NFT Influencer Marketing – Smart Strategy or Just Another Pump & Dump?

[Olivia Mia]

Influencer marketing isn’t the problem it’s how it’s used. If an influencer hypes a project just to dump on their followers, that’s a scam. But if they believe in the project and disclose any sponsorship, it can be a legit way to spread awareness. The real issue is accountability. Influencers should be held responsible for pushing bad projects, just like any promoter in other industries. Transparency is key.

Influencer marketing in the NFT space often feels like a scam, with hype-driven pumps followed by rapid exits that leave regular investors stuck holding worthless assets. While influencers might bring attention, their impact tends to be more about short-term gains than long-term value, often misleading people rather than genuinely growing the space.
