The co-founder of Dogecoin DOGE/USD , Billy Markus, has gone on Twitter to talk about cryptocurrency bots on the platform.
He tweeted, saying he sees fewer spambots than before and wonderedif Twitter has done anything about the issue.
im seeing less twitter crypto scam bots?
why is nobody talking about this! Shibetoshi Nakamoto (@BillyM2k) September 30, 2022
Marcus said he has noticed that the amount of crypto spambots he sees on Twitter has decreased significantly.
i wonder if the cost of mass spamming the same obvious stupid scam exceeded the amount of people gullible enough to believe the obvious stupid scam, or if twitter actually did something Shibetoshi Nakamoto (@BillyM2k) September 30, 2022
He then referred to 200 Binance CZ bots, which would respond to his tweets immediately. However, he said there are now only20.
(and by less i mean, instead of 200 immediate ones every tweet, theres only like 20 obvious scam bots!) Shibetoshi Nakamoto (@BillyM2k) September 30, 2022
Responding to Markus, one of his followers said this could be natural selection.
Maybe natural selection? Any people dumb enough to get scammed already got scammed and no one clicks the links anymore forcing scammers to cut costs? Atum (@DefiApes) September 30, 2022
A Twitter user named @WholeMarsBlog said he sees the same amount of bots.
im still seeing the same amount lol maybe even more than before Whole Mars Catalog (@WholeMarsBlog) September 30, 2022
Here is how Marcus responded to him.
