TRON — (TRX) Coin Perspective Part 2: Addressing FUD + “Unwarranted FOMO”
7 min readJan 8, 2018
Explaining FUD + analysis of how it has effected TRON these past few days.
The term “FUD” stands for fear, uncertainty and doubt.
FUD is a common marketing/political technique used to influence public perception of a target by spreading dubious and false information about the targeted company. The goal with FUD is: to create a sense of distrust and unrest within the targeted company’s community.
The concept is simple:
Consumers WILL NOT support what they DO NOT trust, so make them LOSE TRUST and they WILL NOT support.
The final point about FUD that I want to make is this:
FUD as an appeal to fear is nonmonotonic.
