You mean to include all the links that we have reported in the past? Or do we start from today? I had reported countless shillers from BG. Many of their post were either moved to Incentivised Posting / Shill section or trashed! So I'm a little confused.

Here is one that I noticed recently! Some of his other posts also indicate to the exchange!

Admin has only recently been made aware of the extent of this, we've just dealt with it until now as mods do. That might be part of the confusion here.

If someone were to produce a list of all the bitget shills recently, say from the start of the year, reported in the IP thread, then I imagine it'd be worth +1 karma per link

Mainly because I suspect an admin hammer might arrive shortly.

Thanks for letting me know about this thread, dragononcrypto.

I counted 162 links (I hope I'm not wrong) on DYING_S0UL's post, so +162.

admin · « **Reply #5 on:** April 24, 2025, 12:47:53 AM »

@DYING_S0UL tnx +10 karma

@dragon, i came across few myself, but dismissed it as i wasn't aware of the extent

but if you look at this post: https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=325087.0

you do realise that the organisation is pretty shady.

This list, I guess, is about BG itself mentioning only. BG shills are shilling some tokens from this exchange also to not name the exchange itself. If the topic you shared is correct, that can be the reason.

Yeah, they do that without mentioning the name, they use the event names that keeps changing once in a while, their native token, and are mentioned in the charts or any image they use in a thread and then the random project's names.
And I still wonder how they became so big with all these shady promotions.

Excellent, that's the sort of workrate to karma ratio i want to see

Not surprised by this. It's what you'd expect from a project that is shilling, general shadiness, facilitating and promoting scams as core business etc.

Per my comment on the previous thread though, about not blacklisting the words, if others believe it should happen then I'm not opposing. It'd be strange to have topics opened such as BG exchange hacked (again), and then for the word to be blacklisted within such discussions, but at the same time it is most of the IP/shill reports right now, so is totally due for big hammer time.

Ideally we could blacklist with a reference to this thread, or the other scam accusation? At least then every-time they shills reference the exchange, it will redirect to them

I'm going to be among those who would abstain. I see both positive and negative consequences of this action, so will also accept the decision of the majority as the result.

It might be worth taking such a decision to the senate as that's what it's there for, especially with difficult decisions that might be better decided collectively for broader input.

I would also abstain if not obvious by previous comment, and while I respect predominantly D team members calling for such an action to occur, it would nonetheless be better decided/influenced by elected representatives instead (granted there is some overlap there, but you get my point I think about using official channels etc). At least then if there are negative consequences or considerable opposition from users thereafter, it wouldn't be blamed on admin/president. My guess is that such a proposal might not get the necessary support in the senate, which would also be all the more reason to take that proposal there...

I personally started hunting them last year - I even opened a separate topic about it -> BG shilling and forum actions!

There's no doubt about it, not only are they shady in every sense, but I would venture to say that they use people from third world countries to do their dirty work for them and pay them in mostly worthless tokens. My opinion is that the forum has nothing to lose by blacklisting that word - but I will also say that it will not solve the problem because shills will still use other techniques to promote that company.

In this regard, my proposal is to ban beginners from posting images and direct (clickable) links until they prove that they are here with a sincere motive to be useful members of the forum.

The most annoying of all is that they also post garbage without shilling any token or bitget, probably to disguise themselves as normal users
For instance, this guy
https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?action=profile;area=showposts;u=98327

Run a search on "Bitget" and you will see that although 75% of his posts are about that he also does "genuine" no shill posts.

Anyhow as long as the warning appears only on the hyperlink they will keep posting without it. AI generated messages and accounts can be created in seconds nowadays.
