Why is this even allowed? Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure there’s paid shilling for many coins and tokens (remember CRO last fall/winter?), but I don’t think it’s as obvious for any other one as it is for BAT.
I don’t want to call any specific person out as I guess that’s against forum category rules, but there are accounts doing almost nothing else but shill BAT, using the same phrases over and over again (why do they keep repeating they are “forever bullish” on it, who talks like that?). It also seems to me those posts usually get a handful of upvotes very quickly for visibility.
BAT is pretty much just like Moons for the users of an obscure, forum category-par browser. Their only functionality is tipping, and noone uses it for that. It just doesn’t make sense for any super-fans of that specific token to exist.
