Fake news always dangerous

[bitgolden]

Fake news is so easy to see, and if you are trading based on news, you are sort of the problem in the crypto volatility, because if we do not trade based on just some news, then we wouldn't need this, true news or fake news. Obviously its not a sure thing, but it is definitely something that we can do with time, we just need to be sure what we are doing and we can do a fine job with it.

News do not change what bitcoin is, and should not matter unless some big regulation is afoot. Even if it means some big holder is selling, doesn't matter, shouldn't matter. Unfortunately too many newbies end up selling because of this, no idea why they are doing it but I think its quite obvious that we can ignore it.

Rumors have emerged that Michael Saylor sold $1 billion of MicroStrategy's BTC, causing the market to temporarily crash to $95,000.
Sometimes the Bitcoin market is heavily influenced by false propaganda, as has been the case with the price crashing based on this fake news. Before believing in fake news, one should patiently understand the situation well. Michael Saylor himself has made it clear that he will not sell his Bitcoin but will continue to buy his Bitcoin.

This is a fake rumor probably spread to create panic and fear in the market so everyone starts thinking that the bear market has started because MSTR has started to sell, bro if this news would be true, we could have seen the huge red candles already.

It is fake news, but if they even sell $1 billion we should not lose hope because in comparison to their total portfolio of BTC this is nothing but still I am not saying this has no impact on the market, it will have if it would be true but chill it is not.

Sadly we live in a world where one of the most powerful leaders thrives off spreading "fake news" yet will rant against it in the same breath. We are reaching a point where AI can trick us into thinking anything is real and we need real leadership but we have a weak and disheveled old man in charge. It is getting ever harder to distinguish what is real and "facts" are fast becoming who can repeat the lie the most while trying to drown out any opposition. We are seeing one of the best examples of democracy dismantled in front of our eyes, with so much hatred and infighting stoked by politicians who have entirely the wrong priorities. I can only hope that younger generations are being taught to think and fact check for themselves in the education system instead of blindly trusting the news which is controlled by fewer people every year, who work with politicians.

That is also my concern. Newbies rely mostly on whatever the actions of big holders, when in fact bitcoin has its own pattern to follow. Bitcoin will not be bothered even if they all sell their coins. The price may only create changes but that's just temporary, eventually bitcoin price will be back to its original price again and mostly from there, a new all time high will be the next target.

News are relevant to the market, but not all news create an essence. That is why we have to stay firm and focus on our bitcoin goal, despite of the different news that link to bitcoin.

Conditions like this will always happen even though it cannot be denied that whatever fud is created it will not make bitcoin experience problems for the long term but for the short term they feel a little impact because some beginners are not too patient and not too strong in holding their bitcoin.

It's just that in this condition I don't think that it's something to worry about but it's quite unfortunate when there are many fomo and many beginners who don't understand how to fud they get carried away and lose their portopolio in the end.

there are quite a lot of people who make blogs about news, but whether it is true or not, so even if we are interested in the news, we have to be more careful in looking at it before drawing conclusions such as looking for the owner of the blog, or the date or even the source, because currently, as you said, there are also many who deliberately create it but the aim is only to make a fool of themselves, and this can be a series where for example there is one hoax news but because of a lack of carefulness, one person believes it and spreads it to other friends, there is a possibility that their friends can also believe it, resulting in a commotion even though it is inaccurate news.

These people who write blogs about the news are just looking for publicity as they can quickly gain traction over such news as people always want something interesting to read. It does not matter if it is right or wrong, people will still spend some time to read and that is where the income flows for such blog owners. We should always check official sources. These blogs are never meant to be the official source. They just spread the news which has no confirmed sources.

I would never take my financial decisions by reading any random blog. Yes, there are a few blogs which provide genuine information but still some of the news might not be confirmed on these blogs. I would rather spend my time in listening to news or checking official pages to get more information before I make my decision.

