There are many russian scammers as well in crypto space, in ICO days many ICO projects have russian CEO and they all turn scam projects, now it's hard for many to trust any new project that have russian team members, though most crypto scammers are english speakers, that's why we have more scam ENG telegram groups
Also most new crypto projects are from english part of the worlds like U.K, US, and other english spoken countries and mind you these english telegram groups also consider opening russian telegram groups if possible, don't invest in a project because of their activeness on telegram, it doesn't make sense
No, it's not nation-related
There are many scammers from every part of the world and naturally they utilize either the languages they can speak, or languages they can afford to make marketing for. But I wasn't looking for ICO / DeFi channels at all - they are 99.99% scam, so don't even try. Was thinking of more analytical kind of content.I have had this unpopular thought about telegram being a diminishing factor in reducing crimes in cryptocurrencies. I can't vouch for 100% of the groups been scam but I can boldly tell you that, telegram is a den of scammers where they rub off innocent victims of their funds. Activeness of some groups are sponsored, there are handful of legitimate traders on twitter twitter who can be your guide.
Would you say that Telegram is dead then for quality blockchain-related content?
I say let's start a group where we can compile a list of ponzi / scammers in the crypto world, to warn others. I'd hate for some innocent person to get tricked.
It's good and great idea (I believe you could earn merit points for that
), but there are 2 problems: 1) it's not vey feasible because TG groups emerge and die every hour and you cannot keep track of each of them manually; 2) The number is so huge, that's why I wanted to discover the good ones instead of finding which ones are bad. By Default 99.999999% are not good, so was hoping more experienced members here know what are those 00.000001% of groups / channels.
