Hi Ivan, I like that you post the news but would still be more interested in your, and other’s, view on said news.
Personally, I feel that as long as there is a clear statement attached to any promotion that says that the promoter is paid to promote, I don’t have a lot of issues with it (which isn’t the case in McAfee’s tweets), he should reference each tweet to the terms and conditions under which he shills.
He should also back up his claims of “only” selecting 5 out of 200, seeing that such would literally be every ICO that started this year and all ICOs from December (Finacoin only ICOd in December 2017) so I’m going to call a serious amount of BS on that statement.
To me, McAfee has literally zero credibility left and from my point of view does a lot more harm than good to the cryptocommunity.
