So earlier today on the @substratum twitter Huge news was tweeted out that would have shaken the whole cryptosphere.
Being the first ERC-20 token on coinbase would place them on a platform that could not be touched. Everyone was super excited and it really showed in terms of price action on the exchanges.
So the question is, with news like this why would the price take such aviciouss downward spiral so soon after the announcement hit? Usually there is a small correction followed by even more buying. That was not the case in this instance and it was for good reason.
They are claiming to have been hacked and that the information tweeted was false. This is ironic, how can we expect them to secure our network if they cant secure their own twitter.
If you go through the Twitter you will find tweet of people who lost money buying into the hype and falling into full blown FOMO. I really like the response of the last guy in the string.
At the end of the day losing money in crypto is not like losing money in monopoly. There are real ramifications and everyone should be vigilant of their investments. Hope this is a lesson learned and something not repeated.
Follow me @crypto2crypto
Sucks for the guy who lost it, but Mr. Sabbithi and you are both right. I tend to be more careful with my crypto then with cash, because unlike money in my wallet crypto has the potential to grow or shrink, or even be stolen without me ever touching it. I don't think everybody thinks about it before they make rash decisions. So I think this is a very fair message and a great warning to give to people. I hope it serves as a reminder to everybody. And I think if it helps prevent one guy or girl from making a rash or quick bad decision then it is definitely worth you spending time on to put it out in our community. It is a very thoughtful warning for you to give everybody. So as always my man thank you. And I send all my love your way and asked for our creators blessings for you and all of yours.
OT: I have a surprise for you. ☺ It isn't much and it isn't money. But you'll know when you get it. To someone of your magnitude, It may not amount to much, but I do hope you enjoy it. Consider it a token of my gratitude and appreciation for you.

I believe we were created. I can look at a basketball, and tell it was created. So naturally I look at something like a human and I figure it's also got to be created. Personally for me that one's a no-brainer. But maybe I'm wrong. But I also believe that I were creator is love. I just think that this world and its ways and systems has gotten in the way of people's ability to connect directly to our creators love and allow it to flow through them to everybody else. I don't know, Maybe I just went too deep. I hope that I did not offend you. And if I did I do apologize. My grandpa always said if you want to pick a fight just start talking about religion or politics.

This is a perfect example of price manipulation and fake news. Even if that news was true, I would not buy it after it came out. In many cases the price falls as you mentioned. I would wait for price to recover if anyone is interested in investing in it. This crash can be painfull to many people.

You have to accept that you’ll win some and lose some in crypto! You can’t assume a gain. But I do agree with your point regarding it being real money! Because you can’t see it, people often treat it as imaginary money, likes trial trading account!

It might sound harsh, but anyone who lost money on this alleged news deserves to lose money. Twitter, Reddit and Facebook should not be used as investment advice, even if it comes from a legitimate account.
People need to learn to fact check. In this situation, people could have saved themselves from loss by going and looking for an official Coinbase announcement, instead of a Tweet.
Another warning sign is Coinbase said a couple of months ago that all ERC20 tokens would be listed on GDAX first, and then chosen selectively to be added onto Coinbase.
Now I understand how fake news worked in the US presidential election in 2016. People are so gullible, they believe everything at face value.

Gotta agree with the harsh but true "it is their own fault."
I was not on top of the tweet, you showed it to me and within less than a minute I had confirmed it was a hack before their official tweet on the matter. I found it odd that coinbase wouldnt say it themselves first, or that we wouldnt have heard whispers or seen greater price action (obvious there was some leading up to it by the pumpers, but not the same we saw for bitcoincash insider trading). Those few seconds may have cost me some profit had the tweet been for real, but look how much it saved to find out it wasn't.
Twitter has become so rife with scams that its hard to take much seriously frmo that outlet anymore. Unless of course its from our president lolol.

I will not swear that I will never be the victim of greed of FOMO but I am very cautious.
I did read most of the white papers before I did invest into a coin, not only this but I also did set a max purchase price. If the price is to high, to bad for me and I will let the train leave without me!
All of the above did not protected my for buying into coins which I regret now!

Fomo has gotten us all, even if it was just a little, but researching and believing in a product will keep us from making any stupid mistakes.
