The REAL COMMUNITY POLL: Bitcoin Cash 85% - Litecoin 15%

It doesn't need too much intelligence to figure out polls on Twitter are all rigged.

In case some don't know it already, there are millions of Twitter-bot accounts dedicated to spam certain messages. Thousands of internet users get paid (or think they will) if they signup for the so-called PTC (Paid To Click) and proceed with liking and following comments on social media.

Twitter is not a transparent network and has no legitimate use case to run polls. There is no validity even for the entity that runs a poll to verify the legitimacy of votes. And frankly, when this has to do with comparing communities (as with the case of Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash) it is always going to be rigged.

Twitter is a flawed concept on its own, censoring opinions and blocking accounts just because they don’t fit some kind of narrative it has. But this is another issue. The part here is the nonsense voting polls between Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash that were completely manipulated and far too many took them seriously.

I voted too, although I knew the outcome beforehand since there wasn’t going to be any genuine voting. Bots and spammers voted for Litecoin. This is what happened.

The REAL Stats are: BCH 85% - LTC 15%

First of all the results:

Source: Twitter

(I remember voting in this and had a ticker next to Bitcoin Cash, it seems this ticker is gone now. Is it gone for everyone else?)

(Bitplaza also seems it follows me. Not going to support it though, unless it adds Bitcoin Cash.)

3931 voted, and that tweet had a mere 376 likes, and 273 retweets (in total).

1147 votes were for Bitcoin Cash and

2783 votes went for Litecoin.

The Litecoin votes were seriously manipulated.

Most of those who voted for Litecoin are accounts that never post on Twitter but only use it for “earning” purposes (bounty payment or PTC).

And these are approximately 2500 fake bot-votes that went for Litecoin.

Sadly, this is something we can’t prove. But since this is about voting, Twitter has no organized approach to counter vote-manipulation. And what proves this is the comments in the same Tweet poll, where just about 20 comments sympathetic to Litecoin were published.

We don’t know all that voted since this is not a transparent vote. Anyone with 10 accounts can vote 10 times. But this is not the case, this is a case of 2500 bot votes upvoting Litecoin.

What would have happened if Bitcoin Cash was reaching closer, was another 2-3 thousand Litecoin votes would suddenly appear in just minutes. The same happened with plenty of other fake Twitter polls. Someone buys and if they see their vote is about to fail, they then buy more. There is nothing organic there.

This poll had, from the beginning, almost 2000 votes for Litecoin. It is a rigged poll just like 90% of Twitter is. Fake and inorganic followers, comments, and likes.

I wrote this at the start of the poll, Litecoin already had about a thousand votes more. If you look at the comments it is obvious that BCH won this poll. The comments favoring Litecoin were just a few, while BCH had overwhelming support. Meanwhile, even Nano and Dash supporters were spamming the poll and their comments were more than Litecoin's.

A total fake and rigged poll that does not represent any popular opinion.

Bitplaza did this for publicity reasons but should have canceled this parody and just select it according to comments. BCH had real people voting once, Litecoin had a few dozens of real votes and the rest were bot accounts and paid PTC noobs that have not even heard what Litecoin was.

The above is not proof, but something worth considering, since $1 million can buy millions of fake likes, followers, retweets, and shills for months. And of course rig and manipulate any kind of voting polls.

The REAL Stats are: BCH 85% - LTC 15%

So, by now you are wondering where I came up with the 85% BCH - 15% LTC stats.

The proof is the fact that that Bistroo adopted both Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin for payments, but the Litecoin Community didn't seem to care about it. There weren't hundreds of likes on this "good news" as anyone would be expecting. However, the Bitcoin Cash community embraced this good news with an organic number of likes.

This is the real poll:

Both Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash were announced by Bistroo with one day difference. There was no fake poll and no fake popularity contest. What happened was what every sane person would have expected.

Both screenshots are taken at the exact same time.

This is the real poll between Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash.

168 likes for Bitcoin Cash - Just 28 likes for Litecoin

The community that matters most is undeniably Bitcoin Cash.

85% of total likes went for Bitcoin Cash and a mere 15% liked Litecoin.

Let me repeat and let that sink in.

  • 85% were the Bitcoin Cash votes

  • 15% were the Litcoin votes.

Some suggested that Bitcoin Cash haters (including BTC maximalists) upvoted Litecoin in the Bitplaza poll. This is not what happened, though.

The outrageous manipulation in the Twitter poll conducted by Bitplaza was a result of inorganic votes. It wasn't real Twitter users, but someone utilizing (probably paying for) an army of thousands of multiple accounts.

