Other sources of crypto news and prices

If you search the web you’ll find hundreds of websites, YouTube channels, TikToks, Instas and Facebook pages all dedicated to news about crypto and pricing information and predictions.

Some sources are better than others, and be wary about channels raving about specific, little know cryptos and how they’re about to explode in value or go to the moon as they may well be shilling the coins in the hope of gaining from a price increase as awareness grows.

As with everything, do your own research and visit multiple sources to ensure that the crypto news and pricing information you’re getting is accurate.
