Few changes on the list: New ANN added, [ANN]✅TOZEX ✅- CryptoAsset Platform for Issuing, Financing & Trading 💵Same accounts that are working on Cocos BCX and Goldario are writing there too, with the help of few brand new accounts, that were actually made in 2018/2019, but just now woke and started writing their first posts there. [MainNet Stage] Cocos-BCX‘s First Batch of 38 Ecosystem Buidlers & Angels List was deleted some time ago, but they have another thread with the same name where they keep doing the same thing - shilling Cocos BCX, so instead of that thread, I've put the link of the new one (number 21 on the list). That's one of the weirder cases, as that project is already listed on exchanges like Binance, so I am not sure what they can gain from hiring bumping service.

Another thread which is using bumping services is Largo Coin. ( Archived) The thread was created on November 2019. It got no attention until April 22, 2020, when some newbies registered on forum and became active in their thread. Thank you, Largo Coin added to the list. Something fishy is definitely going on there, as all those newbie accounts didn't come by pure chance, and it coincides with them starting to pump their coin like crazy. According to CMC, Largo Coin ROI at the moment is 2,656.32% and I seriously doubt that number. With few other red flags like no team (at least no real identity) and promise of few other top exchanges, to me this looks like another pump&dump scheme.

Two new announcement threads added to the list of projects that are hiring bumping service: [ANN] PIVX LITE\POS v3.0\PIVX Masternodes\USB Tor\Mobile Wallets SoonPIVX thread as made few months ago, but since they didn't get any attention, week ago they decided to get some by hiring this so called "maketing agency" to help them attract some interest. Accounts that are active on their thread are working on Relictum, Index Chain, MASS etc. [ANN] OPP Open WifiOPP thread has been spammed by newbie accounts with either newbwie accounts that woke up just to write there, or accounts that are working on several other projects that hired the same service ( Cocos-BCX, Goldario, Covir.io ) and are already on the list.

Yep, they are using that service for sure, bunch of newbie accounts writing oneliners. BitStorage ANN has been added to the list. Another ANN has been added, [ANN][PYRK][POW-MULTI][SHA][SCRYPT][X11][MASTERNODES][COMMUNITYFUND][EXCHANGE]. Beside having scam accusations for plagiarized whitepaper, PYRK team decided to hire known bumping service that is also working on several others ANN that are already on the list, like Cocos-BCX, OPP Open Wifi, Covir.io etc

Two new ANN threads have been added to the list: 37. [ANN] [CryptoNight] BminerCoin - Heavy mining and remote control As explained in this post from SpamBusters topic, it is an obvious case of thread bumping, that is still going on. 38. 🚀AFFILCOIN: STAKE & DELEGATE |DPoS|🔥PROFIT-10% a month|🤑PROMO-EARN 100k COINSBeside being generally shady project with affiliate shenanigans, there are also several red flags that point to use of bumping service: - almost no activity for the first few months since ANN creation, and then suddenly week ago thread got significant increase in activity
- thread full of one liners and quote pyramids
- accounts used are Newbie rank made in 2018/2019 with no prior posting history
- majority of accounts are also bumping another project that is already on the list, Tozex

Can you check and add this topic for MARTKIST coin? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5219308.0Topic is full of pyramid posts from members like escalante28 and others. Not sure they use some bumping service or not.

I noticed that activity in Martkist ANN as well, but since I am not 100% certain that they hired someone to do bumping for them, I didn't include them on the list. At least not for now, but I wilk keep an eye on them. There are some connections though with another suspicious thread that might have hired someone, Stake TERN on BlockCard For The Best Crypto Debit Card. For that thread there is more evidence, but gonna observe it for a while, before adding it to the list
Update Goldario ponzi scheme ANN thread has been deleted, therefore current status has been changed to reflect that.

Yep, without a doubt ZenLedger hired bumping service to promote their project, as I can see those accounts worked on several other threads in the past, like Amfeix and Lukki exchange among others, for which they got tagged . Good find, ANN added to the list!

