Yes, unfortunately shills not only do their dirty work but also abuse merits - now the only question is how did they get merits at all - on the black market or did they manage to deceive someone with their posts?
Most of the merits were acquired from some boards where senior members and merit sources thought they were encouraging newbies probably post much better and rank up. Fortunately, the shills are so stupid, and they kept sharing the merits within the network of their alts.
They just do three common things
1. Make posts using AI
2. Shill bitget
3. Merit shit posts of their alt accounts.

@logfiles, my report on the topic in question resulted in a lock, which is better than if nothing happened - but it would still be better if the topic was deleted. Moderators unfortunately do not delete topics that have several pages, although those who unknowingly (or knowingly) participate in such fake discussions would be much more careful if several of their posts were deleted every week.

I need a reference for the report so I'll just edit this post to show the moderator the obvious intent in the next topic.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.64765238 - Shill 2

Of course, the OP is a long-detected shill.

Thanks for this

It turns out that Bournesparks is linked to the OP of that shill thread (VicManton). Just like VicManton, Bournesparks shills the same exchange and has resorted to even posting screenshots so that he may not be caught if you look at his post history

VicManton sent 2 merits to Bournesparks in another rather useless reply, shilling B i t g e t and guess who the OP was? VicManton!

Through the merit network;


Bournesparks also received merit from Iamcrypticguy another shill
jokers10    2024-04-23    Reference    MarvieJ uses his account to shill and also uses AI bot for posting. Passing off others' words as your own and shilling are shady. So I suppose dealing with this account can be risky.

Ticdeneb
jokers10    2024-02-23    Reference    Ticdeneb uses AI bot for posting. Passing off others' words as your own is shady. So I suppose dealing with this account can be risky.

Bournesparks in turn sends some merits to R1dwanRz in another useless shill post
R1dwanRz as well already has two tags
nutildah    2024-07-28    Reference    Bitget shill + AI shitposter
jokers10    2024-01-16    Reference    R1dwanRz uses AI bot for posting. Passing off others' words as your own is shady. So I suppose dealing with this account can be risky.

This justifies that the accounts are under the control of one person and have no good intentions in this forum

This post will act as my reference for the tags

Hopefully the message will get out that if you spam Bitget here, your posts will get deleted
My spam keyword list seems to disagree Sad

They are like cockroaches that simply cannot be exterminated - and the only thing that would have an effect, in my opinion, would be blocking keywords, instead of which something like "shilling banned" would be displayed. It may sound too radical, but a company that pays for this kind of advertising does not deserve better treatment.

However, one more important fact should be highlighted, which is that we see that some more experienced members knowingly/unknowingly participate in shilling by entering discussions in which they should not participate.

The user's 15 post hisotry only filled with B i t g e t related posts like this one
$DOGE has recently experienced notable price growth, drawing attention from both traders and investors. In response, some exchanges are introducing new initiatives to engage their users.
For instance, B i t g e t has launched "Diamond Thursday," a weekly event where participants can trade BTC and potentially earn DOGE rewards. This program aims to turn regular trading activity into additional opportunities.

What are your thoughts on the current $DOGE market trend? How are you approaching it?
He was previously tagged by OP for shilling yet another exchange.

I didn't actually see any Bitcointalk submissions but I only scrolled through about 36 hours of the participation posts before I got bored.
I did scroll through the submissions too without seeing any recent Bitcointalk related screenshots. It definitely means that the reports and compilation threads like this one are doing a great job deterring the shills from spamming in this forum.
Most of the culprits have resorted to using other community platfroms.

So when I see posts that follow these instructions by known Bitget shills, I'm gonna report them as spam and use this as the reference.

Do you know what channel this takes places in on the server? I was rooting around through there, couldn't find anything about the shilling campaign.
This is the link to the channel ---> https://discord.com/channels/876747633052499999/1051775754083504168 (Or if you are in the server, you can see something like  ⚡|rp-claims)
In the task2earn-on-discord channel, you can clearly see that they keep asking users to post in different crypto communities and then earn some coins by posting screenshots  Grin

From what I understand, the whole thing is coordinated through their discord server (https://discord.com/invite/bitget), where participants have to post their proof of work screenshots in order to get rewarded. They post in every community and Bitcointalk happens to be one of them, so there are many participants and very many POW posts.
I don't think you will find it easy tracking all of them. I also don't think there is a spreadsheet of sorts, as the verification and rewarding seems somewhat automated

I had an account here because our country banned Binance, and this is a good option. However, I have not used their platform because of what I see on how they run their shilling marketing now; it was mentioned that they run a signature campaign here, so they should stick to this method. Still, instead, they prefer a resort to this kind of marketing that could result to a word filter.
I have a bad feeling about this exchange, even though I checked on Coingecko, and they had a good trust rating.

