Hello /biz/, this is my first post, how exciting.

Honest question:

so how do we know that this board (basically crypto forum) is not filled with scammers from Angola or Nigeria trying to promote useless coins so they can buy gasoline to get drunk?

I mean, it just struck me you know, if find this hypothesis quite plausible.

>>1276826
you mean shills?
hey are everywhere but they rarely have the patience to build it up so it's pretty obvious.
>>
Nigger ebonics and chinglish are pretty easy to notice over message boards. Half of BTC talk is horrid chinglish.

What is coin when go up, I think soon!

Bixnood lean coin!
>>
They are eveywhere, mods wont create an advice and crypto sticky cyclic because theyre fucking trash, so you just have to be smart and wade through it
>>
>>1276826
Its easy to tell who's shilling what over here, but I'd worry more about getting advice from NEETs and underageB&s especially now considering that its summer. If you want better information venture off /biz/ and look for whatever niche interests you.
>>
So the next obvious question would be:

Is there a board/forum just like this but then more professional?

I mean I've seen the Trolbox at Poloniex. My god, I actually turned it off because the dicussion there just make me furious.

Everyone is a specialist, and every gown is either SHINKING OR BOOMING.

On the slightest move worlds are created or destroyed, and I have the feeling that a lot of this is just some black dude in an african hut.

Then again might as well be just some random other guy thinking his advice is golden.
>>
>>1276886
Yes, shilling is easy to spot, but I am afraid that these people are starting to use more advanced techniques.

I mean you should always use logic for investments, but then again I would like to stay open to ideas.

And distrusting everything that is posted creates the exact opposite of being open.
>>
99% of the crypto shit is being done by only a half dozen or so people

There are legitimate shills on 4chan though. It's common knowledge that marketing companies target major websites for shilling.

Microsoft is a good example of a company that does a lot of PR work on 4chan.

You very rarely see straight up Nigerian tier scams on this site anymore.

Like >>1276886 says, the biggest danger is that the majority of advice you're getting is from NEETs and teenagers.

I've tried to make about twenty various discussion threads on /biz/ over the last two years and it always ends with crypto shit and ebin maymays

>Is there a board/forum just like this but then more professional?

Everything in life is a compromise

Here's the problem you run into with other forums vs

Other forums, that require registrations and names, are usually locked down tight with political correctness. A small hand full of "power users" will often create a group think that anyone who speaks against it, whether right or wrong, will be either mocked out of the discussion (downvoted) or banned

Anonymous sites let you speak freely, but at the cost of anyone being able to shit post anything they want.

I can call you a dumb nigger and that your information is wrong with zero consequence. It doesn't help anyone or make the board any better though.

People who are new to the internet or are "normies" don't like this style of communication, so a lot of the intelligent people will avoid anonymous communication like this.

Personally, I'd rather have lower quality discussions with free speech (relatively speaking) than a circle jerk with slightly better information.

Thanks for you extensive thoughts, I'll just stay on this board for now.

And now back to /b/

But this is ideal.

Being able to ban shitposters and be able to verify who's a lying fag or not and track posts is great.

Anoymous Imageboards are always only for fun because I can make opposing threads and nothing happens when you get banned.

You also can't easily verify that "OH right this guy responding to my thread is a multimillionaire who has been posting on this forum for 4 years and given out hundreds of great advices to people"
>>
>>1277078
Do you have any good suggestions?
>>
>>1277134
Listen to advice that is probable, contains verifiable premises and reaches a logical conclusion. There are some knowledgeable people here in business however if experience is what you're looking for, it's simply better to just ask a successful person via email or in person.
>>
>>1277134
Consider this website 99% funposting

I love /biz/ for a lot of the humor like the frugal threads or some of the classic copypastas and memes but I don't trust it as an actual source of valuable information.
