Another example of text paraphrasing. Everything is completely rephrased. If you notice, the user copies even speech style. But there are a couple of sentences that are completely copied, which made it possible to find this text.

DeFi is a highly innovative field. New projects tend to explode within a minute, an opportunity that is hard to grasp with DYOR（Do Your Own Research ）.
Anyone can issue scams or air programs, and nothing can stop them. It’s not technically easy, but at the community level, we can talk to each other, identify common fraud patterns, and separate legitimate innovation from fraudulent fraud.
So, here are a few things to keep in mind:

1. What is the purpose of the project?
One thing you can ask is: is the project trying to do something innovative? Are they trying to boost the digital economy with their projects? How is it different from its competitors? Do they have a unique value proposition?
These are very simple, common-sense questions. However, by asking questions to the project side, you can block out some of the fraud.

2. Development Activities
DeFi is tied to the spirit of open source. So, if you know something about code, you can look at the project code.

3.Was the founder anonymous?
Note that not all projects led by anonymous teams are scams. Of course, there are many examples of legitimate projects created by anonymous teams. Still, you should consider the impact of team anonymity when evaluating a project.
So, in short, must the anonymous founder’s project be bad? Not Necessarily. Is it harder for anonymous founders’projects to be held accountable for malicious acts? That’s for sure.

4.How are tokens distributed?
There are many nuances to consider in a token allocation model. In many cases it is even difficult to obtain this information, which is itself a risk. However, this is a basic piece of information that you must have if you want to get a complete picture of the project.

According to datamish data, from about 13:00 on July 8th, Beijing time, it is suspected that a large account (or institution) has lent Bitcoin to sell short on Bitfinex. As of 15:03, a total of 5219 BTC has been lent, and this number is still growing. Most short positions are non-hedged.

At 17:20 on June 25th, Beijing time, a large amount of Bitcoin (or perhaps organized) lent a large amount of Bitcoin on Bitfinex. The price of Bitcoin was around 34,300 at that time. With the increase in the number of bitcoins lent, the price of bitcoin fell in response. As of 21:20, it fell below the 33,000 mark; as of 21:30 Beijing time, a total of 15,157 bitcoins had been lent at a lending rate of 0.004%.

If there is no futures, the cost of shorting Bitcoin will be very high. Is this conducive to the stability of Bitcoin's currency price and reduce the occurrence of skyrocketing and falling?
Do you think I am right?

After experiencing the craziest half a year, China's crypto mining entered a period of drastic turbulence from May to June.

After the craziest half a year, China's crypto mining entered a period of sharp turbulence from May to June. Under the attack of local governments, most domestic mines have been shut down. The miners who just entered the high point this year suffered huge losses. The sell-off of some miners under economic pressure also led to a sharp correction in the crypto market.

Looking at it now, it is a fact that Bitcoin mining consumes a lot of energy, and the government's crackdown is a foregone conclusion. The transition to clean energy should be a long-term solution for the mining industry to seek sustainable development. At the moment, how to dispose of this batch of down-time mining machines and minimize losses is the most urgent problem for miners of all sizes.

Going to the sea is the way that miners have placed the greatest hope before, but after a period of exploration, the road to sea is not as smooth as expected, and some small miners are still trying to stay behind.

Will update more if I caught another alts.

I'm red tagging plagiarists from this point forward.

You shouldn't do that:

The system is for handling trade risk, not for flagging people for good/bad posts/personalities/ideas.

if I am banned, please delete my post:My first bitcoin shopping.I don't want to share this thing here anymore.

Mods won't do that, but you can wipe any post by yourself as long as you're not banned.

So what's happening is RainbowKun did some text spinning before posting and he seems to have combined multiple sources rather than plagiarizing an entire article.

When he posted dates and events in his (long) posts, I tried to find plagiarism (but couldn't find it). It makes sense he used different references for his long detailed posts.

[DdmrDdmr]

I’ve been wary of @RainbowKun for a while. There are some things that looked a bit off, and I did check for plagiarism quite a few times without rendering any results. Nevertheless, I still has the cross-language + spin possibility on a conceptual sticky note at the back of my mind.

There’s the fact that some of the OP type posts, present a vocabulary that is way more complex in construction than that used when replying to quoted fragments of other people’s posts. On a complete different scale at times.

I noticed a certain groupie effect on some of his threads (all included in OP’s list of suspects). My hypothesis is that they are all friends and such, working towards a common objective of creating a name on the forum, to launch his (Rainbow) DAO project shortly. The strategy is fine if playing by the book, but this thread is questioning whether the play is legit or foul (i.e. meriting alt accounts, or friend accounts for the sake of being friends and working towards a common goal), and whether content was partially built through intended cross-language + spinning techniques. @nutildah’s post above seems to exemplify the latter clearly in a sample case.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

Let's put an end to it and find a more concrete example... I spent about an hour. It's somebody else's turn.

