Yes that was suck. Almost big twitter crypto related account get crypto scam bot who will reply on every tweet they make, usually their (bot) tweet will start with "big news" kinda vibe. It's annoying to just scroll some bot post to search meaningful conversation between crypto people on twitter.
Twitter doesn't do much to make thing right, I mean the scammer always making the bot when the account got suspended and they going smarter day by day, from just copying the nickname and profile picture to using a verified account (the blue checkmark thingy). It needs to stop.
some people using another crypto related platform though like, invested.
Unfortunately, it is really not a trivial problem to solve. It involves many things, you can't just put a big ban on all of them, they will keep coming, you must figure a way out of automatically telling if they are going to spam or not. This is obviously very hard to estimate. I think we are going to keep seeing these bots/scammers spamming unless they increase the amount of moderators constantly checking out profiles and manually banhammering them. As of today, we don't have the technology to stop it.
Realize that not even phone verification is useful to stop someone creating 15.000 accounts. We have a similar problem here but in twitter is even worse, and in here we only have a captcha.
It is really nuts how literally seconds after someone famous makes a post the replies get filled with fake crypto giveaways. This is only targeted to the biggest noobs because everyone else would not fall for it.