I don't see what any of this has to do with what I posted. You've been full of shit since your very first post. Lucky for you, there's some campaigns here that are still happy to have you, so long as you churn out spam at a consistent rate. Also, yes, its true, I have better things to do with my time.

Do you know I don't really give a shit about what you think?
I never expect any of you to believe me. And I feel honored with all of you becoming some sort of monitoring spirits. Also, as someone is willing to pay because of me, which reminds me of some movies. Anyway, it would be better if you do something tangible with your time. But honestly, I wish you would go deeper into someone else's matters Grin Cheesy Grin. It's also a job since they are willing to pay you.

I know your type of people. Lol

You don't know shit. You've been here for over 6 years and haven't learned a damn thing, except how to cheat better. The persistent focus on "easy money" has retarded your growth, which is why after 6 years on the forum you are still chasing pennies.

We know you are Cryptolanad; aside from using the same address, you've admitted it in the past. There are several instances of akjuve (banned) depositing ETH to the same address Cryptolanad deposited ETH to.

In addition, such transactions like these could only be made if the same user was controlling all the addresses:

https://etherscan.io/txs?a=0x467c1dce11aa733fdac5cada42207f5c0a1dfc4c&p=2


Why do I know this? Because that's 3 transactions done in 4 minutes. It would require extremely skillful coordination if the parties were different people.

I personally offer a reward for whoever manages to prove that it is ban evasion. There is an old saying that says "he who lies, steals.". I just wonder if these shills realize how much damage they are causing to the company they are promoting in this way?

I spent about half an hour looking into it and there's a huge tangle of alt accounts; its likely possible to connect them in a firmer manner but I don't have time for it at the moment.

These three different chats should answer your query.




Some guys are just trying to find a safe way to back up their keys then, and Ethereum gas fees weren't affordable for everyone, even BNB and Tron. The world is a big one, and there are different kinds of people from various backgrounds, etc., in case you didn't know that

Also, feel free to spend more hours to look for more information. I would appreciate that

So, you are aware that your feedback is not accurate and you still go ahead and drop it? Well, I'm not surprised. As the feedback on your profile states that you lie against people.
Also, you are free to mention the name of the company and let us know. So far your job here is to monitor people's profile and give unnecessary feedbacks.
The feedback is accurate. I don't even know what you are trying to prove here. You have been called out a number of times, and you refused to change, so the feedback is well deserved.

You think your dry threats work here? The best thing you should have done was to acknowledge your mistake and try to change, but instead you are just trying to dig a deeper hole for yourself.

You are trying to prove nonsense. Someone once accused me of this bounty stuff, and I posted several screenshots to prove them wrong. Imagine digging holes that I don't even know about. I think you guys are either retired old people or young guys who have no job.

Also, I saw your feedback, and I think you are satisfied now. Cheesy Roll Eyes You can add as much as you like. I've seen lots of higher-ranked members with lots of feedback like these, and I know people like you with fake trust scores gave it to them. I know your type of people. Lol

Obviously, some people don't mind spam and shills, the only thing that matters is that the daily quota of posts can be fulfilled - even if that means that you participate in a topic with made-up stories that aim to promote some shady company. If you were a moderator on this forum, shills would enjoy it because you wouldn't delete their posts - as long as the storyline is imaginative enough.
Who is this? Someone has already added a neutral tag on you, stating that you are making false claims about something they never said. You claimed I shill different companies without evidence.
~snip~


Anyone can write whatever they want in someone's trust feedback, but it is important that there are facts behind it, and not vengeful feedback that has no basis in fact. My feedback to you is the result of your activity that was detected even before, and the only reason why I didn't write the name of the company you shill is that I don't want to mention that name at all. In addition, all of you who shill one company will sooner or later shill another, so sooner or later that feedback will probably be completely accurate.

