What’s new? The head of Tesla, Elon Musk, posted a screenshot of comments to his posts on the social network Twitter. The entrepreneur has complained that 90% of the comments were written by bots, among which one can see messages from fake accounts of the head of cryptocurrency exchange Binance Changpeng Zhao, calling to follow links on YouTube.

Who commented on the post? Musk’s post was also commented on by the real CEO of Binance, who agreed with the presence of numerous bots and said that his tweet was the only real one. Another comment was posted by the official Binance account. In it, the team jokingly wrote that they had seen enough of their boss and asked the Twitter management to solve the problem with the bots and make sure that they do not have to see him 99 times more often every day.
What events preceded it? In early May, Musk raised $7,1 billion to buy Twitter. Binance also participated and allocated $500 million, but the $44 billion deal never occurred. Lawyers for Twitter subpoenaed representatives of Binance to testify about the failed purchase.
According to Musk, he decided to refuse because Twitter did not provide him with information about the number of spam and bots on the platform. Representatives of the social network said that this was a pretext for the rejection and sued to force Musk to complete the deal. The first hearing was set for October 17.
In August, Zhao warned that there were 7000 fraudulent profiles on LinkedIn, whose owners pose as employees of his crypto exchange. Zhao added that only about 50 pages on LinkedIn belong to his real colleagues.
