The coins remind me the Mexican cartels and the influencers remind me the police who get cash flow.
They don't care about the people they care about their money and they will supress the law for it.
Everyone is shill everyone promotes other coin for money even the people who seem legit and naive are shills. nobody is trusty.
I lost my money because their advices.
I'm sorry to hear that you have been a victim of these youtube scammers.
Yes, there are a lot of this people in Youtube, that's why it is not advisable to listen to them. For one, they really don't know what they are talking about, second, if they told you to buy a certain coin, it's because they are a bag holder of it and can dump it anytime soon.
So I guess this is a big and expensive lessons to learn, still the best weapons for us - DYOR.
