How to spot a shill on r/cryptocurrency

I saw one of these helpful guides for bot spotting on another subreddit, so I thought I'd pass it forward and enlighten you on what I've learned about shill spotting since joining this sub-reddit.

Classic shill tells:

  • Do they have an opinion that is different from your own? Shill.
  • Are they questioning the utility of a project you like? DEFINITELY a shill.
  • How much Karma do they have? If it's less than you have – for sure they're a shill.
  • Do they have more Karma than you? Deep shill.
  • Are they telling you to buy? They're a shill for some whale who wants to sell.
  • Are they telling you to sell? They're CLEARLY a shill for some whale who wants to buy.
  • Are they telling you to be smart and do your own research? They're probably a shill for some new crypto university or something.

I would know, I'm a confirmed shill. You can trust me.