Retaliatory feedbacks is very wrong, you don't leave a feedback because you were left one. The exchange you are accused of shilling appears in almost all of your post, isn't that suspicious? Of course you can talk about what interests you in this forum, but when yourself and a lot of other users just show up and start mentioning the name of one company in all posts that you all make, then that is shilling.

Also, he said I shill for different companies. Don't you understand simple English? Show the different company proofs. Well, I can understand you and your friend.

Its pretty obvious you're part of the Bitget spam campaign. You've been called out on it at least a few times in the past.

I've seen different kinds of tags on me about this. I had to ignore them cos thats the only exchange I use. And I research, read news and try to know more about them everyday than other exchanges. So, I mostly prefer to include what I know in my posts or conversation just like anyone would love to do.

Yes, but the word Bitget is present on every page of your posts, which is not normal.
I searched for it here

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?Aaction=profile;u=2809031;Sa=showposts;Start=120
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?Aaction=profile;u=2809031;Sa=showposts;Start=100

this is not a normal behavior for an account that wants to discuss, not promotion

I don't understand what you're complaining about -- that the wording of your second neutral isn't 100% accurate? The point is this: you're shilling a questionable exchange by spamming the forum with useless posts. Neutral tag is pretty fair for a relentless spammer of your nature.

Look at another post of yours two days later, what the hell does it even mean  Roll Eyes
Alticoins might pump fastet than Bitcoin earlier. But when Bitcoin drops, altcoins drops more than 10x of Bitget drop. So, if you are able to make profit in any altcoins, the best decision is to swap to Bitcoin back so that you can still keep on with the game.

I agreed with people who said I mention Bitget too much, and I've reduced that.
You clearly haven't done so, even after getting called out by nutildah. I don't think you will change.

Hmmmm, if someone has some example of sentences they frequently use I can definitely help clean up. They are clearly breaking our rules by having users spam their crap.

I have been tracking every post created with the phrase 'Bitget' since I created this thread via ninjastic bot and as far as I can see they are not using any common sentences in their posts and the most resemblance I found is they use the term Binance and Bitget or Bitget and (another exchange's name) to make it look like they are not shilling even though it's obvious.

If the mods aren't seeing anything wrong with their activities, then why should you? If they were spamming the forum with 1000 different replies and opening hundreds of new threads to shill, then I'm sure the mods would take some action. Just a few little posts is not enough to warrant any action ATM.
It's not just "a few little posts", I just added it to my spam keyword page. Starting from January 24, this keyword wasn't posted in the first 3 months. After that, in just 1.5 months, it was posted 646 times.
Let's notify @Mitchell, see if MindlessElectron can wipe those posts.

As I was reading through some posts on the trading discussion board. I found another shilling post by a notorious shill who is even already neutral tagged about the same thing. The content of the post has nothing to do with the title...lol

Title: Having a Decentralized Derivative Exchange Problem, and I Found Aark Digital

I have been using centralized exchanges (CEX) to trade for years. So, I later decided to try a decentralized one. I switched to Cardence on the Canto network and longed some Canto because I'm a holder. It dumped, and when it got back to my entry price after a few weeks, the fee to close the position was huge, almost $100 USD.

Now, I found another one from this listing notification (<--- Links to the shilled site) on my phone. Because I want to join the futures trade to earn some, I decided to read more about it and I see in their documentation that they offer an Insurance Fund feature: "This safeguards users against unforeseen failures, covering negatively valued accounts using an external liquidity pool replenished by a portion of liquidation bonuses."

I've never heard of this kind of feature. What do you think about this feature, decentralized exchanges in general and about Aark Digital?

It's looks like they have resurrected yet again

I encountered this type of marketing years ago and many are still doing its subtle marketing part of it is content marketing where instead of direct advertising they create a storyline that is relevant to what the audience wants to read of course they mention the platform they are promoting in their storyline.
You are right you have to be innovative to do this and you need engagement, some forums accept this, and some forums don't allow this, and some forums encourage this as long as there are no links in the post.
But it's hard to consider this spam as the content does not revolve around the mentioned product but around the storyline.

But if you checked recent post history of user mentioned by OP, you'll find out that they frequently mention word "bitget" on majority of their post. So it's not subtle marketing and IMO should be considered as spam.

