A recent investigative study has uncovered a alarming trend within the cryptocurrency industry: more than 60% of all crypto-related press releases are connected to high-risk or outright fraudulent projects. This research highlights a significant issue of misinformation and predatory marketing targeting investors. The findings suggest that a substantial portion of the visible promotional activity in the crypto space is designed to lure unsuspecting participants into risky ventures. Analysts warn that this saturation of dubious promotions undermines trust in legitimate blockchain innovations and cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). The report calls for increased due diligence from both media outlets and investors to filter out deceptive signals from genuine project developments.
