FUDster
A FUDster is someone who spreads Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD) about a cryptocurrency or financial asset, often to manipulate prices downward. In crypto communities, FUDsters may deliberately share misleading or exaggerated negative information.
Example
“Community members identified a known FUDster who had been posting fake screenshots of a protocol exploit on Twitter, likely to drive the token price down so they could buy at a discount.”
