most of it is ponzi-shilling. people try to gather as many "followers" of a coin as they can because doing so enhances the "view" that the coin is an actual viable product
the more shillers you have, the higher the market confidence is, the better the coin will perform and make your investment go up
coin performance has nothing to do with the actual technology or the team behind it anymore really. any rando with a big youtube following can start shilling a new or inactive coin and get everyone to start pumping it
then when it goes up, the core group and followers cash out
VeChain, Raiblocks, Request all heavily shilled right now.
@lemonshrimp you made some very good points, infact VIBE's coins doesn't have anything to do anything with their technology, their coins are only there as their transaction method services. but considering their team and vision doesn't look like a scam to me.
@don.quixote what i believe in what ever coin attracts you, always do a good research about the team, technology and whitepaper to see if everything is considerable :)
Clear assessment!
