I do not think anything good will use force to get the attention of the public or investors in the world of cryptocurrency. I mean there will be advertisement and other ways to make a project known to the world, but using force to expose it to the mass people is not acceptable and there might be something wrong in it. So the projects forcing investors or bounty hunters to get their attention maybe scammers. Stay away from them.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Some notorious mindless feeders had use bot in inviting me to various telegram group, causing my phone to near crash.  I had to migrate the telegram to desktop on my PC and deleted it from my phone. From the desktop version, I put a setting in place, making it impossible for anyone to add me to any group except I join myself. Some of these persons who add participants do so at the request of some ICO and project to make their investors think they have a large community of followers.

If that project do that kind of activity then stop believing that it's a good project. They are forcefully inviting members to gain attraction and make the new joiners and investors of that project to become confident that many are investing to them. This is very popular marketing trick today, they are increasing the number of their telegram channel and will start few conversations but notice on how many are actually going to reply to them, if its few then obviously most of the members are added forcefully if not, most are bots.

You can just set your account to be prohibited by the invites and only your contacts can add you to the telegram. This is not new, and ever since many group are doing this so they can have more followers. Just leave the group and report it, but I believe the report system will not work on telegram that's not a forced invite, they forced you to join.

Do not pay attention to this, if you are not interested. There are many ways to engage your audience and spam is one of them.

It is not usually done by the team but rather some greedy bounty hunters. They get rewards per the number of users they are able to invite into the group. Because of their selfish interest, they will add you even without prior notice.

For me so reasons are involved, am I a victim of this joining too many groups that I don't know of either by bot or someone will just add you without any notice,it really annoying at a time when you see yourself in too many useless telegram group.

It's unethical to add your telegram account to any telegram groups without permission of the owner. I have been added in many projects telegram group and to be honest I'm mad as some of them are scam projects. However, I did stay in some telegram groups if it's interesting and legit.

that's strange. just take a break and leave all those funny groups and channels. and I think you should try to change your privacy settings as it seems you have set them to the public as anyone can add you into their groups, this sucks and happens a lot on telegram as more and more people are being careless every day. I guess we should make a site or thread to list all the scam sites and groups so everyone does not waste their time on these useless scams and groups.

in my opinion it's normal and can be overcome only that all I hate from telegram is scammers who try to send chat to ask for help which is certain that is the remaining scam mode is the referral spreader link

In many bounty campaigns there is a condition to invite your friends to telegrams in their community or channel, so nothing surprising. But in most cases, as you said, these are just fraudulent projects that are trying to profit from us.

In fact, you are right, there are a lot of fraudsters in Telegram, they change their names to other known names. One must be very vigilant in this network.
They wanted to scam people by hiding to this process, bot's will do everything to adds potential victims,it's needed to be more extra careful and never to entrust your money, don't believe into something that you already have a doubts, you'll regret everything after for sure.

I don't believe most bounty project most of then used this process to advertise their scam project. Many telegrams I joined is just rubbish. The vision and mission is to sake their coin. Forcing people to join  because of bounty reward is out of it. It should be voluntary action.

Invitation without prior notice and done by bots? A BIG NO NO. To avoid those invitations to happen again, do this.

1st : Open your telegram account, go to settings
2nd : Go to Privacy and Security
3rd : Under Privacy, go to Groups then select "My Contacts" as Who can invite you to groups and channels
4th : Don't add any contacts. Just join your desired channel if you wish by getting their TG Profile link then Save.

Those invitations might be a part of bounty campaign or artificial growth of community to attract investors for selfish reasons. Leave those groups and report spam if you wish.
It's really work? I don't have add any contacts, but my telegram always auto joined some group, it's really annoying and most of them is just a spam group, I need to manual leave group one by one.

I don't think good or legit projects need to forced/invite to join project telegram group because in good project people going to joined own responsibility. Still i joined a lot of groups but i didn't joined in every group, auto bot or manually invited in those group. Spam message is another big disaster for telegram users i think.
