I will not deny the fact that hype is used by YouTuber to advertise sponsored project, distribute referral links or clicks for their channels. I still believe there are still genuine YouTubers that pass real information and advice. These set of youtubers do what they do out of their pure hearts.
These YouTubers fall victim too for advert that later turn to scam because the sponsor that give full detailed information about their project. I will advice people to still make more findings from other source to be sure.

Whether overhyped or with quality,the main objective is for entertainment which is the reason why they’re there. It feels the mind of the viewers with what they really want as that time and you have to give it to them.

The only way self to make money from hype tokens na to buy the hype and sell the hype but e dey almost impossible unless God dey your side.

Na so e dey be for most projects. This crypto space na craze.
Are there still people that takes advices from YouTube influencers off the bat without asking thoughtful questions first? I won't be surprised if there are still such people since we're in a bull run. Like YouTube influencers, Crypto influencers on X too are more or less the same and I take their bias and advices with just a grain of salt. Anybody looking to succeed in crypto needs to be willing to put in the work in order to make rgoid research for his/her trades, investments, etc. Taking advice blindly have had a net negative effect and led to more losses overall than wins.
Obviously, there are people who still rely on influencers' opinions regarding their investment. You may be surprised but 20% of these persons are still ignorant of the advice of avoiding these influencers while the remaining 80% are purely newbies who clearly know nothing about what they want to do and feel they can best get opinions from people who claim they have good experience in that area. In this life, nothing comes free. There must be a price to be paid or a sacrifice to be made. Anyone who wants to be successful in bitcoin investment or trading must pay the price of studying and sacrificing quality time in learning and practicing the act. No two ways about it.
A lot of these YouTubers would do or say anything just to get views and streams even if what they are Saying isn't accurate they will still say it to attract people to their page, it's all a marketing strategy. YouTube is platform with vast information on basically everything you need, as a student it has helped me a lot with my academics but when it comes to financial advice or anything about trading I don't really take any informations from there seriously. People see video titles like" how to be a forex trader in less than 30 day" and they still go ahead to download thinking it's possible to do that. These creators are just out to make money.
YouTube is like an academy on its own, where you can learn about a lot of things, so also other platforms, but there is always the good and the bad in whatever. Now as a newbie or intermediate or pro bitcoiner, it's wise that when you see an information in one channel, go further and look up that information in two, three, four channels. If four different people, different location, different time zones are saying the same thing, then you can believe it a bit. You can also ask questions from traders, you know, or you ask in the forum. YouTubers will always put what they will put out there that will give them money, so you can't just pick up any information you see from the internet and work on it as an individual. We should learn to do research, we should learn to check facts before we act on it, because everybody is just out here hustling for their pockets. So must be careful not to fall victim from wrong information and, end up blaming YouTubers.
YouTube channels are people's business and source of income, they have that platform to hype and advertise to make money in return so you shouldn't really be taking financial advice from this platform otherwise you might end up losing . As a beginner venturing into the crypto space trying to learn trading or what hodling is all about, you can learn the basics and how to get started from these channels but learning th actual trading systems on YouTube is a bad idea. Of course you can watch tutorials on science projects and stuffs like that but taking financial courses on this platform isn't advised.

YouTube is very famous when people want to find out more information about crypto and it's always generating many clicks for YouTubers. But unfortunately, information quality is not very high for most videos because of hype and clickbait videos.
What’s thee to know is that, YouTube doesn’t concern itself with all that, they don’t get to sensor videos to determine which is authentic or not. At most, they just get to ensure your content is original and copy right free. This doesn’t go only for YouTube but, the internet as a whole.You have to understand that, what you see out there is just opinions and people are allowed to be opinionated. You however is responsible to filtering the information you consume. You don’t get to choose what people put out but you however can choose what to accept so, do that. It goes for every other person too.
It is very clearly clickbait.
For us, we should always know: YouTuber's hype video is not good advice. It is not well researched and low quality content.
What you should understand about content and video creators is that they always looks for an attractive point like things to make people click on their videos to fetch them viewers nd likes, no content creator would like to sell out things that will people not to click on their videos. What to do as a youtube lover is to just filter those videos if they aren't giving you what you wanted from them and of course not every videos you must be clicking online to watch and most of them are very misleading especially it gives you bad misrepresentation of bitcoin and also some altcoin which might likely entrapped you in by doing investment.For us, we should always know: YouTuber's hype video is not good advice. It is not well researched and low quality content.
See to make investment I would advise you not to follow any advertisement on social media or youtube because they are doing that for their self interest since they are holding some percentage of token/coin from that project they would try all their possible means for people to invest while the price increase for them to cash out big time. So it's better to avoid them and chose few of it that gives you what you wanted and not to focused in all videos.
We can not generally asertain that very concept of YouTubers hype videos not to be good because even though most of it are just merely for promotion of which they are paid to do that, majority of the videos still carries useful and important information, although we don't have to completely rely on them, it is very important that we should also be able to make certain comparisons and contractions from what we also learned from other places before making conclusions, YouTube videos from influencer can not stop hence we should only be very careful carrying informations we got from YouTube as not to be mislead.
Majority of youtubers are content creators all they want is to have views and subscribers to make money, they move with the trends now that the market is somehow bearish it's obvious they will act like this to influence those who are affected by FUD.
To be frank I don't usually use YouTube for any financial advice or cryptocurrencies, is either majority is speaking on the market current trend or marketing a product/service in the end.
It's only when someone get into the crypto space or invest in Bitcoin with the wrong mindset that it's a get rich scheme they will be swayed by all these content creators.

