When you find an altcoin that interests you, go deep. Study how its being used. Talk to people who use it. Talk with the development team. Look at its adoption rate, its potential market size, its price history. These things will give you confidence in your winners and losers and confidence, as weve seen, drives price.
His post is much longer, and more of it is copied (and shuffled a bit), but this is enough to bust him.

It's ironic, he wrote this today:Sourcing it is fine. The rule indicates that the user in question is passing it off as their own. Citing a source ≠ plagiarism (unless there's improper citing).
Citing the source is one thing but copy/pasting should be assessed on a case-to-case basis.
I've seen some users simply copy pasting news articles on coindesk and pasting them here without any attempt at discussion at all. If this goes unchecked pretty soon you could have bots using forum keywords to search for online articles to copy paste here.
