Why not.
I'm interested in this because it's creating buzz, and where there's buzz there's vol and profit opps. I just hope the creators aren't getting the biggest paydays...
This isn't a private thing. Are you suggesting that because I, say, read Fontas' Twitter and someone else didn't, that I am guilty of insider trading?
I agree the line gets blurry when the "insiders" are communicating in the trollbox or on twitter, but whenever there's a group of people with enough buying power to influence price, and they have they don't share with 100% of the people who are trading what they're doing, it's unfair.
And to the other poster : " Everyone's doing it so I'm doing it too !" Is not a valid argument. "They deserve it because it because there is no law against it" is also not a valid argument.
Guess who influences the big Bitcoin swings. This happens on a much much larger scale there just you don't see the groups of original miners dare to post a thread declaring it here.
I dislike this idea, but best of luck...

Is this some kind of Nihilist/Anarchist insider trading club for altcoins? I'm in.
I'm not sure why the 'ethics' of this are being argued about. I mean, if ANYONE is trading, they are making an attempt at making gains off of other people's losses. How can they be upset if someone does the same thing to them?

Except they do share it publicly. Some people miss it, others ignore it, and they lose money.
No they don't share, they form a "club" that you have to sign up for, pay money to sign up for even. Did you even click the link in the OP ?
Trading alt coins is not just about joining a pump and then getting out before the dump. But I have the feeling I'm talking to people who just learned the whole concept of trading securities last week so maybe I should just leave you guys alone and alow you to get burned. Thats how you learn lessons anyway : the hard way.
I think it is you who learned of trading last week. I think I see the disconnect here. You are telling us what traders should do, what they would do in a world governed by morality. We are telling you what traders will do, in this world, that is governed by profit. If any good trader can get a step up above the competition, they will do it. If you won't, then you will lose. That's just how it works.
EDIT: Willhash4food, I like your avatar, it's cute.
Ha. Well put on both accounts. "Should" only ends up in frustration. Someone who speaks in moralities like 'get away with it' 'right and wrong' and 'fair' is better off not trading at all. Setting your emotions aside to trade numbers can be a very difficult lesson for feelies.

I'm gonna let you have the last word here cause I need sleep
Have fun inside trading while you can get away with it. This isn't a private thing. Are you suggesting that because I, say, read Fontas' Twitter and someone else didn't, that I am guilty of insider trading?

What do you think the market is made of? Hint: traders
If you think pump & dump doesn't exist on the NYSE or Nasdaq, maybe you don't understand how the market works. The big boy market IS ALL PUMP AND DUMP.
Besides, joining such an "alt club" will only result in pawns moving money for the person running the club. And if his plan works, well, then he's a genius for implementing it first.

But they trade like securities, and the moral basis for the insider trading laws is to prohibit unfair trading based on information asymmetry - exactly what is happening here.
Yep, it's simply not fair because the "altcoin club" gang knows something the rest doesn't. They KNOW it's going to drop, they are not taking a risk. Ofcourse a good number of the gangs members are going to get screwed too.
Not fair?
You're going to have a hard time in the market if you don't collect as much info as you can and do the math. The market doesn't care about being fair. The market doesn't care about you. And if you choose to care about it, you wont be doing the hammer dance for long, my friend.
I'm not you friend, pall.
A knife also doesn't care about being fair, yet stabbing someone with it isn't very nice, now is it
EDIT : I never said the market should be fair. I'm saying traders should be fair.

There's always a risk with trading. Everyone who trades accepts that risk. In the end, everyone can win and lose as well, and most people do win some and lose some. So who even cares? This just encourages more people to trade, getting more people enthused in cryptocurrency, and, if anything, raising awareness of cryptocurrency. Which can be considered a good thing. IMO.
