They are very biased and intentionally leaving out important information. They constantly write in favour of their investments, without even hiding it. Basically FUD-sters and liers. And don't get me... See more

Big time scammers

Big time scammers. They lure you saying it is a easy and simple task and do not talk about trading initially. This time round they said it is YouTube tasks where you have to subscribe and you get to start earning. But. When you get to withdraw what they say you made then they put their rules saying you have to trade in bitcoins. They make you invest and guarantee you returns. This vicious cycle goes on and more money goes on stake and then if you loose they say you cannot withdraw the money they said you made till you get a profit from the trade. Seems like they have decoy players too. Do not ever trust them.

Cryptocompare.com acquisition by Coindesk

Recently Coindesk acquired Cryptocompare.com, which was great system for modelling your virtual portfolios. They obviously bought the company to milk it dry. CD don’t respond on messages and their money hungry attitude will make Cryptocompare after so many years completely useless.

They let you make a little money and then they freeze the account where you have to put in a large amount of money to get your money out, it happens several times during the transaction , a scam.

They are a scam, you put money into the account and then they freeze the account and make you put in a large amount to get your money out, and this process keeps occurring until you can’t afford to get your money back, my money is stuck in the account.

Totally misleading…

Their disclosure statement mentions financial compensation, including options in the Bullish group, which creates a conflict of interest. 'Articles' are completely positive biased (not at all balanced) despite claimed editorial independence. Their information in numerous 'news articles ' are in fact biased totally towards expressing an only positive view of crypto - afterall, that is their bred and butter, generating interest in crypto, which is central to their business model. Crypto is influenced by popularity and interest, and these guys know it so well, information control is central to the information they deliver.

I invest in a highly competent crypto

I invest in a highly competent crypto. It is well managed and likely to be the overall winner in the crypto space. Coindesk writes false news about my token for some kind of agenda. Don't use them as financial news.

Shill Desk

DO not trust. They heavily promote networks that are constantly losing people money via hacks and attacks.
They pretend to be news but its play to play.

Pathetic scammers

Pathetic scammers who promote pump and dump cryptocurrency projects that destroy ordinary people financially, and then smear genuine financial newsworthy stories about Blackrock ETF funds being tokenised. Scum.

Market manipulators

Not journalism. Don't ever trust their posts. They're paid for shilling specific coins.
They don't check sources and spread misinformation on purpose to their audience for their own profit. Market manipulators.
They must be investigated!

They write opinions next to false facts.

I had followed them for 4 years now and could not be more disappointed in the false information and opinions they push. They make up false information in order to spread FUD within the crypto community. They are KNOWN for having to correct their articles since most of them are written in opinions by people who do not understand the tech. It's like having a 5 year old write a paper on Gravity, except I think a 5 year old knows more about gravity than coindesk knows about crypto. Pathetic how this company is allowed to push false information to the public. SCAM DESK.
