We have already talked about how the media can manipulate and create information, make trends and drag innocents into public ridicule. All these disadvantages are clear when the one who transmits them is an ignoramus and the one who consumes them, too. Now everybody talks about cryptomonies as if they were experts. They repeat, like parrots, what the others are doing, which is more or less "productive". They handle formulas like some network gurus. In Venezuela, for example, some websites are the ones that give the value of the price of the dollar, daily, creating tendencies and chaos. Sometimes I feel that some economic information is like a snowball that, as it runs, gets bigger. Greetings, @tarazkp

The interesting thing about internet gurus is that one never knows i they have skin in the game - or how much. Yet, people believe anything - especially if it feeds their greed.
