Crypto expert warns against manipulating Tapswap
Corroborating Dr Crypto's warning, crypto expert, Obani Ebenezer Nwokoma, explained to Legit.ng that the same thing happened with Notcoin, where they figured out people tried to outsmart the system.
"Well, the exact same thing happened in Notcoin exact replica, and after this, many accounts were counted as not eligible for using a biased method of generating Tapswaps, and if some of your referrals are engaged in such acts, your Tapswap will be deducted.
"People will always find a way to manipulate the system to earn unfairly. They're trying to make the earnings fair, especially if you're making a genuine effort to earn by doing taps and referral tasks."
Speaking further, he lamented:
"There is an in-app recommendation not in Tapswap, but people go to the extent of using external devices and installing extra bots aside from what is recommended to help. They mine outrageous amounts and most of their targets and people with unrealistic amounts within a short period of time."