Anything that puts money in their pocket and pays the bills , just like you said I also don't use YouTube to get financial advise or what to invest in because they are paid to hype and advertise other people's business which might not even be legit. These content creators advertise businesses that they don't even invest in. I have watched several videos on YouTube that explained different ways to make money online but I tried everything and it didn't work out. You can use the guidance of YouTube for any other thing asides from how to make money
The problem is not what they post far as it is permitted by YouTube. Their main aim is to create contents that would provide views and followers for them and at the end of the day they get paid.
I no blame any YouTuber on how them chose to make or present their content. People way get wahala na people way Dey do the follow up to actually believe them. For what is worth, these YouTubers done air their opinion based on certain news and observations on the charts which them go always present to you for reason. The matter be say, you suppose get small idea on cryptocurrency to enable you decipher if really, watin this person Dey tell you like this make complete sense.One thing way you for first use hold hand be say, nobody fit predict Bitcoin market.
Once you know that one, then you go look for which people way Dey move the market and this one kwa, no follow for one person matter.
You go check history on Bitcoin to see watin e don do before and how e respond to certain conditions.
These go be guide for you to make better decision and mind the content you go Dey watch or channel you go Dey follow.
Really bro this topic no really relate to Bitcoin talk the bobo wey post am dey generalize am. We know say we dey for Bitcoin forum but no be everything wen we fit talk dey put Bitcoin make our post for dey make sense.

No be only YouTube get this kind hype my brother, Twitter and other social media platforms, even crypto influencer on Twitter follow dey into this game, na paid service from the project/team to do that job for them. Na newbies dem dey target wey never know how them be and operate dey mainly fall victim thinking say him dey the right place and choose the best coin. Na foul
I don fall victim for this kind play before when I started crypto, I buy LOFI, a token built on Binance smart chain just because say them appear on cointelegraph crypto news channel, I believe say them get potential and go do well, not knowing na paid service from the project to cointelegraph to hype and bring them to the public. To me all these small small mistakes go teach and build you to be better investor tomorrow.
Na make I dey always advice newbie to always make serious research before they jump and make any hasty decision because they are so many confusing people out there that can lead you to getting involved in something that not going to yield you profit. Sometimes people easily get influence just because of the personality actually telling about that particular project and a case sample is the event that happened with $Davido coins that he made lots of naive Nigerians buy and later dumped the whole project.I don fall victim for this kind play before when I started crypto, I buy LOFI, a token built on Binance smart chain just because say them appear on cointelegraph crypto news channel, I believe say them get potential and go do well, not knowing na paid service from the project to cointelegraph to hype and bring them to the public.

YouTube content creators always upload contents that would attract the best engagements to their channels, both right and wrong. Some of them are scammers, but some are still honorable in the contents they post. So, you need find those honorable ones and listen more to them, and don't forget to DYOR( do your own research).
learning from successful trader or holder is a step ahead, not every video on youtube you should be watching when you have not seen the progress and evidence of the youtuber, so dont jump to all video on youtube. learn from people around you and practice it, small small you be perfect.

I’m writing this post just from your title and I didn’t typically go through your post and I personally think the post is a very long one and I’m not a fan of long posts.
I think when people are pointed to DYOR they think is just merely about watching YouTube videos but I think it’s far beyond that and personally I don’t pay much attentions to videos that have referral links to their videos because at the long run, the videos ends up to be a promotion which and a contract and most of these YouTubers don’t even do a proper research before accepting those deals which is wrong and very selfish because they’re already putting their accounts at risk.

According to your post you where trying to emphasize the wrong information they create, that's not their concern but you that is following them online or you dealing with the internet should know what to pick from the internet because not everything is right but telling content creators what to post is impossible.

I am an inclined person when it comes to content creation and creating of video thumbnails is one way to create an effective engagement through the YouTube videos. Since there are thousands and millions of people creating new contents on the YouTube feeds, and as a viewer you will have to scroll through and select the one you want, the idea with such thumbnails is to pinch in the mind of the viewer and give them an idea from a birds eye view on what they should expect.
It is not necessarily because they have the intention of creating a false news, but everyone has a way they try to optimize their contents and create buzzwords for their video contents to make them compelling for the viewers.
So like the posters point of view is on the hype, if they use the hype to get their own views then automatically that becomes their own concept.
