So what is the point of the telegram group?




Just instant messaging of everything crypto, it’s mainly posters from TD alas an LSU group. The telegram app/group is hard to keep up with with so many instant messages throughout the day. The money talk board allows for slower pace discussion and not everyone involved in crypto here has the telegram app.

The creator can provide his thoughts, but from my understanding, the group was created to have a single mode of real time information flowing. There are thousands of posts a day in the group- it would not be feasible to keep up with that in a thread. However, nearly all of the info discussed in the telegram is also discussed in that master thread, just without most of the items that are harder to post on a forum (memes, charts, screenshots). There are about 500 people in the telegram group so it isn’t like it’s a secret group defrauding the rest of TD. Literally any lurker was given the invite the join.

To discuss Crypto in real time, instant messaging format. Without having to scour through a 600 page thread. To have live dialogue. The pinned thread had gotten entirely too heavy.

What’s your deal man? On one end you are stating you are invested in crypto on the other end you are constantly trying your hardest to attack the crypto world on here. What is your actual motive? Most of your posts on the money talk are you spamming your negative attitude towards crypto. But I guess congratulations is in order, you’ve caused unnecessary drama and moved the needle towards halting crypto discussion on this board.

There simply aren’t enough people here to pump a coin to any degree



A coin worth .000005 cents of a penny trading under 500 shares a day and you don't think 500 people in a telegram group (rjones the owner of the group said you guys had 500) couldn't move the needle on that? You are either naive or being purposely obtuse.

BTW under 500 trades per day and a value of .000005 was where ECA was 3 weeks ago. Not saying TD moved the needle on that but I am saying they could with that many people in a group. Just the ECA "whale group" said they have over 40 million shares. That bought on a coin averaging less than 500 trades per day for months would make it jump.

So with that being said, when you have tduecen, who has been highly involved with the crypto here from the start, say ECA was being used as a pump and dump using TD to do so, it's concerning.

No, because not even 50% of those in the group participate. You have no idea what you are talking about but continue on with your asinine narrative.

Not attacking the crypto world at all. I would call bullshite if say Rocket31 (who is the worst about it) were constantly spamming useless penny stocks here. It's dangerous and I have said so.

I didn't cause anything. Rules were apparently broken (referral links, penny stick promoting, using TD to steal traffic to another message board/telegram) and Chicken took notice.

You guys can get angry at me about it and act like some dindus or you can get with Chicken and fix the issues. IDC

You do realize that telegram is the equivalent to whatsapp? Probably not.

You clearly do Stout. You are still promoting your disingenuous narrative that the equivalent to a WhatsApp chat group with 479 members can move the needle on a coin when I’m in a LTC group with over 21k members and they can’t even do that. Like I said, most of your posts on this board are attacking crypto enthusiasts

You do realize the official ECA group that is more likely to be “moving the needle” has 4,000 members in their telegram group right?

I didn’t get into crypto until mid December (few weeks ago). The master thread on TD was the only way I was able to do so honestly. Lot of info in there that prevented me from giving up. And the telegram group has lead me to getting big gains. I’m not some baller, I put in $50 expecting to lose and now I’m over $600. And it’s been because of their info. Have not once felt like I’ve been used.

Just my two cents, but it feels like whacking that thread is bordering with unnecessary censorship. If you’ve been to other investing telegram groups, the official coin telegram, even cryptocurrency reddit page, it’s everyone shilling their coin in hopes to get people to buy to raise the coins value to make profit. It’s people’s own choice to decide to trust random strangers on the internet for advice on investing. TD and the telegram group have been much more trusting than what newbies will find elsewhere, and I for one am thankful it was there when I wanted to get into crypto.

You may have to break it down for him, he may think the official ECA group is all TD posters.

Here is what you need to understand. There is a difference between a group pumping and dumping together vs. intentionally trying to defraud other users of this site.

There is no doubt that we try to get behind coins together, but we are always clear up front as to what our intentions are, and everyone that has wanted to has been invited to join us in doing so.

Pump and dumps are a part of the crypto space, and many of our users stay away from them because of the risks involved

If you think about it the entire Money Board is basiclaly unsolicited advice from strangers on the internet

It's just part of it and you have to assume the risks and weigh them

The intentions for ECA were not clearly posted on TD. I am not the only one that has said this FWIW.

You of all people told me "my hands were too weak" to be invited in a now deleted thread.

Then the way coins are promoted here perhaps needs to change? IDK but like Chicken said penny stocks have never been allowed for a reason so I guess these small coins are no different.

We just gonna keep making shite up here or what?

ECA was first mentioned in the telegram group on December 21, when it had a volume of $174,000 being traded and was worth about $0.000132 according to coin market cap. Most bought in over the next week when there was news of a new website coming out with road maps and whatnot.

There were about 30 lsu guys who were in an eca only telegram that had acquired more than 1 million coins over that week or so. Most bought in for for less than $1k.

By December 30th, there was over $1million in trades happening with ECA trading at $0.00351 per coin, which eventually grew to over $9million in volume before the exchanges started crashing.

I'd love to believe that our group had that much power.

Your accusations are ridiculous, especially for someone who has supposedly profited off of this run of ECA.

I know exactly what I am talking about and I bet if you asked a professional that deals with the market all day they would agree with me. This happens on much larger markets than alt coin crypto trading with the volumes I posted so I am not sure why you think crypto would be immune to it.

I know what telegram is. I just don't have an account to know the ui layout. Quit making shite up.

Im in a day trading group, that has nothing to do with TD, that uses discord. Do you know the discord ui without ever setting up an account?
