Greedy people use cryptocurrency and take advantage of its greatness by using it in fraud activity, Crypto is known for its security so it's trusted by many but a little knowledge about it can surely make other lose their funds, more awareness about this issue on social media is really needed.

No I don't see any disadvantages about publicity of cryptocurrency, just us alone can't be doing crypto or probably just us also will know about crypto while others won't. Why will we be hiding our fortune, our right, our business, our future and won't publicize it. If that's is done, then there is something we don't some people or probably the entire world to lnow about crypto.

it can adversely affect cryptography in the event that the advertisement was made ineptly. Unfortunately, there are a lot of such cases now.

When someone only has small news and then invests in bitcoin with huge funds and they get a lot of losses, for me that is what makes a lot of bad news about crypto. Hello man, crypto requires a lot of analysis and not only has news as a way to get rich quick.

Nothing is good or bad. It is what it is.

Some things are just inevitable, and I think this is the case with cryptocurrency.

Digital value has become just as valuable, and sometimes more valuable than physical value. It's also much more scalable and can reach more people because everyone is going to be online in the coming years in one way or another, even in developing countries.

 It only makes sense that we exchange this digital value with digital currency.

BTC in particular started to have negative impact when CNN was shilling it.

Most people coming in didn't get what Blockchain technology was about, they saw it as a new get rich quick investment.
The new money they brough into market was cashed out on a small retracement, that's what brought us to where we are today.


Bad advertisement.
The influence of media to their subscribers make bitcoin more ugly. In fact, some of the news are exaggeration only. They just indicated people who are "expert" in analyzing the data or chart so that the news may become true. They are bias when it comes in giving information. So, I do not follow them anymore. It will just take us in wrong way.

Publicity is never a bad thing, as it creates attention. The problem is finding accurate information about it. I think instead of relying on news, people should go directly to the website of certain crypto, read the whitepaper, do their necessary checks and discover for themselves what it's all about. Doing one's homework is the best way to learn about crypto.

I think, a stupid public who can give a negative influence to bitcoin, they only accept the simple news, without understanding deeper.

and they are also easily influenced by bitcoin haters, so they spread the negative assumptions of bitcoin, eventually, the market fell.

Advertising has helped cryptocurrency to become known among a wide range of people all over the world. However, this advertising has become so much that part of it is perceived as spam. And this has a negative impact on the image of cryptocurrency.

the danger of many FUDs, out there there are still many people who do not like the existence of crypto currencies, and many are panic about it, they will freely say without limits to spread a lot of negative news, which they hope will affect new or old investors though , the existence of social media and ease of access to information is indeed very supportive of crypto, but the existence of many hoax news makes a lot of negative effects that adversely affect and affect investors

I don't think so that there is disadvantage in publicity of cryptocurrency rather it can help make it popular. Eventhough you can meet those people who have many queries because they are still new but still it is a good sign that the number of community will increase.

Cryptocurrency is now an established medium of trade and has been profitable for most of the members of the community. I know that most people have heard of BTC in different avenues of communication may it be in SNS, blogs or even news the only thing that's keeping them from really utilizing crypto is their fear of it. Still, Crypto has been advertised and made known to the public. We all know that advertisement is a necessary method to invite investors.What could be its negative effect to crypto?

Most publicity about cryptocurrency on media are not truthful that's why many people never care to know what blockchain and cryptosystem is all about before coming in with the mind set of making huge money based on what they have read. Once we learn to study and understand before trading or investing take greediness aside the rate of scam will reduce and many people will tust more on bitcoin I believe this can help bust the price.

A lot of hype but not a lot of adoption. The biggest problem with cryptoocurrencies is the fact that most of it is not mainstream. Even Bitcoin being the largest and oldest cryptocurrency is still unheard of y most of the population. Other coins are much much worse.

Bitcoin might have been unheard of a few years ago, but the bull rally of 2017 ensured that people in most parts of the world have heard about it, even if what they have are mainly misconceptions. I would see this as a positive - when all these people hear about Bitcoin and adopt it, the price will explode. Publicity can help in this regard.
Yes.Publicity whether it brings positive or negative updates,it will still help cryptocurrency to be more popular and invite good investors that are willing to take risks investing in crypto.So it will still create good benefits on the side of cryptocurrency than having no publicity at all.

The one main source of negativity is the media. The media always tells to the public the drawbacks of bitcoin and never mentions its advantages. In my experience, I'd say that from ages 20 to 50, 90 percent of those do not trust bitcoin and only thinks of it as a scam. To that end, we must be the ones stopping this bad actions so that the reputation of bitcoin will improve.

What do you mean by "advertisement" here? No one is advertising crypto, and still less the channels you mentioned. Well, in fact, developers of a number of coins do advertise their coins, through airdrops or elsewise, but that's not what you seem to mean here. Anyway, if you refer to publicity, then any publicity is good, as the saying goes. Obviously, good publicity is better than bad publicity, but here lies the main problem. It is often difficult to say or distinguish between what is good publicity and what is bad one.

To sum it up, it is almost impossible to say in advance what net effect some news will have, especially long term. It can even be the case when some form of press or news coverage may cause visible, undeniable damage to the image of crypto (like its use in the DarkNet) in the short term but over the long run it may actually turn beneficial as people are prone to forget bad things about something but their awareness of it will nevertheless persist.

One of the main advantages of cryptocurrency is its online money transaction facility. Cryptocurrency provide its user an untraceable and uninterrupted money transaction facility is one of the most liked advantages of cryptocurrency and because of this many anti social people use cryptocurrency to full fill their various criminal activities like money laundering, kidnapping, murdering child pronography etc. And this the main reason behind it ban in many country.

I don't think there is any disadvantage but some time you may find or face some people who don't know about crypto and face trouble to make them understand.
