Topic: Who the hell is Max Keiser? - page 2. (Read 5767 times)
I have seen a few interviews with him. He is interesting for sure, but a little over the top for my tastes. His extreme bullish predictions do more to hurt than help the bitcoin community.
A prize douchebag and btc 'expert'
Who the hell is Max Keiser? Never heard of him before visiting this forums.
FYI: I'm not gonna bother to google him because he's not important, but who is he to the Bitcoin community?

I didn't know of him either till I read/joined here. I also didn't know who Doyle Brunson was when I first started playing poker. Ironically, I knew who Linda Lovelace was before I first starting jerking off. Can't believe she's been gone now for 12 years and 3 days, but who's counting?
Although Max Keiser is quite a funny financial pundit, he often promotes horrible financial decisions. Promoting people to continue buying at the top of bubbles (silver a few years ago, and recently (late-2013) with bitcoin).
I wouldn't be surprised if he was actually selling most of his holdings when he is most vocally hyping.

yep i am highly suspicious of him being a pump and dumper.
he has admitted to past participation in pump and dumping schemes, he probably still conducts it. Maxcoin is certainly a good example of this. I always thought he was like a leprechaun. A little annoying geeky guy who is always shouting about his pot o' gold over the rainbow.
mostly he's just a "media personality" though. Bit of an alarmist twat too if you ask me.
well, at least he admits it.. the funny thing is that his whole shtick is about going on diatribes against the establishment.. for doing something similar to what he does. i posted about him some time ago, and some of his loyal fans weren't happy with what i was asking.
I think some people take him a lot more serious than he takes himself.
Max gets on the troll box at mcxNOW once in a while and is perfectly fine with making fun of the perceptions people have about him.

it only requires 1k-10 coins to make the markets rock.. if you had 10k would you b putting in only 5-20btc as thats all the orderlines can cope with without creating walls/pumps. or would you trade your coins making profits?
anyone with 10k coins would not just play with 5 coin and only play with a 10% swing per day. as thats only 0.5btc profit a day. which out of 10k coins is 0.0005%

Meanwhile, everyone here and on reddit were perfect voices of reason, sober in their advice, and they all sold off their bitcoin minutes before Chinese regulators spooked the entire market, causing the massive sell-off, which was entirely predictable to any insider. Oh wait, that's not what happened. Everyone else was going "full retard" here, and no one could predict that the Chinese government would "ban" bitcoin, causing the market to lose a significant chunk of its value in hours.
You can't compare Max Keiser (a former stock broker with advanced financial knowledge) to reddit noobs and bitcoin geeks who know nothing about finance. Anyone with the slightest TA skills could have spotted that ~1k was definitely a near term top and not advisable for new people to get into, yet despite this knowledge Max Keiser continued pumping the shit out of bitcoin. He is definitely predatory in nature and his history of pumping silver at the top and the recent Quark and Maxcoin scams clearly show this.
Ironically, Max often bitches about banksters pumping bubbles, but at least their analysts rarely advice people to get into the top of markets.
So it was just a coincidence that the crash coincided with major bad news from China? The technicals indicated that this was bound to happen all along? Technical analysis can't predict a black swan.
Who the hell is Max Keiser?
A clown without the makeup.

He has done a hell of a lot more for bitcoin awareness than majority of us here, that's for sure.
You should check you RT (russia today) on youtube. It's also broadcast in the UK, i think it's on sky, virgin, freeview and freesat.
So if the price of BTC reaches 10k will max be a hero for telling you to buy at $1200?

On a scale of 1 to 10, his personality is set to about 17.5, but once you get past that, he's one of us.
Yeah.
I think one thing that's interesting about him is that he's really far to the left politically. People like to paint bitcoiners (and gold/silverbugs) as all being Libertarians. Max certainly isn't a libertarian. He thinks big business, especially banks, along with crony capitalism, have created essentially fascist states that oppress and exploit the general populace. And he doesn't think less regulation is the answer to that problem.
He's more like the Dennis Kucinich of the bitcoin pundits, where everyone else wants to be Ron Paul.
He's a very knowledgeable economist with a background in electronic stock trading. He's very much a "Dollar Vigilante" type, and is a friend to crypto-currencies in general. He interview the Ethereum guy not long ago.

He was also telling people to buy BTC when it was $10...
Keiser went full retard in the 800-1200 zone... even the youtube commenters got sick of him mentioning bitcoin in almost every single show during the top of the bubble.
He obviously knew that it was the near term top, but continued promoting it to more suckers, so he could sell most of his stash.

I think he's great - as already mentioned, himself and Stacey make a good double act - he makes economics/finance interesting, and lets face it some of the subject matter could be a bit dry and boring otherwise.
Its great when I can listen to a US ex Wall Street stockbroker on a Russian TV programme being broadcast from London talking about China, gold and bit coin.
It definitely isn't the BBC

Yes, it's just awesome. First I thought he is a kind of very selfish guy but I should admit I was wrong.
I hate his voice hahahahah
The only guy that made a shit ton of money off Maxcoin, that's who.
