99.999% of altcoins go to zero, and how the shill economy works
A blunt warning for crypto buyers: nearly every coin other than Bitcoin is worthless, and the marketing around them is paid for.
- Almost all altcoins are cash grabs with slick marketing and nothing real behind them.
- Most projects never do what they claim to do, and many have no business being traded at all.
- The hype comes from social media influencers who are paid to promote coins.
- Pitch requests to shill new coins arrive daily, even in a bear market — a sign the promotion machine never stops.
- The practical takeaway: there is no reliable way to sort a "good" altcoin from a bad one, because the category itself is the problem.
Outlook: Expect the paid-promotion cycle to keep churning out new coins regardless of market conditions, with Bitcoin treated as the only asset worth holding.