There's no need to, IMO.  With that one post you hopefully ensured that he'll be banned for good, with no excuses this time.  Did you report that post to the mods, by any chance?

And people wonder why I'm so careful when meriting newbies, to the point where it seems like I'm biased against them.  Well, all of the evidence presented in this thread should serve as vindication of that cautiousness, because I've seen crap like this happen before.  

This is easy to fix - mods should start banning for plagiarism again.

Um....why are they not?  Is that not a thing anymore?

You shouldn't do that:

The system is for handling trade risk, not for flagging people for good/bad posts/personalities/ideas.

Eh, then Theymos can ban these idiots.  In the meantime, the community should take matters into their own hands, just like they do with scammers, which Theymos allows to thrive on bitcointalk.  Know what I mean?

But it's ridiculous, I don't know why I was involved in this incident.

Yes you do.  And even if you aren't involved in the alt account ring, you sure as hell plagiarized your way to some serious merit earnings, which you then used to merit multiple members of the ring, thereby contributing to it.  Hopefully a permaban will be forthcoming, and sooner rather than later.

Not really sure. At one point I saw accounts with 5+ reported plagiarized posts still hanging around so I just gave up on it. When it takes more effort to find and report plagiarism to get them banned than it does for the plagiarist to spin up (no pun intended) a new account to a revenue-earning level (signatures etc), the battle is lost. I don't think it was trivial for nutildah to find this translated copypasta and if that doesn't result in a ban then we'll know.

[LoyceV]

From my experience, my plagiarism topic isn't often checked by Mods to ban them. But if I report a plagiarising post directly, they're banned much quicker.

All accounts that I inform the moderators in your topic are always processed, and users are banned. But for this, I also send the report directly, with a link to the post.
But lately, some posts with obvious plagiarism have remained unprocessed. Although, if you compare all my reports to the accounts that I described above, they were banned instantly.
The moderators probably have a lot of work to do.

If the evidence in a report is very clear and easy to process then the mods do generally ban members for plagiarism on the spot, but if its the slightest bit complicated then it remains forever in the Unhandled bin.

Regardless of whether or not these accounts are copy/pasting 7 or more words in a row (the loosest definition of "plagiarism"), they are still taking the spirit of somebody else's work and claiming it as their own.

That's dishonest and certainly not trustworthy. They cheapen the forum for others who bother to come up with "original content", aka normal conversation like a normal human being.

My hypothesis is that they are all friends and such, working towards a common objective of creating a name on the forum, to launch his (Rainbow) DAO project shortly.

This makes sense as they are not in sig campaigns and haven't been applying AFAIK.


To the end of simplifying plagiarism accusations, let's see if this nudges any budges:

交易，真正的冷静来自于内心的平静，这种平静与对错无关，而是足够的相信自已，对的时候不浮躁，亏的时候不悲观，不断的自我修正，这更与感觉无关，当看到某个行情，就明白如何建仓，这就好比开车一样，踩刹车、打方向、看路面、盯前方，没有所谓的先后顺序，没有所谓的思考，而是一种本能反应，交易也是如何。

Google translation:

Trading, true calm comes from inner peace. This calm has nothing to do with right or wrong, but to believe in yourself enough, not impetuous when you are right, not pessimistic when you lose, and constant self-correction, which has nothing to do with feelings. When you see a certain market, you can understand how to open a position. This is like driving a car. There is no so-called order, no so-called thinking, but an instinctive reaction, and the transaction is also how it is. .

So this is a direct word-for-word, untranslated copy/paste which would definitely result in a ban if written in English.

I rarely posted in the thread and would report posts even when I did, so it's not about that. I don't mind reporting a few posts per user, since "I did it only once" was a very common excuse but I don't think it should take dozens of plagiarised posts to get a ban, or hundreds of spam posts to get a tempban, etc.

Makes me rethink my position towards trust ratings for forum rule violations, despite what "official" guidance might be. I really dislike this forum turning into affirmative action for spammers. If moderation doesn't cut it maybe an ignore system similar to trust system needs to be set up so that you can have posts hidden based on what users in your network consider low value garbage.

If the evidence in a report is very clear and easy to process then the mods do generally ban members for plagiarism on the spot, but if its the slightest bit complicated then it remains forever in the Unhandled bin.

