  Shills often use social media platforms like Twitter and Reddit to promote cryptocurrencies. They create multiple accounts to make it seem like there's a lot of positive buzz around a particular coin. These accounts post positive comments, retweet or upvote positive posts, and engage in discussions to generate hype and attract new investors. It's important to be cautious of accounts with low activity or suspiciously high activity, as they could be shills trying to manipulate the market.

  Another common tactic used by shills is to spread false information or exaggerated claims about a cryptocurrency's potential. They might create fake news articles, blogs, or YouTube videos to convince people that a certain coin is the next big thing. These tactics aim to create FOMO (fear of missing out) and drive up demand, allowing the shills to sell their holdings at a higher price. It's crucial to always verify information from multiple reliable sources before making any investment decisions.
