Got slapped with a "temporary tag" again—now I'm shadowbanned for 7 to 20 days under observation. WTF. I'm a brand-new legit account, only posting tech tweets, and they still limit my reach. Seriously, what the hell.

x is now full of hot spots. I just added two more hashtags, and they gave me a temporary tag again—damn.

Although Xcode is among the top 3 for visualization in the IDE, after this packaging process, I think its toolchain is more complex than Android’s command line, and its usability is too low.

Why is the Coinbase hack getting so little attention? I scrolled through my timeline for ages and saw nothing. Besides proving X's timeline is getting worse, it seems Web3 security incidents are fading from people's radar.

3/ How to spot bot-style content farms on X 🤖

3. Automated or outsourced bot accounts
Posting random lifestyle pics + investment quotes every day.
Behind the scenes: AI-generated or team-run content farms.

Why?

- Grow and sell accounts
- Build trust before shilling
- Funnel users to scam networks

You’ll notice repeated phrases, stock photos, zero real interaction.

2/ How to spot scam/bait accounts (pig butchering style) 🐷

2. Scam bait accounts
They look like rich investors but they’re fishing for victims.
Pattern:

- Like your post
- DM to chat about investing or dating
- Invite you to some “exclusive platform”

Once they mention “guaranteed returns” or “let me trade for you” — block and move on.

1/ How to spot marketing accounts on X 🧵

You’ll see accounts posting ski trips, nice food, charts of Bitcoin going up and down.

A lot of them fall into 3 categories 👇

1. Personal-brand marketing accounts
Lifestyle + finance = trust bait.
Goal: sell courses, grow Telegram groups, promote low-cap tokens.

Posts look polished, tone sounds smart, and they reply a lot to build trust.

4/4 I look forward to sharing more work with everyone. My articles mainly cover Web3 technical knowledge, dev logs, experience sharing, and indie game dev logs I’m currently preparing.

3/4 I prioritize publishing long posts on Paragraph first and sync regularly to Substack and Medium depending on my schedule.

I’ve tried several third-party cross-posting tools, but often have to adjust article styles and am not fully satisfied.

2/4 which takes up about 90% of my writing time.

I sync short posts or tweets on X and Bluesky. Longer articles I publish on Paragraph, Substack, and Medium. As a Web3 tech practitioner, I’m also a deep user of Web3 products.

1/4 As a Web3 developer, I have many daily development tasks. Maintaining social media accounts is also part of my work. Currently, I spend 4–6 hours per week on writing, including research, organizing, processing, and drafting,
