There appears to be an issue on Primal where posts get a ton of fake replies. (Notes show many replies that are not there)

Only seems to be an issue on nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg

Don’t see this on Damus or Nostur

Open Source or GTFO

A shitcoiner becoming president makes sense given the current state of American politics

The bots have found Nostr

For sure. Reducing maximum friction. What an exciting time to be a Bitcoiner

Seems like everywhere I turn there’s a new exciting project being built on Bitcoin. We are gonna win ⭐️

I have been chasing this story since October 2023.

I spoke to sources in Gaza whose Binance accounts had been frozen – The addresses they provided were not listed in Israel's official seizure orders.

I was then put in touch with Turkish and Saudi Arabian nationals whose Binance accounts were frozen, who were allegedly told to contact Israeli police.

The claim that Binance is freezing all Palestinian accounts, to my knowledge, is not correct. And this is what kept the story from being published.

Palestinians in the Westbank appear to be unaffected, while Palestinians in the Gaza Strip were only affected so long they had a certain balance in their account. But we couldn't figure out what that threshold was, as communication into Gaza was effectively cut off.

So I reached out to other news outlets hoping that I'd get help investigating the story. I reached out to CoinDesk editor in chief Kevin Reynolds, both via email and on the personal phone number he gave me – and got ghosted.

I reached out to Forbes, who were initially interested in the story, but Forbes refused to let me publish under my pseudonym.

Just recently I reached out to Bennet Tomlin

and Cas Piancey of Protos and got ghosted there too.

In November 2023, a journalist from Reuters contacted my source to write about the account seizures, but dropped the story as well.

Binance owes us an explanation under what legal framework it seizes the accounts of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip not listed in official seizure orders, and under what legal framework it seizes the accounts of foreign nationals on behalf of the Israeli government.
