#CZ urges Elon Musk to ban bots on the X social media platform

Bots continue to be an issue for X users within the cryptosphere as they battle spam, impersonation accounts, and phishing links.

Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) urged Elon Musk to ban bots — automated accounts that spam the social media site and are used to amplify content or for coordinated attacks — from the X platform.

“If someone uses Grok, ChatGPT, or DeepSeek to generate a tweet and copy and paste it here, fine, but API posting should be disabled,” CZ wrote in a March 9 X post.

In a separate comment, the Binance founder differentiated automated social media bots from AI agents, saying that the latter was helpful in real-world applications such as booking hotels or writing code without having to socialize with them.
