Telegram is trash

[Kezacky]

For investors or anyone, you should not believe what the members of the telegram group say, because we don't know who they are, it's better not to care, except the official admin on the project and this is not a telegram error, because it is common in the cryptocurrency project community on telegram. My advice is to be careful and do not easily trust them.

Lol too many moon boys hyping their bags on telegram groups, some are even paid hypers. I pity newbie investors who just follow hype to buy coins on telegram without further research. Sometimes when I ask strategic questions in Telegram groups, I get banned especially when the question points out a con about the project. I was asking why team keep minting tokens in a telegram group, whereas their Whitepaper states "no mint function" and the next thing, I was kicked out of group in seconds lol.

That's right on the point. So much of these so called signal group or a specific project group full of scheming scumbags trying to rob innocent people who knows nothing. Sadly it's telegram where most of them are under the radar so they could just did what they usually do which is scamming without even worrying about getting banned by the platform.

If there's newbie out there trying to make fortune don't ever follow an advice from telegram like ever because that's just spelling your own doom.

it would be better that way. but sometimes there is information that the team does not convey to the community. even information can be obtained from group members, not from the direct team. sometimes some information that is not profitable for the project will not be shared by the admin. but other, more critical participants could provide better information. but all depends on the context of the information conveyed.

That is Telegram's greatest weakness when they cannot control fake or real phone numbers.  Currently I can spend a few dollars a month to get thousands of fake phone numbers and create telegram accounts easily
This is a major flaw that causes more active spam services to come out and from there we will also have more scam projects.  If you just need to fix this problem, maybe Telegram will be the best social networking app in the world for services as well as user information security.

Telegram is one of the good social media to help a project to be closer to the community,
of course it is not trash, it all depends on the team of the project,
if they are scammers then don't blame telegram.

[Ryushin]

Telegram is only doing its job, the real culprit here are new projects creating telegram group on telegram, the app is just working as intended, scammers are the bad people using telegram as they see fit, most times investors and bounty hunters are to be blame, you can find out the real intent of a project by asking deep questions about project on the telegram group

Honestly I do not understand what the OP said and there is no strong reason for someone to blame telegram if a fraud occurs, it's true as you say if telegram is only a means of communication and of course everything that happens to its users is the sole responsibility of the user, there is no reason for us to blame the telegram, so as a social media user, especially telegram, of course we must be wise in processing the truth about the news or information that exists and not even directly to believe it. and not even blaming the media as it is today.

[jacafbiz]

I think your conclusion about this is flawed, it depends on the channel or group you joined, there are group that censor posts very well because of spams and people don't want you to use your own negativity to affect the decisions of others, I could remember listening to someone post on Qtum then and I refuse to invest in the project and the project did more than 20x, a huge miss for me. Have open mind and do your own research

[SirLancelot]

Telegram is just a platform, it's the people that consist of the group that's making it worse. these bad actors have made Telegram their hub for their Ponzi scheme, scamming activities, pump and dump groups, and scam ICO, because they fully control the group if you go against them you can ban you and kick you out.

I agree, the people are just people there too, I can't blame social media because it plays the mirror role here. The useless questions and wrong accusations can drain the energy of chat managers and I don't think the other users enjoy staying there too.

The reason why often telegram is considered as a cancer to the crypto community is because it enables scammers more than before. Earlier user had to find mail IDs and send emails to them to scam others but now it is particularly easy to scam anyone because you can find their telegram and anyone can message everyone on telegram which means a scammer can message a project owner and offer fake services or lucrative offers and scam.

The worst part is that scammers can rise and repeat without any action being taken against them because they can just change their ID, delete all the messages from the chat (telegram allows deleting chat messages from both sides) and then use a new nickname to scam others.

I think some project team pays hypers to always say positive things about Thier projects and some are investors too that would want to say everything good so as to get more investors to buy while they dump. I could vividly remember seeing such in two or three groups so let's always be careful. Telegram is an avenue of awareness.

Yes, they find people who will hype the project and spread positive updates regarding the project to keep it alive. That's why telegram is not as good as it is before, also, telegram is being used by many scammers that's why we should choose the telegram channel we would be joining with.

[Stedsm]

Well, how can Telegram be blamed for all that shit happening there? They're active enough to even tag a scam as a "Scam" if enough reports have been made by real users. And about those non sense channels and groups, why don't you just leave those groups and also report them? I believe that 95% of the total users in such groups are nothing but bots so there's no point in believing anybody and DYOR is the mantra to succeed anywhere. Trust yourself and leave those mofos' non sense predictions aside.

Their platform is the medium of those messages neither it can be bad or beneficial this is why moderation would be mainly suggested but its a hard thing for telegram itself to filter out which
one is worth and which one is trash thats why the users itself are the ones who should really be careful into dealing with things specially into those obvious frauds.
They arent trash yet they do well served on how should their service should work it is just people do make use of it for their benefit even if its on the negative way.

[Smitty Werben Man Jensen]

Telegram is very helpful, if some people here say trash, then I'm sure that person doesn't understand and blame Telegram,
all of us here have experienced frustration because of a scam project,

[Lizzylove1]

I love telegram. It helps me to understand some hidden agenda of some new projects, and fish out some paid fanatics. Telegram can equally expose weak team through insightful technical bombardment of questions. I simply don't follow the FOMO on telegram, I am responsible for my life.

Teligram is a social yoga medium that allows people to talk or watch with each other. Some people use it badly, but it is really bad for them, and whoever thinks that it is the best kausal, then it is good for him. There are two sides to every thing, good and bad. From here you will find one.

[nomenclatur]

Telegram is a place to discuss new projects and it is fine to build a community on telegram, indeed there is a lot of trash and spam in many ico groups who are also a scam and dead most of them are not so important when the project dies and has failed people to join the telegram group usually want to be closer to the project they are involved in.

Telegram is not the problem mate
You are being subjective here

Telegram is just a tool
The environment, quality of chat does not differ just because it is on Telegram
If the coin's atmosphere revolve around PnD, Scams, Hyip
You can't avoid the fact that the chat will have tons of moonboi that is toxic or MOD that is toxic because the project itself is not genuine

Telegram is just a social media platform, it's not to be blamed for how people use the platform, every crypto projects have telegram groups and majority of these groups aren't active, even if the groups are active you can't judge a project with been active on telegram or not, always have in the your mind that serious teams don't have time to spend on telegram group, they are always busy with development

the effectiveness of the team in a chat is indeed the main highlight, because every question must be answered by the team, and it is true that the team must focus on the project itself and the project team must be able to answer every question from investors who are on a social media channel .
