BeInCrypto
X Head of Product Nikita Bier claims 80% of crypto activity is bot-driven, suggesting technical solutions cannot fully resolve the platform's spam crisis.Summary
Nikita Bier, X's Head of Product, has stated that 80% of crypto-related activity on the platform is generated by bots, making it impossible to solve the spam problem through traditional technical measures alone. Despite previous efforts to purge bot accounts and restrict incentivized posting, Bier argues that the only viable solution is to implement 2nd-degree reply restrictions. This perspective has resonated with industry leaders like Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko, who acknowledges that while X is a problematic environment, it remains the primary channel for public communication in the crypto industry.
