And how can you know or tell if the Influencer is legit? As the name goes, influencers, the job is to influence you in any way they can in order to drive growth to the project or in other words, they shill projects as hard as they can, paint it good, call it a gem with their own reasons which then makes the project highly attractive thus most people following them are forced to buy, at the end or even before they start working, they already got paid, so even if it goes bad, it's none of their business.
So I will say, there is nothing like legit influencers but people who are seriously looking for ways to make money as well, let me ask, when the project later turns bad, how many comes out to apologize, even if they do what happens to the money invested?
Therefore, follow any Influencer you want to follow, but make sure you know the risks, don't get too greedy and know when to sell.
