Title: Trade.io is incentiving spams to promote it?
Post by: LeGaulois on July 06, 2018, 03:22:23 PM
For a few days I noticed that the site was often mentioned in various sections of the forum. At first, I didn't pay attention to the site.
But after seeing it mentioned several times, I wondered what the site could have so special, I'd never heard of before. Then I noticed that almost all the members who talk about the site are Newbie/Junior, Full members at the best.

Then I looked at their activity posting, and most of them post only to talk about trade.io

They open a new topic each time, and usually never post in an already open discussion if they're not the OP.
Some users are 100% posting about it while some are mixing it with others posts

I Have seen their post and it is totally sure that they are spamming here. They are using multi account to post only for trade.io

Most likely "YES". I read some of their posts and it appears, it's part of their marketing strategy (prior to its upcoming launch).

I suggest to report one of their posts and add this thread as a reference for other users/posts.

The accounts and posts you have linked are definitely spam.

The problem is deciding whether to sanction trade.io or its bounty participants. I took a look at their bounty thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2370663.0) and it seems like they offered no such paid services for shilling.

Just my speculation, but most likely trade.io is dealing under the table with people(person) who has/have access to multiple shill accounts.
