The cryptocurrency scams have spread like wildfire on Twitter for a while now, but today it was confirmed by the CEO of Twitter that they are trying to stop it. Hopefully, the issue will be resolved soon or at least stops the majority of them

It is very annoying to see a flood of scam tweets following a tweet by a well-known person.

How do you think they will implement this?Will they do like what facebook did? What ever they do, I hope, it is flexible enough so that legit crypto will still have space on twitter.

the Twitter scams are kind of unique. it has nothing to do with Facebook and banning the cryptocurrencies (competition for their token).
in Twitter you see a tweet from someone well known, like Charlie Lee (creator of litecoin) then under that tweet in the comments you see the same name but from another account with the same picture and everything is posting something scam. like spreading FUD, giving fake links, spreading malware,...
