We have already seen in the past that some influencers have used this method already to pump their bags then dump to their followers that is why when we see/read someone shilling a coin or token, the usual reaction for most of us is to avoid it. But what if what's being shilled is also one of your bags? Would you say that it is bad and people should avoid it? I guess not.
I think many of the top cryptos today (even bitcoin) has been shilled at some point. This makes shilling not necessarily a bad thing. So what should be done when we see a coin/token being shilled? You can either ignore or dig deeper and see what makes it unique (and profitable).
Opinions?
Shilling may not be supported but its a common occurrence in cryptocurrency. Even top CEOs like Justin Sun and CZ directly and indirectly shill there's coins to investors. Its a necessary evil employed to attract new investors to your project using the green candles as indicators. Even many of us here indirectly shill bitcoin because we love and believe in the crypto project and believe that expansion will come with adoption