I've had a lot of "Good" reports without bans so perhaps the posts got deleted for low value but deemed insufficient proof of plagiarism, not sure.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

Lol, after I posted this question to kxwhalexk, he locked the thread.  Well, actually it was after Kingsden's post, but still--it was his thread, and the title is asking for the community to "judge this matter".  I think he doesn't like how he's being judged and knows he's busted at this point.

Here are some more interesting cases. from the category of "random and it just coincided." I analyzed all posts RainbowKun. He has several distinct habits. When he starts to quote someone, he very often starts with the word YES. Or, at first, he thanks someone for something, and then writes his opinion.

I'd say that this is a pattern among a lot of members who don't speak English that well, but those "coincidences" are hard to ignore.  Yet more nails have been driven into his bitcointalk coffin.  Good catch, Ratimov.

When it takes more effort to find and report plagiarism to get them banned than it does for the plagiarist to spin up (no pun intended) a new account to a revenue-earning level (signatures etc), the battle is lost.

We shouldn't give up, no matter how much it might seem that the battle is lost.  It's discouraging, yes, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't be raining holy hell down on these account farmers and shitposters when possible.

Edit:

kxwhalexk is now banned BTW.

Sweet.  Thanks for that bit of intel, and glad you agree that the fight is worth it.

Hear hear.

BEHOLD THE POWER OF DECENTRALIZATION...

(plus mods)...

IN A NEW PARADIGM OF CIVILIZATION:

I'm naming it

BIT-CIVILIZATION.

LOL

Probably gonna get reported for plagiarism now.

Oh well, good work everybody. Let's do it again tomorrow.

And as promised I have removed my neg from kxwhalexk.

[suchmoon]

And as promised I have removed my neg from kxwhalexk.

Sweet. There is still some justice left in this shithole amazing melting pot of ideas.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

Take a look here:

Yes, I agree in the little by little...

The profuse thank-you's and similar posting style wouldn't have my radar up, but that part of his merit history is concerning.  Then again, I was duped into meriting some of them myself before they were sniffed out.  

I'll have to re-read the entirety of this thread, because off the top of my head I don't recall KingsDen being involved in the alt account ring.  Assuming he wasn't mentioned previously, I'd be interested to know if there's any evidence he was, because I've been giving him a pretty fair amount of merits.  He started this thread today, and it immediately struck me as a merit-grab attempt because there's no purpose to such a thread and it's not likely any of the Meta regulars would care about the suggestions he made, since they've been made before.

Sweet. There is still some justice left in this shithole amazing melting pot of ideas.

Well, he probably got reported by multiple members.  I know I reported him for plagiarism today or yesterday, and it'd be pretty hard for the mods to ignore such obvious proof of it even if they were inclined to do so, which I'm hoping they're not.

[stompix]

Oh yeah, the moment I saw that topic
Check out RainbowKun's article to see if forums really need depth knowledge.
I knew it, this is going to be another "the-devil" and his 50 merits popcorn-worthy drama.
The amount and intensity of own ass licking in that topic....damn..

I had interacted with him just a few times and mainly because he was clearly trying to spin something to make it longer while losing completely logic on the way but I had a really bad feeling about his topics and one of them was the striking weird number of newbies posting not the usual shitposting but still posts that we're definitely not meant as a conversation and probably were used also to bump his topics again to attract attention and more merit.

My only dilemma left is who spent more time in this, Ratimov with this research or Rainbow-sama and his followers with the copy-spin-paste.  

[KingsDen]

There’s the fact that some of the OP type posts, present a vocabulary that is way more complex in construction than that used when replying to quoted fragments of other people’s posts. On a complete different scale at times.

This is a genius discovery I must confess. If I have to dispute everything on this thread, not this one. Personally, @RainbowKun's articles appears complex to me, I do not actually read nor reply. But, one day I patiently went through two of his articles. I dropped a counter reply to what his article proposed, I was waiting for a technical or complex reply. But was disappointed when he replied in agreement with me despite that I opposed him. The second reply was just like "thank you for your reply, but what I am saying is..."seeming like an automated reply .

@Ratimov you dropped some screenshots showing the number of posts and activity to be same. How was that achieved, because activity delays 14days before reflecting, obviously posts should be greater than activities. And also how is it related in the investigations. Thank you!

[RainbowKun]

I have seen some of your questions about me here, please wait for the reply of my independent article.

[lovesmayfamilis]

Again, some kind of coincidence.

I support. Almost all the violas you presented also use lists similar to this design.

