Selling #crypto is forbidden on Mastodon, so some of your multiple identical toots hawking #CryptoScams to various users have been reported to the instance admins.

Sorry your stay here couldn't have been longer. It's a nice ADVERTISER-FREE platform, without trolls, and we plan to keep it that way.

You might want to try selling on #Xitter. I hear Elon loves guys like you.

Bye!

Huh. 1.9M tuned in? That matches about the numbers of the #metamask #cryptospam I was seeing in the trending area.

Resum: el #fedivers no els hi és una bona font d'ingressos.

L👀ks like there is a #cryptospam attack going on at #XCorp

Check out these screenshots.

1.57M hits is the top trending with the hashtag #metamask

How many users are actually LEFT at this #JAFW ?! 👀👀

 On one hand having to blast spammers is annoying.

 On the other hand it does mean that a precious ad-free zone badly wants to be penetrated precisely because it is rare and valuable in this world and we own it. Let’s keep defending it. Thanks to members for issuing reports, thanks to admins for forwarding them to the attacked sources. Together we will defeat the pernicious pollution of #cryptospam

Public Notice

Lots of reports of crypto spam attacks coming in from multiple instances today.

Seems like the bad guys are getting kinda worried about Mastodon.

Instance admins are taking this very seriously and working hard to fend off the attacks.

What can you do? If you see a crypto scam post, don't engage with it. It's just a bot anyway. If you block and report the post it will help administrators isolate the attacker account.

We got this!

He creat un codi #Python que compta la quantitat de nous usuaris per minut i si son 5 o més, modifica el mode de registre de mastodont.cat de obert a cal aprovació.
D'aquesta manera, si es registressin un fotimer de bots de #cryptospam només seria durant un minut perquè el bot @protector s'executa cada minut i tancaria la porta automàticament al minut següent de començar els seus registres.
