Crypto Education vs Crypto Promotion

in #steemiteducation5 years ago (edited)

When I first started my journey on cryptocurrency, I relied on youtube videos for reviews and information.

After getting involved for more than a year now, I believe we can agree that we often find videos that are not really giving us unbiased information but mainly to promote due to their own investment and personal gain.

Just like Bitconnect that had resulted many to lose huge amount of money.

Youtube was full of promotional videos and the attractive reward to invest in Bitconnect.

The content was related to how much we could profit and earn huge amount of money, many were attracted without the negative side to warn us. This sort probably was more like crypto promotion rather than education.

David Hay has not been producing videos recently but we can see that he did give nice perspective to us about certain aspect in his opinion in the crypto world.

When genuine people warn us of the danger and scam like what he was doing, we should consider twice before jumping into something due to greed.

Crypto Education vs Crypto Promotion can be hard to differentiate due to how things are presented.

In short, we must evaluate and set our greed aside to see the risk level and the logic behind to see whether it has sound values behind.
