A reminder about the media

[Darker45]

If anybody wishes to avoid stressors, it is always best to avoid the media. That's always generally true. That also applies to people who are trying to monitor the Bitcoin market. But there are two sides now because there are already a number of crypto-centered media. If you read Bitcoin-related news in traditional publications, you'd expect that they're biased against Bitcoin. On the other hand, however, if you read news in crypto publications, you'd also notice how they're biased toward Bitcoin. So there's really no objectivity at all. You better stick to your own way of assessing the market.

These media predictions is like a cricket toss with only two possibilities. It can come true also but you are right that these are not reliable. One should do his own research before investing in any coin.

Though this news is positive, we need to consider not following it blindly instead doing some personal research and not rushing to invest would be good. Right now we need to be careful not to fall into the trap of scam exchanges because the more they offer weird freebies, the more they have some big plan to steal our money in the future. except for those that are truly legit that won't gonna try anything to harm their refutations and continue serving their users the best thing they can offer to them. Also, we need to know how to distinguish hype news from real one so that we can avoid not to be carried away when investing.

I have to say that it’s not easy for many to realize what is media and what is not a media. Like you see tv news and understand that’s media, or a newspaper and understand it's media, but influencers on twitter is sort of a media as well, they share "information" but actually it’s their opinion.

Unfortunately people do not realize this and see it and just invest accordingly, but the reality is that hype or fud for crypto based on something you read is not a good way to do it. The best way would be making sure that you end up with investing based on the research you do yourself, that way you would be sure if it is going great or doing terribly and you would know the difference.

Yeah, my life is now at peace when I stop seeing news, it makes me outdated sometimes but it gives me peace of mind so I don't care about it anymore. If I would like to know some news it is easy to search in any search engine but a true one is hard to find, before I uses Twitter to gather some info if I am so invested in a topic but now many people uses it for their own advantages, maybe try reddit as an alternative to Twitter. All in all, media nowadays prioritize their ranking and prioritize money before giving us true and reliable information.

Sometimes I really need to cross-check still some news even from some popular article sites. You never know if those were paid articles just to fake out the whole issue though I am sure it will cost a lot if those platforms f'd up their stuffs. This is why I don't have that "favorite" news site to rely on since there are always those news sites that have their headlines either "too exaggerated" or covering something up.
As much as I love to watch and read news, I am still skeptical to what I hear or read.

Stay strong and don't follow the media

All those "crypto news" have only one meaning: bring clicks, therefore money, to their websites. They don't actually care about bitcoin. I stopped reading anything price related a long time ago because it's completely pointless and a waste of time.

Media houses don't give a damn what Bitcoin price might be tomorrow. They care about numbers of clicks and money from ads.

Ever notices how so many media houses go quiet on Bitcoin during the bear market but then start making daily news about Bitcoin when it goes up and most of the content is usually just FUD with so many clickbaits.

Very true, as you said, most media never care about the price of bitcoin, the media also never care about the popularity of bitcoin, most of all the media are only looking for their own profit, they are only looking for clicks and money from advertisements, there are only a few media that care about the currency crypto money and teaching about the basics of crypto, for now in my personal opinion only Twitter and telegram care about crypto currency, because they want to provide news about crypto currency, while other media I don't trust because they only think about their own benefits .

Which is why less and less people care about the traditional media as we already know what is going to be their reaction to several topics including bitcoin, if bitcoin is in the middle of a bull run then it is a bubble that will soon burst, if it is crashing then bitcoin is finally dying, and if it is not moving then no one is interested in bitcoin anymore, and with that in mind it makes no sense for anyone to listen to them when we know they will be against bitcoin regardless of what it is happening in the market.

The media loves star news. If someone or something falls, they also blow a kick .

Bad news sells more so the media will always put more resources into broadcasting that news as it'll bring more views to their channel. Goodnews aren't of much interest to people as people always want to know the wrongs happening in the world instead of the rights. An example is when people search about cryptocurency or what to read news about it, they always put interest in the bad ones instead of the goodnews that Bitcoin has brought to the average person.

When FTX crashed, many news media rush to start broadcasting about the news as they know many individual will be looking for source on what happened. Also when Bitcoin price crashes same things happen, the world is just full of negativity and that's what sells.