• Decentralized features, no need to rely on a third party, transaction Sudujia is fast
• As a representative of the blockchain, Bitcoin has a higher safety factor and more and more application scenarios.
• Cross-border transactions can effectively evade the SWIFT settlement system. As a sovereign country, it can avoid US economic sanctions and hegemony threats
• The key factor is lower transaction costs, and future transactions will be faster without waiting.

• The first stage is to eliminate panic, and good news is flying all over the sky, steadily rising, which may last for several months.
• In the second stage, there is panic and a sharp drop, which may be due to the overbought phenomenon in the first stage. At this stage, various technical indicators have failed and changed at will. You will find that there is no rule, and then the market will fluctuate. , No breakthrough.
• The mad cow is here. There is no reason to say that it has gone up wildly and ushered in a large amount of incremental funds. Bitcoin has entered the stage of dreams and emotions.

• The first type of person is obsessive-compulsive disorder, this kind of person is more obsessive, and their eyes can't wait to leave the market chart for 24 hours. Such people are often victims of the market, and one day they will obediently hand over their chips.
  
• The second type of people are those with extremely low psychological endurance. They are timid and easy to flee the market without faith when the price of Bitcoin plummets. On the contrary, those who cannot withstand the temptation, those who do not have principles and persistence in the process of rising, often miss the most beautiful rainbow.
  
• The third type is people who have no faith, just follow the trend, do not have their own analytical and judgment ability, let alone emotional intelligence, long-term possession is impossible for them, and it is vacillating. If you don't have this determination, please leave Bitcoin.
  

 At first, I was somewhat surprised that many newbies appeared who use this. But later, if you pay attention to their transfer of merits, the same accounts always appear.
Just as an extra "coincidence"

[Jazmin Leslie]

Hello, Mr. Ratimov,
I just saw your post,I saw my name in this thread with a lot of text, a lot of screenshots, and a lot of data.

I want to temporarily suppress my own anger, Although I know that this is bad for my health,If I vent my anger in your thread like you, I will definitely be able to vent, but I think at least you are in this forum. It is a person worthy of my respect, but your words above are too gaffe, at least you have always given me the impression that you are calm and unselfish helping others, and I even doubt whether you have been hacked.

I saw my name in your thread, I don't understand, I have to figure it out, I saw that you said in the above content that it may be because of Merit, below I will post my Merit screenshots, everyone will come over take a look

Mainly because I didn't see any problems by myself,Is it because Mr. Kun gave me merit?But I checked the post that day, and anyone who responded there was given the merits.See screenshot:



Seeing the advantages gained here, even if you don’t, I think you still admire people with writing ability,Everyone is reading the article carefully,Only you will pay attention to whom Rainbow Kun gave me a Merit, which is very boring! I really can't think of any reason for him to have a huge army.
Now let’s not talk about the merits that Mr. Kun gave to others,Let’s talk about the merits he got,The merits he got should be the merits given by many predecessors,I believe you are familiar with the names inside, and I especially hate you for using " The term "cheating" is used to insult others because it is too arbitrary.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;u=2852519
Every Merit I give is carrying value. I think the replies can help me and make me feel valuable,I will naturally give me feedback, The Merit I receive is also the same. Don’t you think so? ?

Are you giving Merit with your eyes closed?
If you think it is valuable, you give it to Merit. If you think it is worthless, you don't give it.
The ones who gave me Merit are Welsh DdmrDdmr OgNasty lovesmayfamilis Pmalek fillippone. These people are the predecessors of the forum and are worthy of my respect. They give Merit to me. I believe it must be done out of inner approval. Then you say Where does the deception come from?

Conclusions

Also, the cheater sometimes likes to communicate with himself and mention his accounts. In the history of his posts, you can see the citation of responses from his own accounts. It's funny.

I see that you treat Kaggie and KingsDen as suspect accounts,Are your heads caught in the door? Those are two of the best newcomers,I hope your eyes and brains are in place soon.
I think you should pay more attention to the content. Merit is an expression of excellent content.
Finally, I want to say to you loudly, please put your ears up, I was drawn to your farm in a muddle, I want to sue you, just on the forum, you must apologize to me, you have violated me Your reputation, you have lost my previous admiration for you, you must apologize to me, you must apologize to me!



By the way, I saw HaleyOccam on your list, he also gave it to me, but others also gave it to me the same day, the kind-hearted brother fillippone and the kind-hearted aoluain brother also supported me, I will release the screenshot below for you Open your eyes and see clearly, am I posting valuable content on the forum,

I don't think you are a content-oriented person. I feel that you rarely read other people's articles. I feel that you are addicted to self-appreciation.



Please immediately, immediately, remove my name from your list.