A week later the reality of the difference between the two communities is clear.

There was another poll before this one, by Bitplaza again, that Dogecoin won hands down. I'm not referring to that one, though.

Dogecoin has amassed various sheep Robinhood investors that never used or will never use cryptocurrency in their lives. It barely ever had a community and what is now considered a Doge community is just a meme by itself.

This is just Musk and his abuse of influencing power that "pumps" the price acting like a paid shill, while at the same time damaging his image. Eventually, Doge will have no future and whatever price it achieves will only be met with a 99% downfall when trouble in the market begins.

So much for a thrill.

Anyone still thinking these polls matter and hold any trace of legitimacy? It is all fake just as Twitter is.

The numbers could have changed, and the vote on Litecoin would still suddenly receive another 5k votes.

The guys that own these operations can manipulate any untrustworthy platform like Twitter. They are making millions by rigging campaigns and get paid heftily by advertisers for that.

Twitter doesn’t care. It may block a million accounts one day, ten million more will pop the next one, and with an automated process, they begin building up followership.

This is a FAKE vote and while some may suspect so, the overwhelming majority still does not understand how the internet works. I tried to warn and explain, but there had been plenty thinking this could send a message of some sort.

I was following Litecoin and its various communities on social media for years. They are all dead communities now and LTC only recovered for a while in 2019 with Litecoin’s halving. It has nothing to do with Bitcoin Cash that is a hundred times ahead in technology and community terms.

I don't have enough knowledge about these currency. Not enough to understand the flow of this. But as I read your article I gain new idea regarding crypto currency. And happy to know that and wanting to have more BTC.

I always liked Litecoin, until I started to dive into the world of BCH. Actually bitcoin Cash has a pretty big and loyal community, unfortunately not everyone likes this. Trying to discredit it in a grotesque way. Very good publication @Pantera

Have been seeing litecoin pumping up, but I don't think many people are actually using it more than Bitcoin Cash.

The way you calculatively articulate your words gives me goosebumps all over. I'm always eager to read your post because you align your claims with solid/factual evidence. You are a book of great content.

I'm delighted to know a thing or two about the crypto market through you. Prior to when I started reading your amazing contents, I knew close to nothing about the crypto business. Today, you took the time to do justice to the harm caused to BCH.

As I read, I felt the stench of disgust emitting from your tone due to the injustice carried out. This goes to show not just your wonderful personality but your just and fair attitude towards affairs that serves the interest of many. Thank you for feeding us—your readers with your extensive research. It is a blast, boss.

Bruh you're right on point spitting fact like no one can do here

Once i found a place from where i came to know how they actually buy votes like they'll pay some bucks and than peoples who created their account to make money will just do their task to get money without knowing what post really means so this is easiest way to win votes

That's why i also believe BCH community and votes are legit and fear but who cares they will listen what bots will be in favour

The BCH votes were all legit. This because I read hundreds of comments at noise.cash in support of BCH and explaining they voted. The comments below the tweet also paint the same picture. I don't condone any attempt to manipulate votes but I feel we should express our frustration to any similar Twitter fake voting polls that will apply in the future.

Exactly it's cleared seeing comments and what peoples say or they tell reason why they're voting in favour of BCH so doesn't make sense to doubt about votes in favour of BCH but meanwhile i see zero logic why and where these peoples are who choose LTC and yes I'm with you but it will happen every time there's no way to stop this on going shit on twitter

From inception I knew the vote was rigged. It was Bitcoincash against bitcoin and other coins. It's impossible for Litecoin to gather that much votes. The perfect evidence is the engagement on each coins announcement made by bistroo which you shared. I also had issues with that user calling bitcoincash Bcash. He is disguising, he's no lover of LTC, just a BTC Maxist parading around. Twitter is control by a bias group so i'm not shocked polls like this can be rigged.

Yeah exactly the real winner is Bitcoincash, because there are lots of people on noisecash who's are from Pakistan and we know very well in our country Bitcoincash is trending instead of Litecoin and same here in other countries. It's just Bitcoincash that helping the people of every field a lot through the best blogging platforms 💚

The polls on Twitter have no value and are pure manipulation. Not only in this topic of cryptocurrencies, if not in any topic. For example, here in political affairs the number of bot farms that are functioning and capable of driving trends is overwhelming. We shouldn't allow ourselves to be manipulated by trends and results on Twitter. However, sadly most believe in these false data.

Twitter has no right to conduct a poll anyway. How can we count the fairness of the voting process? There is simply no way. It extends into the likes and followership as well.
