Is twitter a good source of info?

[jostorres]

It is actually a very good source for news and most social media sites and news sites all have their twitter handle where they share one or two information to the public, so if you want to create a twitter handle for cryptocurrency news, you can go ahead, but you have to really try to get followers, because if you don’t build your follow page, there is no way that you will get people to patronize your page, it is not like Facebook page where you can promote your page to public and does not have to stress that much to start manually building followers, so another place where I will advise that you look into is also to build a social media page on Facebook, I think it will be faster to reach out to the public through that than the twitter handle.

Twitter is indeed one of the media that has a long life, many users in it so I think the social media crypto on Twitter is quite helpful. and if he wants to create a media on Twitter I hope the news presented in the form of a good article to read and attract the interest of people

In my own opinion, using social media sites like Twitter, Facebook and etc is not a good source of of information because most informations that i see in those social media sites are all about advertisements in their projects. I think will be better if you just create an article or a website about bitcoin news, and make it updated everytime just like a real news article.

What's the point of this? You aren't a reputable person that could make a move into the crypto sphere. Try writing an article instead and post it on your blogging site or whatsoever platform do you want to use as long as you get the interest of the people you might have a chance to expand your news somewhere. People don't like to follow if you are not a high profile yet just so you know.

Yes twitter is a great place to find valuable content and news from official accounts. Most of the well known people already have a twitter account.
But I would not recommend you to create a new account just for the sake of giving out information because there are already official sources present so why would anybody bother to follow you just for the sake of information.

[bitbunnny]

Personally, I don't think that any of social media is good source of Bitcoin related information. You can find really everything there, so called Bitcoin ecperts, fake news, bad predictions and etc. Information are usually not reliable and I would not recommend to get them seriously.  Some find social media helpful but here on forum you will find much better information.

Did you see what the current so far us president was doing on twitter yesterday during the former representative to ukraine? While they were on the stand questioning her trump was tweeting things calling her a liar. The speaker even mentioned this to her and causing a disruption to the hearing.
It can be a used as an alert system, a bargaining chip and a tool for throwing an election. But a good source of information?
It would depend on what one views as a good source. Reliable and trustworthy. I would disagree. The facts can be misinterpreted in so many ways you would need a lie detector to get the proper information untainted.

I prefer reading through articles rather than Twitter, due to how reliable some are like Forbes, etc. I don't usually use Twitter, but I am not generalizing that it isn't a good source of info. There are much more efficient way to state updates about Bitcoin, including your opinion also.

I do not like twitter as a source of information because it is full of rumours, there are always people trying to tell you in which coin to invest and why their coin is the best but they never show you any arguments.

It is easy for some to say that I should ignore those people but they are everywhere, so I prefer to just watch the charts and see what the price is doing and if there is a significant movement then I begin to look for the reasons behind it in this forum.

Twitter have potential giving good information about bitcoin because many people use twitter looking for which one good investment way, now twitter have allowed for promoting bitcoin and crypto world to get many investor for the future, I keep promoting bitcoin and altcoin on twitter looking for people want to invest with bitcoin and ICO project.

[xen1oph]

Yes, I think Twitter is suitable for these purposes. I would also use Telegram

[hello_good_sir]

No. Whenever I want to hear about the latest new news, I don't go on social media platforms like Twitter or Facebook where everything has a lot of bias, and instead, opt for a trustworthy news site where I can get a good source of information.

From the look of it, I think your twitter looks like a place where you are linking the newest news articles, which in my opinion, feels useless.

I think only Twitter accounts that have a good reputation and also Twitter have people who have long worked in the crypto world that can be followed and trusted as a source of cryptocurrency information. if you are new to cryptocurrency then I think it will be difficult to get followers. Many cryptocurrency users use social media like Twitter and Facebook to share info about cryptocurrencies. so in my opinion making Twitter as cryptocurrency information is not wrong.

It depends as I don't depend much on twitter although they are reputable or not, still I don't agree that we should trust them as they can say whatever they need to say and to show to people for them to impress their followers, so aside from twitter it is better to ask in their community too and to update  or ask about the current status of their project, also doing research alone is a good one.

So far the information or news about cryptocurrency on Twitter is very balanced. but sometimes the hoax or negative news tries to drop the value of bitcoin, but I'm not very influential. Twitter's tranding topic also lets us know what is being talked about or preached on a daily basis.

that's the right thing you don't have to be hooked with some news, selecting tweets is important because there are definite sources of information on Twitter and can be used by readers, plus Twitter is one of the social media that has a long life. but you still have to equip yourself too

Social medias like twitter are a good source of news, you just need to check what you read on twitter at another sites to confirm the fact or to conclude it's just bias. The same goes for crypto news sites too, because biased news are everywhere on the internet.
What I like about twitter is that it's a very dynamic social media where you can update yourself about the daily news very quickly.

yes you really better if asking about the crypto project directly ask the project community. but what is discussed here is about crypto in general about price developments or also about certain coins. at the moment most crypto users have twitter and they use it to share information about crypto I think it doesn't matter. and of course we can also rely on this bitcoin forum to find information. I think the more sources of information the better.

We cannot actually get away with these news concerning false market manipulation techniques in twitter since they are providing freedom of speech in a higher level. Though the protection we could have is the capability for us to filter the people or news sections that we follow. In this case, limited information that we could trust could be provided and we can keep ourselves away from the false manipulation techniques of these people.
