CryptoQuant Founder Reveals X Platform Limits Real User Visibility Amid Bot Surge
Written by Ohris M. Greyoon, Blockchain & Crypto Expert
- Declining User Visibility: According to CryptoQuant founder Ki Young Ju, X platform generated over 7.7 million automated crypto-related posts in a single day, leading to reduced visibility for real users, highlighting the platform's inadequate response to automated abuse.
- Algorithm Ineffectiveness: Ju pointed out that X's algorithms suppress crypto content to counter the surge in automated activity, failing to effectively distinguish between human behavior and bot patterns, which results in suppressed engagement for genuine users.
- Verification Model Failure: He criticized X's paid verification model for not acting as a quality filter, allowing bots to pay to amplify spam while authentic users face reduced visibility, creating an absurd situation for real engagement.
- User Behavior Impact: X's internal leader Nikita Bier argued that excessive posting by crypto accounts is a key factor in declining visibility, as frequent low-value replies consume visibility meant for important updates, indicating that user behavior significantly affects platform engagement.
