By CCN.com: Another day, another John McAfee tweet pumping a cryptocurrency project that has alarming red flags. The latest dubious crypto token is called Apollo, an “all-in-one” cryptocurrency with supposedly-private transactions.

CRYPTO DEVELOPERS CALL OUT MCAFEE-LINKED APOLLO
However, according to crypto development firm Jelurida, Apollo’s so-called privacy features promoted are not so private after all.

John McAfee is now become the  known crypto troll and nobody is taking him seriously. I think only news sites use the people like McAffe and faketoshi to make news.

It was idiotic people were buying what John McAfee saying. Even there were bots at some point. Just crazy.

He was getting paid to do this, and also he was buying coins before. That stupid trend made him richer. At least it is over now.

He is an old guy who seeks attention, nothing more. If want to have fun by giving him what he wants, that's fine. Can't blame you but you should also think about the noobs who'll enter crypto via McAffee's suggestions.

When those people get scammed by those shitcoins, they'll go away and never come back.

Now there are a lot of predictions for cryptocurrency on the increase chart, while what happens is the opposite, I have never seen a prediction of cryptocurrency at a declining price, so in predictions we cannot fully trust it.

Nothing new. He is familiar for pumping shitcoins from previous. As far as I know once he said he will not anymore endorse or in other word, he will not pump any shitcoins but still doing the same. Don't take his words seriously because he isn't going to eat his dick ever.

Who wants to buy a pumped coin, people who buy pumped coins should expect to lose their investment the next day, also if this coin have red flags why would people buy it, sometimes i dont understand people.

I don't buy any tokens / coins where celebrities or people like McAfee are involved . There is plenty of coins with ''popular people on board'' , Steven seagal , pewpewdie , Rappers and many more =D Look where the projects at now ....

This dude has already helped pump and dump many altcoins. I have never followed his recommendations but I remember some time ago when I held some LUX coins I had mined before. All of a sudden, the price skyrocketed and I was wondering why. It turned out that John McAfee started rooting for them. Needless to say that after a while the pump ended. Today one can take a look at the charts to see where this coin is, and I can tell you, not very high. The moral of the story is if you are going to follow this guy, do it for short term gains provided that the there are people that still buy into his predictions.

I  seen him  promote several tokens, some goes up really high but most of his prediction said otherwise.  I will be careful if this person appears and promoting another coin or token, since almost all of his promoted coins goes  up a bit and have a huge decline leaving those who followed him and did not sell at the right time bagholding worthless token.

John McAfee for 1 day can write 10 tweets, but the value of his tweets is very low. To be honest, he lost my respect back in 2017. Usually such as McAfee get a lot of money for their posts.

He was one of the guys I followed the most from the first time I met Crypto Coins. I think it's one of the biggest reasons why I'm not better today. Mcafee is an unreliable person!

I can't believe people still fall for McAfee gimmicks in 2019. Apparently his opinion still matters to some, although I am aware the Apollo currency potentials, I just hope the few that buy In don't loose money when the price begins to reverse.

This old guy proved to everyone that he is not going to be serious in cryptocurrency. Once I thought he was a very intelligent man, but that was a long time ago.

At this stage, i do not expect anyone to still think of relying of whatever John McAfee says. he has failed in so many areas. Most of his prediction, if not all, are not working as supposed. He has been acting in his own interest. So think before you take any step based on his advise.

So he's back to this type of business again? Don't be amazed with the pumping tweets that he's making. I like him as a bitcoin bull but I don't like what he does for shilling altcoins that mostly are pump and dump schemes.

Well, it is all about business of making money.  Why should he shill for some project that do not give me profit, or paid him?  We do not advertise or join a campaign that do not promise us payment Tongue.  The higher the payment the better, right?  The sad thing is that, this guy lead those who followed him to bankruptcy and regret.  He know he is an icon and he should be more responsible on what he must advertise.  But sadly it is all about making money for him.
