Coin/Token Shilling, Is it really that bad?

[tins]

That's one of the ways to fomo a coin, the previous example I saw on chatbot of bcc-e (dead), many people commented that some altcoin on exchange will increase. Naturally, many people will buy them and of course the coin will increase in price.

Shilling Is a vital marketing action done to draw in new investors to your project utilizing the green candles as pointers. Indeed, even a significant number of us here by implication shill bitcoin on the grounds that we adore and put stock in the crypto project and accept that extension will accompany adoption.
Shilling may not be bolstered but rather its a typical event in cryptocurrency.

We have already seen in the past that some influencers have used this method already to pump their bags then dump to their followers that is why when we see/read someone shilling a coin or token, the usual reaction for most of us is to avoid it. But what if what's being shilled is also one of your bags? Would you say that it is bad and people should avoid it? I guess not.

I think many of the top cryptos today (even bitcoin) has been shilled at some point. This makes shilling not necessarily a bad thing. So what should be done when we see a coin/token being shilled? You can either ignore or dig deeper and see what makes it unique (and profitable).

It might be considered bad because it sways individuals especially newbies to fomo into  a coin they might not have prepared to venture into but then almost everyone in cryptocurrency does this indirectly. Including the big coin CEOs

The problem with shilling is that it tends to promote with the goal of enriching a few bag holders at the expense of others, it often ignores the usefulness (if any) of the coin. No value proposition, more of deception.

Most altcoins today experience shilling and dropping after the dropped value of BTC. However it is normal and I think that actually altcoin prices a=have been increasing, but they now drop in a certain amount. Well, this is kind of blundering condition. However, I personally agree that this is not the season of altcoins and they will grow again someday.

Shilling can be disguised as lies or facts, we have to differentiate between the two, there are people shilling some coins, it's because the token really has potential in the market but lacks marketing and some are shilling a particular coin because they are bag holders of that coin you really have to do your own research.

there are also coins or project that arent really promising but the owner will do anything in order to promote it , they sometimes hire a manager to run a campaign on promoting his project/coin  and we btt users are the ones that promote it but this does not mean that we all users are shilling it  . most of us are only silent about what we are promoting  . the signatures that being displayed on our account/profile are doing the job

Depends on how you shill it, all coins needs some shilling and everyone should be proud of the coin they are supporting but if you are doing bad shilling then you are hurting the coin you support more than helping them. If you open a topic stating "this coin is by far the best and will be bigger than bitcoin" then nobody will take you seriously, no coin will ever be bigger than bitcoin and its only a lie you tell to yourself if you really believe it.

However, if you support it like "this coins blockchain does something no other blockchain does" and talk about the unique way that coin separates itself from all other coins then you can actually get people to listen to you. Do your shilling professionally and get good replies and maybe new users, do it bad and you will put people off from the coin you like.

Of course, you are a holder so obviously you won't say bad things about that coin.

The thing is that most coins that are being shilled million times doesn't have the fundamentals. That's why they just resorted to some shilling around that community. And we can smell a far if the coins being shilled are shitcoin or not. Probably need ignored it though, but if you research and it's just a total definition of shitcoin then we should stay away.

Many people on social media with many followers always seem to endorse several altcoins. Maybe this is good but it can also be bad because not all followers understand about the altcoin that endorsed. If these influencers do that without payment and only give perspective to their followers it might be good

I would say Shilling is an order of the day in crypto space, it is so frequent, so it shouldn't be an issue, once you see such, you don't need to FOMO in. All you need do is to carry out your research to really know if the coin in question is worth your resources.

[SMOKEU]

coin/token shilling is not bad at sometimes, specially when you have it  but if the coin is just new then research more about the project and if you're contented/convinced then must invest and just take profit when its enough for you.

Most influencers that you see are just after the money too, they are paid to shill projects and does not care about their followers provided they get their money, and this followers too will just blindly take part in the project too without making any research, that is why we can still assist them from our own part to keep reminding them to carefully choose projects they pick interest in by doing some research on them.

People should not just follow such influencer’s word, but further do research, if any influencer really cares about his or her followers, they can still be smart in playing the game by still advising their follows to make research, just like tobaccos would warn that smokers are liable to die young even when they are advertising their  cigarette. They can just employ this method too.

we cannot say that you can't create money doing that pump and dump schemes but it is way very very risky specially for people who's just getting their feet wet in the crypto space. One can really create massive amount of mon ey doing it. But just like what they say, great reward comes with greater risk.

With taking the big risk for doing the same thing it can be rewarding but if you are not really good doing it you also needs to accept the accompanied risk can really be damageable to your investment, those who's doing such things and gaining success are people who understand the drill and willing to embrace whatever the results can be.

Everyone one time or another have shilled their favorite coins, especially if there is a thread that asks you what coins are you supporting or what coins have a good potential in the market, the shilling is not that bad at all provided that it is backed by a good product and platform and it is trading in a good exchange and volumes are always high.

[darewaller]

A fast player would not completely ignore or condemn the group that is shilling the coin, if I don’t have any investment in the coin yet, and I see that there is a possibility of them succeeding in creating the pump for it, what I just do is to quickly invest in the coin, and then join them in shilling the coin.

I did not come to the crypto currency to look or sell groundnut, I came to the cryptocurrency industry to make some money to meet up my needs and have some little investment, so whatever way I can make money legally through crypto, I would surely support it, I know many people will quote that aspect of legality, I don’t think shilling is scam, it is just some players being smart in making money LOLO. Anyone that sees it as bad can give reason why please?