That's right, many people create news blogs for profit, but not all of them are like that. There are still people who truly share valid information. Besides text news blogs, there are also many videos these days that are easily believed by most people just by watching them. Whatever the video, the video they see makes most people believe it. Even though nowadays, even videos can be created with AI, and sometimes even news without footage can be made into a scene reenactment with the help of AI. Don't be easily fooled by news and videos circulating these days because they could be fake news, with a 50/50 chance.
I myself rarely seek out news. Even if I know something, it's because it happened from a friend of mine, whom I already know is familiar with official news sources.

When you're here in the crypto market, the rumors we hear won't be able to do anything to what we believe in, especially if we have extensive knowledge about it.
And besides, there have always been many people creating FUD as they say, even with other top altcoins to be honest.

Those rumors will only become dangerous if we believe them because we'll surely be the ones affected, that's why we should be aware of what's happening in this field industry
here in the crypto space. It shouldn't be new to anyone that the risk is really high here.

When we understand the long-term trajectory of Bitcoin, decisions regarding the investment concept will be much easier to implement, which is why investing in Bitcoin has much more potential for long-term success. Most beginners may not be accustomed to navigating the Bitcoin market, so when negative news about Bitcoin occurs, they panic excessively, perhaps because they haven't fully developed their experience. Panic will only cause problems, and if they make the wrong decision, it can actually lead to losses in their investments. What's needed in these conditions is patience and waiting for a gradual recovery. Once they gain investment experience, I'm sure they will understand Bitcoin's trajectory much better and perhaps become accustomed to taking advantage of situations like this.

Experience provides invaluable lessons, but before anything detrimental happens, it's important to learn first to avoid unwanted consequences.
Many beginners' plans are disrupted by inaccurate news, and their lack of strong convictions makes them easily influenced. In my opinion, we need to focus on ourselves to avoid such things, so our investments won't be affected and we need to rely on those closest to us who can offer advice.

Although we know that such rumors had nothing to do with the fall in the price of Bitcoin, there are many people who sell Bitcoin because of such rumors. Even though no such situation has arisen, there are some investors who fall into despair and it is important to be patient in this rumor. However, since it was a rumor, since the market has fallen a lot, there is a possibility that the market will rise again. Michael Saylor has confirmed that he does not sell Bitcoin and will not do so, but will add more Bitcoin to his reserves and he will continue to buy, which is a good initiative.

Panic is actually always a natural situation regardless of whether we are beginners or have been in bitcoin for a long time, panic will actually be felt at any time but the difference is about how we manage it.

Those who are only limited to fomo are likely to be wrong in acting including destroying their own conditions by selling their previous holdings just because they feel it is not profitable to do but when we already feel that this is normal in bitcoin (ups and downs) then surely we know what we should do.
Actually now it depends on our own confidence in holding because in situations like this which some have even said that bearish has begun then the choice is only 2 whether we will continue to maintain ownership and add to the portfolio but there is no guarantee only confidence that the future will be better or to another option where we sell our portfolio with the risk that we may not get it back in the future.

Absolutely, fake news is extremely dangerous. It can mislead people, fuel misinformation, and even contribute to larger societal issues like fear, division, and mistrust. When false information spreads, it can affect everything from public health (like in the case of health misinformation) to political stability. The danger lies not only in the wrong information being shared but also in how quickly it can spread, especially on social media platforms.

Fake news often plays on emotions—fear, anger, or even excitement—which makes it more likely to go viral. People tend to share stories that align with their beliefs or evoke strong reactions, sometimes without checking whether the information is accurate. This can lead to real-world consequences, such as people making harmful decisions or even larger-scale societal harm (like influencing elections or inciting violence).

One key to combating fake news is media literacy—teaching people to question the sources of information and verify facts before sharing them. Do you think the rise of fake news has affected how you approach news or social media?

Experience is formed when someone is directly involved, allowing them to adapt and continue to mature. Typically, when people invest consistently, their experience naturally develops better. Every negative news story is a process, and it's inevitable in the Bitcoin journey. However, how can someone remain calm and avoid doing anything that could jeopardize their investment? If they stay focused and unaffected by the downturn, they will avoid losses from their Bitcoin investment. This will develop as they become accustomed to dealing with Bitcoin's fluctuating conditions.

