CoinVoice has learned that CryptoQuant founder Ki Young Ju stated that the X platform is suppressing the influence of cryptocurrency-related posts but has failed to curb the surge in automated spam, which is punishing legitimate users. Data shows that automated activity related to the keyword “crypto” has surged, generating over 7.7 million posts per day. Ki Young Ju pointed out that the X platform cannot distinguish between automated accounts and real users, and the paid verification system has become a tool for bots to send mass messages.

Nikita Bier, product head of the X platform, said that the visibility issues in the crypto community partly stem from users overposting low-value content, such as repeatedly sending “gm,” which dilutes the daily reach of accounts. In response to these comments, Ki Young Ju said that the X platform would rather ban crypto content than improve bot detection, which is very absurd. Currently, the X platform remains the main real-time communication hub in the crypto industry.
