Hm, I did hate Bob quite some time ago, but at a certain point I realized that he is actually an essential part of the game in many respects. So, he revealed that he is watching this and now everybody is free to decide what to think about that. For me it's cool he is around
for sure they can be useful, like I said I made a bunch of profit trading crave in the high volume and high volatility... but I don not believe they are essential... an indicator of value when they are looking at a coin this late for sure, but they do not create the value. it's only when they are behind a coin from the start that I wont touch like the ICO's that sell out in 6 hrs and instantly do 50-100's of btc in volume each day.
I believe that crave would be sitting closer to a stable .003-.005 right now if they hadn't been f'ing with it and created so many butt hurts by dumping from .008 down to .001 leaving us to start the climb from near the bottom again and waves of butt hurt people that got suckered in to pay way too much too early (which yes fault lies on the buyer for not reading it correctly)
they are good for short term traders for sure but tend to slow down the long term by building distrust with new buyers that will associate the coin and the pump group as one in the same.
