You guys think Bitcoin is the only thing plagued by FUD?
Look at Facebook:
Years of nothing but bull rally and the MSM is all sunshine, rainbows and lollipops on the stock.
But when technicals start to breakdown and signal a rollover in the stock, suddenly out of left field some shit FUD comes out about Cambridge Analytica. Perfectly timed, no less.
Fucking hilarious to me. All markets are rigged.

Considering there are...what...3 companies that control all of US media...they have it pretty much in the bag on how they can manipulate things.
Before we had bitcoin many where clueless as to economy and market forces. However since then we have had a tsunami of newbie traders and market watchers and even some old school tactics by unsavory types expose the crypto community to things like penny stock fraud aka fraudulent ico's or fork's that lead to - insider trading - market collusion - and so on...
Armed with this new perspective. What once was hard if not impossible to recognize by the general public, has been made slightly opaque in its nature.
Factor in software analytics of usage cases and we get studies about how twitter participation has influenced public opinion in both social, and political perspectives.
If applied to crypto market, factor in the open nature of the distributed model with its abundant market transactions. What the G20 discussion alluded to is that there is presently laws in place that can crack down on crypto exchange operations complying with conformity.
IMO such a move will end another thorn in the crypto market. By removing the obscurity associated with the old paradigm of means of trade. Moves like this makes things like decentralized exchange a possibility.