This is why I posted some forums that accept this some forums don't allow this and some forums encourage this as long as there are no links in the post.

When I still had my forum we had some members who created a discussion about current events and they managed to mention the name of the product in a subtle way focusing on the storyline, we sometimes deleted the part that mentioned the service and retained the discussion.

It's really up to the moderators they have full discretion on this as they are guided on what action to take.

I encountered this type of marketing years ago and many are still doing its subtle marketing part of it is content marketing where instead of direct advertising they create a storyline that is relevant to what the audience wants to read of course they mention the platform they are promoting in their storyline.
You are right you have to be innovative to do this and you need engagement, some forums accept this, and some forums don't allow this, and some forums encourage this as long as there are no links in the post.

Obviously, some people don't mind spam and shills, the only thing that matters is that the daily quota of posts can be fulfilled - even if that means that you participate in a topic with made-up stories that aim to promote some shady company. If you were a moderator on this forum, shills would enjoy it because you wouldn't delete their posts - as long as the storyline is imaginative enough.

If the mods aren't seeing anything wrong with their activities, then why should you? If they were spamming the forum with 1000 different replies and opening hundreds of new threads to shill, then I'm sure the mods would take some action. Just a few little posts is not enough to warrant any action ATM.


I think like yahoo
it depends on how the shilling is done, if it is done aggressively and spamming then you will be punished, like any spam is done
introducing banned words can make sense but we risk making it too big and then having false positives

in the examples proposed in the first post it doesn't seem to me that there is such exaggerated spam

I am not sure how many of you have noticed this, but I have seen many threads created by newbies and Jr.Members for a while with innovative ways to shill the name Bitget, which is a relatively new exchange.
But, I will not call this is innovative because they are simply copying those ugly methods. I am sure there had been other businesses/services which already attempted this kind of methodology to promote across this forum. If I remember correctly, fastdice was the one who started a topic on buying high rank forum accounts to promote themselves by early 2016 or around.

You are able to spot those things because they are new topics by newbies but I am sure there should be other accounts who might be spamming across the forum by including above exchange names in replies of existing topics started by other people. I could recall a scenarios where some high rank accounts (above newbie accounts) do mix up some casino name in their each and every post in gambling discussion sub and that continued for considerable amount of time as well (not sure that they stopped themselves or mods took action).

Overall, always some affiliate do spam here on their business somehow. Obviously they are spamming this forum but not explicitly violating any forum rules which is the reason they are enjoying their longer stay.

It is annoying, and such posts can often be reported as spam, especially if they have little to nothing to do with the topic of discussion.


If there is more than an obvious intention (and here it is undoubted), then reporting a post for spam/shilling is not something that will solve the problem, at least not within a normal time frame. BG shills also appeared on the ATT forum, but their admin reacted literally in a few minutes after the report and cleaned them from the system. Some obviously disagree with such actions, but is there any logic in letting someone make a few hundred spam posts in order to be punished?

Late last year, Nutildah created a thread about this behavior: what's up with all the Bitget shills?, and tagged some of these shillers, you can find more names in that topic. It is a very bad behaviour and since they are paying newbies/Jr members for this, they wouldn't mind if they are tagged or if their posts are removed, they'd just continue doing what they are paid to do.

Looks like they reopened their shill campaign that started on what appears to be their Discord:

Yes, look at this event below, even though they didn't state Bitcointalk, but they wrote "crypto community with at least 10K members", this forum is also crypto community and the total members are higher than that.

Is it? It was established in 2018, not so new.

I see the name of the exchange only from last year so I assumed that they are new and also they ran an actual signature campaign on the forum last year for just two weeks then they came back to their shilling campaign.

Likely they won't care about deleting the posts or even banning them cause they will just pop out with new accounts again and do this again and again so the possible solution for stopping them is to put a word filter on Bitget for low-ranked members as hugeblack suggested.

I remember i tried to report thread which spam bitget link few years ago, although only few of them got deleted. I'll just add those users to ignore list, since such SEO spam (without adding direct link to bitget) only removed sometimes by moderator.

After so many years on the forum, you still don't know that mods don't work independently (in most cases) but work according to the reports of forum members. In other words, even if these BG shills made 1000 posts a day, and no one reported it, nothing would happen.



