Bold summary! Please be aware that journalism is badly affected as well.
I spend weeks to investigate and fact-check to help our journalists to make a robust publication.
On Yavin just jumps to conclusions helping to generate scandal type of headlines.
People lose trust in crypto journalism or turn into blind haters who never need real investigations.
Kudos to you, I see it is not just about unfair competition with diligent journalists. That is a sophisticated blackmailing mafia business.
How can we spread this insight?

https://i.imgur.com/qqOgGqF.png?1I am considering to get listed at the Cointelligence IEO page as my marketing firm suggests. And feel worried.
Fees are slightly higher than other IEO listings site. The package is standard - project page, details, ratings, some promotion if buy a premium package. There is a chance to get Low-risk score which is their estimation of the project success. However, they are not visible in Alexa or Similar web and look overpriced. I would prefer old horses with sizable traffic like ICO Bench.
Not that easy, my marketing agency says I should choose On Yavin's Cointelligence. Why?
Are you crazy? You must get listed here and never list on his main competitor like ICO Bench. Do you want big scandals from nothing? You do not, but On Yavin wants. You will get low score and announced as a scam. Your community will be used to beat you for the wrong decision. Scandals will attract your community to your scam page on cointelligence to boost On's referral links fees. The other projects will see this and learn the lesson to make the right decision where to get listed. Did you hear that he rarely changes the rating after publication? This means you must pay in advance.
This is Mafia. There is two types of people in crypto - friends or enemies of On Yavin. Friends support each other and coordinate to beat enemies. Projects of friendly advisors would gent high score and protection from attacks even if each of the advisor's projects is doing scam exit. Influencers and community leaders would prefer to join the coalition even if their friends slandered. Everybody wants to be a friend of On.
Should I accept the offer? What would you do?
