP was caught manipulating the social networks with fake accounts to shill XRP coin and post false positive feedbacks about it. On Twitter were many fake accounts detected and deleted for their abuse to maximize the price of XRP in an illegal and shady way. At least 8,000 Twitter fake accounts were detected.
Another bad attempt from XRP and a red flag to avoid investments in XRP.

Illegal and shady activities will decrease the reliability of the coin but it is also normal for big coins to be a wall against such threats. Investings in XRP will not be affected with this news but some coin groups already claimed this FUD for their own profit.

I think a loss of trust will always result in lower prices because people are going to sell. Trust is an important factor if the devs are honest and making good decisions. Actions like this show how XRP is only trying to maximize their own bags profits (because they sell shitloads of XRP all the time) but they don't care for investors and long-term.

But was this an action developed by the foundation? Unfortunately, XRP has been showing itself to be a totally centralized project. And it is increasingly acting more like a mega-corporation. This type of action is widely used by the various Tokens created whose sole purpose is pump and dump. Right here in the forum, there are several opportunities in this regard. The famous bounties.

Again Ripple made its job and tried to fool everyone in social media. Manipulating the markets is possible with fake number,but manipulating the social media is not same thing. Social media is full of trolls and deep thinkers but Ripple wants to fool this place. Something should not be right in this lines.

I will say its basically normal when it comes to such coins most do a kinda of shardy turn over to spice things up and create hype of the coin but the most important thing you should do is learn the coin potentials and its developers

Not only on social media but you can see some fake accounts created by ripple shills in here. I have seen that so many times these accounts were always creating shilling thread for ripple and i will not feel any surprise to see that.

They are capable of doing that not only in one social media, in fact, but they can also do it here, they have the resources and they know that people have a price, I'm just glad that we only have one Ripple in our midst three more of this kind of project and cryptocurrency will be diluted.

this is not new!

ever since fully centralized coins started showing up we have been seeing a lot of cases exactly like this where they pay to be advertised with false information all over the internet so that they can pump their useless centralized token and make millions from such pumps, usually they have premined coins to ensure their profit too.
XRP is only one of many that are doing it and it may not even be the biggest. ETH and DASH are the biggest that have been doing this for the past 3 years at least.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

So many dirt is connected with Ripple. And "Ripple army" is a proof of that.
Does someone know if they really paid to Coinbase to get listed?
And really they threatened people who spoke against Ripple?  Grin

Can't say that I'm surprised by this and Ripple isn't the only one doing this.
How many other cryptocurrency projects are giving people incentives to share positive news on social media?

I'm glad that they got caught though and I really hope that people would at least think before blindly trusting posts on social media.

I do not think this is a authentic news. Ripple, the third largest token by marketcap, cannot and there is no necessary for it do such stupid things to manipulate the market. Ripple is already established coin and is winning the hearts of the people across the globe. It is also mindful that such illegal and bad activities will bring down itself to the level it may not rise again.

that is exactly why so many coin ranking websites exist specially those that on top of ranking give some feedback and so called analysis on the said coins. for example all these ICO sites are getting paid to advertise them and 90% of the things they say is false because they were paid.

it is a good thing though. since as we see more of these cases people stop trusting them blindly.

For sure it will decrease price if more investors saw that issue.  Because it's not a proper way advertising and the sad things on it is moslty are fake accounts that convincing people.  So for sure there will be more people that will become disappointed about it.  Because it's  looks like XRP now are surrounded by scammers.

I'm not surprised for the coin that is centralized and always in the news for manipulation. No wonder it keeps trying to out place etheruem in the second position because of false records.

They have been alive thanks to manipulation for so long, I don't think social network is any different for them.
I mean after all they do manipulate their own coin as well and try to make sure their coin looks valuable but in reality the coin itself is totally worthless.

XRP has ZERO value, all those Ripple and ashton kutcher and ellen and banks and transactions are floating around like Ripple is doing something great for XRP, all of those work for the company Ripple but the coin XRP is getting none of that so they have been manipulating the traders from day one, its not a shock that they have shills that support them on social media as well.

One day people will realize what type of shitty coin they are and will act just as USDT and will stop using it as much as they can, nobody will trade it and they will slowly die.

When a coin is centralized then it will get manipulated by the people who were created it and will take profits from it.

Their years of shady, malicious activities and thievery will not go unnoticed in the future. Most already know (on BTT) XRP is the king of scamcoins and given enough time, scams will expose themselves as scams.