As for it being an innovative shilling, I wouldn't agree with that statement - it's just the absolute bottom that someone can fall to in order to promote their business. I have already tagged several users because of this, because it is an alt farm that works against the rules of the forum - advertising in posts is not allowed.

This SEO spam aka spamdexing started since last year and I started tagging such activity a while ago but I don't see them stopping. Some refer to Bitget as a good exchange but their way of promoting here is disgusting.

The only solution to this problem is by placing a filter or restriction on "Bitget" keyword for newbie-Jr.Members rank and to avoid this restriction, you must rank-up or purchase a copper membership. Thus, this spam will be significantly reduced.
It's probably a futile endeavor but a commendable one, so far I haven't seen a lot of these people posting exactly Bitget but I do see others that are doing similar things where they ask you about this specific website and then they ramble about how they are newbies and they're asking if there are others out there that knows about this website, hoping that someone would click on it. Thank you for the compilation, I assume that it's going to be a big one because there's definitely more accounts that's going to be doing this stupid shilling.

Crypto Exchange tokens or Crypto Wallet Tokens??
by Altcoiner007

Choosing the best cryptocurrency to buy often requires a comprehensive approach, considering factors like market cap, liquidity, fundamentals, community, ecosystem growth, etc. I just got into a fix trying to figure out the smartest pick for my portfolio whether to go with an exchange token or a crypto wallet native token.

I know in theory, a crypto wallet is often considered better than an exchange in terms of security because it gives one complete control over their private keys and funds while exchanges are more convenient for trading. However, they offer greater risk because they control one's keys when their assets are on the platform.

Following the recent BWB Airdrop, and the anticipated launchpad on Bitget which is the platform's first launchpad of 2024, would you consider investing in the wallet token or opt for BGB, the exchange token itself which is becoming more established?

See details: https://cryptopotato.com/bitget-wallet-token-bwb-makes-debut-on-the-bitget-launchpad/

I would be glad to read your opinion on these.


There's Something About This New Crop of CEOs... by Joseph-P

It's been a while since Binance got a new CEO thanks to CZ's departure. I came across a tweet talking about how Binance's online presence hasn't been the same ever since. The tweet talked about the importance of a charismatic Head for any company. Unlike CZ, Mr Teng doesn't seem to have that same type of commanding charisma online. Of course this doesn't affect Binance's order books that much, but in the grand scheme of things, I think it means a lot that folks don't get that same type of vibe anymore.

It's easy to see why Bitget chose to promote Gracy Chen to CEO today or why guys Justin Sun still remain the faces of several top companies. These people are actually quite outspoken online, and know just how to keep users excited about any new innovations in their respective companies. If anything, I guess this instance teaches us about the importance of having an exciting face as the representative of any company.

Don't You Think the Power of Flexible Savings Counts? by VicManton

I've been exploring different ways to earn more from my crypto holdings especially in a volatile market, and flexible savings have been a great option. I’ve checked out several exchanges like Binance, Okex, and Bybit. For instance, Binance offers a 3.65% yield on USDT and 0.74% on ETH, which is decent but not the highest. Okex has a 3% yield on USDT and 1% on ETH, which is also solid but similar to traditional savings in some ways. Bybit's rates are lower, with 1.51% on USDT and 1.19% on ETH, which makes me think there are better opportunities out there.

So I expanded my research and discovered the apy on Bitget PoolX is 18.97% for USDT & 28.61% on ETH. The highest I've seen during this study. Maybe I'll expand my search. If you're holding ETH, I believe this is a way to grow assets without getting caught up in the day-to-day market fluctuations.

While I still use Binance and Okex for different reasons, I still believe that this means of increasing one's holdings can go a long way, because if one saves up $100K he would be getting $2K monthly and that's enough than risking to lose everything to high leverages, how do you see this to count for traders and enthusiasts?

Is trading on CEX still worth it? by Crypto_Potato

These days I buy most of my tokens especially altcoins on decentralised wallets like Jupiter or metamask and I only trade on CEXs when they list tokens I already own and I send my tokens there

The only time I buy tokens on CEXs with my credit card is when exchanges have zero fees events or events like a rebate on a deposit you make like the one Bitget currently have and other CEXs like Binance, kucoin etc.

Do you guys think CEXs are still worth it? Let me hear your thoughts