I can't find Bitwings ICO on the list. It is obvious they are using bumping services.
They are indeed using bumping service, and for quite some time. I've been planning to add them for some time, but somehow i forgot, thanks for reminder, Bitwings added to the list, as 40th ANN identified and accounts tagged! Also connected with higher ranked members like kpcian that is banned now and some others also... Yep, all merits came from few banned accounts. It is either same group, or account sale. In any case, it is an obvious merit abuse.

One more announcement thread added to the list [ANN] EURST ~ Eurst Cryptocurrency Technology Driven ServicesBeside being busted for plagiarizing whitepaper from two different sources, EURST decided to go full retard as they hired bumping service to additionally promote this scammy project. So now they have red tagged newbie accounts spamming their thread and pretending to be interested, hoping to lure someone new and inexperienced.

Three new additions to the list, still have no clue how those "marketing agencies" manage to sell that when it's so fake and totally ineffective. [ANN] V SYSTEMS - Blockchain Database and App Platform by Sunny King [SPoS/Mint]V Systems have their ANN for quite some time, and it looks like they used bumping service in the past and stopped, but recently they reactivated. Accounts that are "working" in their thread are also active in another one on the list, Cocos BCX. [ANN] [IEO] [p2pb2b] | 30% Bonus | L2L Token | Sustainable WorldSimilar situation like in previous case. Thier ANN is from previous year, but they recently started IEO on P2PB2B exchange, so decided to "spice" it up with some shitposting and spamming, courtesy of bumping service group. Accounts active there also worked on XBR and Arc Iris in the past. BINARY OPTIONS SIGNALS EPIC 400% TRADER GROUP - HIGH ACCURACY SIGNALS 24 HOURSRecently started ANN that didn't loose time-they saw that nooen commented in their thread for 10 days, so they decided to hire bumping service to fake hype and interest. Looks like the same one V Systems hired, accounts active in Spectre.ai are also active there as well.

Jully. plus all of them use upper case in username. it is very likely all accounts have the same owner, the only question is whether they are property of this L2L Token, or they just use third part paid bumping service.

Another Ann Thread Using Bumping service: Project: Clipx Ann Thread link: [ANN] ⚡ [ICO] 🎬 clipX - E-Learning Platform on BlockchainArchived link: http://archive.is/Z9f8IThis project is surely using ann Thread bumping service. Till 27th june that thread had only 22posts. But in last 2days this thread has been flooded by some newbie posts. All are 1sentence posts. And many accounts have only one post that are on this thread. In last two days the posts amount reached to 55 from 22. I think you should add this too your list. Check the links thanks.

Yeah those accounts were made in a bulk, and probably by the same person. I would say that they are part of the bumping group and not property of L2L as before they were active in their thread, they worked in few other ANN, specifically in Arc Iris, Marketpeak and XBR, and all those hired bumping service. If they were made by L2l, they would spam only there. At least that's the standard practice, from I noticed so far. Another Ann Thread Using Bumping service: Project: Clipx

You are right, something fishy is going on there. At first it might look as they hired someone, but since post quality is so bad, it made me belive that they might organized an airdrop, and part of the requirement was to comment there. So I checked their telegram group, and it might be the case, but since airdrop finished, I can't be 100% sure. If they indeed gave tokens in an exchange for comments, that was breaking of forum rules and for that admins delete such threads. As you can see in the screenshot below, they didn't explicitly said to comment there in order to get tokens, but since they mentioned that there will be more airdrop rounds, gonna keep an eye on them so i can actually try that telegram bot, so see whether comments on bitcointalk are part of it. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.postimg.cc%2FMHs5BrTd%2Fair.jpg&t=665&c=7Dicr48v1UEZHQ)

I will keep an eye on them also. I think they are using service. Because some of the accounts are from 2014 but they are only posting on ann thread. So, those accounts must be the accounts of that service seller. But you can also be right they might use the airdrop system to bump the thread. let's see the next round of airdrop.
