A dangerous source of financial advice?

In our latest Cointelegraph video, we dive into the hidden dangers of seeking financial advice on X, formerly known as Twitter. While the platform serves as the heart of the crypto community, it also hosts a wide range of market manipulations and scams.

Through interviews with top crypto influencers and industry experts, the video examines how some high-profile accounts use “pump-and-dump” schemes to influence prices.

These influencers negotiate certain signals, raising the price to sell at a higher level, often leaving regular investors to hold on to undervalued assets.

Experts show how influencers build emotional connections with followers, increase success, and foster trust—making it easier for people to make risky investments without adequate research.

Transparency is still a critical issue. Many influencers fail to disclose conflicts of interest, misleading followers into believing they are receiving unbiased advice. In fact, these influencers can profit from unknown partnerships with token projects.
