Example of how network graph visualization can be used to identify platform manipulation..

This is @karbonbased’s Warpcast social graph 

(Note how densely nodes are connected in red section)

Out of @karbonbased's 5,854 Followers (at time of data collection), 5,198 (i.e. 89%) have FIDs greater than 200K.. meaning they are recently created accounts

(Note the overlap with red section from prior cast)

I like running, poker and oysters | Founder, Social Forensics (SocialForensics.com) | Berkeley & UPenn | Learning to listen

Examples of accounts from the red section include: @buzzedaldrin @nullspace @cannoli @muji

Bro seems like you need 1 $degen lmfaoooo

I feel like you are trying to prove something that you aren’t actually proving, but I’m not sure because you aren’t be direct in stating what you are trying to prove specifically. How does this prove manipulation and how can others peer-review your method used here?

What tools did you use to collect this data? Would love to tinker around with this too
