There is also a somewhat amusing IOTA write up on shitcoin.com "IOTA: Cannot be used for IoT. Loss of funds may occur." https://shitcoin.com/iota-cannot-be-used-for-iot-loss-of-fun...

The writer of the article essentially admitted it was bullshit and wrote it just to manipulate the market: https://twitter.com/ShitcoinDotCom/status/965910847645212672

Where is the part where he admitted it was bullshit?

Indeed "Our short of #IOTA on @bitfinex has closed at a profit of over 30%. Who said writing doesn't pay?" could open him to criminal prosecution if it was bullshit. It's legal to short something and make legitimate criticisms but spreading lies to drop the price is not.

Article probably didn't have a dent on price; the whole market dropped.
