I have run into several Bitcoin "newbies" over the last couple of months, that are spreading the wrong information on forums and/or in person. Their intentions is good, but the results is bad, because they did not do proper research.
Some of these people are selling themselves as experts, because they have been in the scene for a few months. I have been in the scene for years and I still know very little about EVERY aspect of this technology.
You're absolutely right, I especially laugh at people who try to say some "wise thoughts" about whether this or that coin will skyrosket.
Ha-ha, one has to be an absolute expert in the market to make such conclusions - and yet not all of them become true.
So yes, before making any FUD-related posts here people should make sure they can support their point of view.