Actually news has a big impact recently with the traders before they focused with the technical analysis, price movement and recent days traders arent doing like that instead large names influence alot with the market so now people rely with the news most of the time but of course its good if you rely only with the reliable sources so better make sure you are aware about the event happenings in the space.

Also we have the thing of buy the news and sell on the rally well technically its applied but i do recommend with an assist of your trading strategy for confirmation.

[shinratensei_]

This is the problem with paper hands, obscure news without verifiable source is enough for them to press the sell button.
The address that saylor own didn't even move the BTC to an exchange and people are already speculating wildly.

As a result, it generate clout that could be harmful for bitcoin but it's just part of the trading market I guess, creating clout to create edges.

The fall in price had nothing to do with that rumor though. The rumor started spreading after the latest fall in price, then coupled with on-chain data showing outflows from Strategy's wallets, which people interpreted to be the company selling some of their holdings. However, on a general note, it is true that weak hands will react to everything. Any rumor or news that seems negative and they are scrambling to sell BTC.

I don’t know why people will always have something negative to say or give false information when something happens, anyone who listen to the rumour and believe it does not know anything about bitcoin, why will the selling of bitcoin by a person lead to the price of the bitcoin? This is the nature of bitcoin and it will continue happening as long as bitcoin is concerned, the price can drop and rise at any time, that is why no one can predict the price of bitcoin.

We should not listen to any false information about bitcoin because if we listen to it, it will affect, I believe some people will be panicking after hearing the information and be thinking the price will not rise again or it will take time before it rises, people that will be thinking negatively are mostly the beginners or anyone that knows about bitcoin newly.

Rumors spread fast in the crypto space and most of the time they come right after a big movement in price not before people like to attach explanations to everything even when there’s no clear cause weak hands panic at every little thing because they still don’t understand how volatile bitcoin naturally is it doesn’t take much to trigger fear among new investors one rumor about whales selling or exchanges moving funds and everyone starts to assume the worst.

Bitcoin has gone through countless similar phases where misinformation spreads and causes unnecessary panic the truth is that bitcoin’s price movements are influenced by a combination of factors including market sentiment global events and large trades from institutions or whales it’s not about one company or one rumor it’s about how the market reacts collectively. Panic selling based on rumors is what separates inexperienced investors from the strong ones those who understand bitcoin’s history know that dips are part of the process and that false information can make people lose good opportunities instead of reacting emotionally it’s better to stay informed verify sources and look at on-chain or market data before making any decision holding steady through noise is what has always paid off in the long run.

We know the Bitcoin for the years and thousands of people have Bitcoin in their Wallet And people want to but Bitcoin but it's price is very up at that time because we saw when Bitcoin price were low and buyers of Bitcoin were more but at that time seller are lesser than buyers and that is big reason Bitcoin price is going up and up and we saw temporary drop in price but after a few days Bitcoin recover the market and now people are greedy and they want to make profit at that time. We know that rumers could be above Bitcoin because they could have plan to buy Bitcoin and this could be their strategy to buy Bitcoins at that time because they know that many people will have fear and will sell Bitcoin without doing any research.

I can't confirm that the fall in Bitcoin was actually related to this news, but the financial market as a whole can certainly be affected by even the slightest speculation, such as an "expert" predicting a drop, the possibility of a company going bankrupt, and so on. I believe there are people who "spread" fake news for their own benefit or for a group of people; when it comes to money, I wouldn't doubt anything.

There are no false rumors in the market right now, so why is the market falling? When the market is dumping, there is no reason, the market automatically goes down, especially now the market is going down so much that a kind of fear is being created among investors. Companies are afraid of bankruptcy, investors are afraid of losses, traders are afraid of losses. When the market is basically falling due to all these influences, there is no need for any false propaganda or news in the market.
