On the X platform, issues such as fake accounts, impersonation, and phishing links have long plagued users in the cryptocurrency community. In response, Binance co-founder Zhao Changpeng (CZ) publicly called on Musk to take measures to completely ban bot accounts on the platform.

In a post on X on March 9, CZ wrote: "If someone uses tools like Grok, ChatGPT, or DeepSeek to generate tweets and manually copy and paste them here, that's fine, but automatic posting of content via API should be prohibited."

In another comment, CZ further distinguished between automated bots on social media and AI agents. He stated that AI agents have practical uses in real life, such as booking hotels or writing code, and do not require social interaction, whereas automated bots are different.

For a long time, automated bots on the X platform have been a highly criticized issue, especially rampant in the cryptocurrency sector. These bots frequently post false advertisements, promote phishing websites, and engage in "Pump-and-Dump" schemes, posing a serious threat to users.

The bot problem on the X platform is deeply rooted

Since Musk acquired the X platform in 2022, the crypto community has continuously called for him to address the issue of bot proliferation. However, so far, relevant governance measures have had little effect.

Musk has proposed several solutions to combat bots, one of which is to require users to link a credit card and charge a small fee for creating new accounts, thereby increasing the cost for bot farms to generate fake accounts on a large scale and curbing the activity of bot accounts at the source.

Currently, these bots often impersonate opinion leaders or celebrities in the crypto industry, luring users to purchase fake tokens or directing them to malicious websites through phishing links, thereby stealing funds.

Even more concerning is that AI-generated chatbots have also fueled romance scams such as "pig butchering." In such scams, criminals gain the trust of victims through prolonged social interaction, then falsely claim to be in financial trouble or promote fake investment projects to defraud victims of their money.

In 2023, a study by the Network Contagion Research Institute found that bots artificially inflated the prices of altcoins by collaboratively posting multiple messages, thereby manipulating market prices.
