Many are teachers only few are traders. They make their money from selling trading courses, teaching trading classes, creating trading contents for YouTube and other social media. They have their own trading podcasts and collaborate with people like them to talk about trading yet, they have never been successful at trading.

You have already nailed it bro with your first sentences. Many of these trading gurus aren't real traders but more of a commissioners from the courses that they're selling and also affiliates and earns a lot of money from their referrals to the exchanges that they're advertising.
You might even see a very successful trader in the forum but just plays lowkey unlike these, they're known for what they are and that's why they're influencers, and that's it.

What you are saying is true. I have seen many such fake guru traders, but what they are saying is far from the truth. It seems that it's just for the sake of content that the only aim is to get views, just like that; there is no other reason.

And such fake gurus can usually be found on social media platforms such as YouTube and others, so we should be wise in researching or studying trading about this in crypto.
