many seem to think RT is propaganda but apart from Abby Martin and Daniel Bushell falling for the climate change scam, I've yet to see anything that can't be verified..  it's mostly negative simply because they want to bring to light corporate corruption etc which they can't do in the western news outlets.

as for Max, love him or hate him - he has a large audience and he talks/rants about important topics that people need to be aware of, even if he often seems to make light of it.. not many have the guts to do what he has over the years.

seeing how he's always retweeting compliments, I don't think maxcoin is about profiteering, it's about ego.
