The Problem

Crypto readers say mainstream outlets are 'KNOWN for having to correct their articles' and 'don't really research before announcing'. Others say coverage is 'play to play' and 'paid for shilling specific coins', so they can't tell news from promotion. Many fall back on social media, where misinformation is even harder to filter.

“They are KNOWN for having to correct their articles since most of them are written in opinions by people who do not understand the tech.”
