Ju said that while the algorithm attempts to curb high-volume, low-quality content, it inadvertently limits real users as well.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1180\" data-end=\"1477\">Ju wrote on social media:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"1180\" data-end=\"1477\">\u201cAs AI advances, bots are inevitable. Kaito shares some blame, but X\u2019s failure to distinguish bots from humans is the real problem. The verified paywall failed, and bots now pay to spam.

The answer to \u201cWhy aren\u2019t crypto posts showing up?\u201d lies in the algorithms limiting real users while combating low-quality content.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2771\" data-end=\"2847\"><i>You can also freely share your thoughts and comments about the topic in the comment section.
