Dogecoin co-creator assumes that Twitter has begun solving the problem of crypto spam bots
Billy Marcus, the IT engineer who created Dogecoin with Jackson Palmer as a joke on bitcoin back in 2013, once again took to Twitter to draw public attention to the problem of crypto bots.

“I wonder if Twitter really did anything about spambots”

Elon Musk pulls out of Twitter deal because of bots

Shareholders of Twitter at the time.
Twitter persuaded its shareholders to agree to the deal after inviting Musk to join the board of the company. However, Elon first rejected the offer to sit on the board and then rejected the deal itself, opting to withdraw from it.
He said Twitter did not provide accurate data on the percentage of bots among Twitter users, assuming the former accounts for the majority.
However, Musk has been constantly tagging Twitter CEO Agrawal asking him to solve this problem.
