First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they send you thousands of scammy airdrop messages.

I just found this out recently, but @xmtp actually has a direct lineage from Whisper, the original messaging component proposed in the original Web3 writeup. Fun to see spammers catching on. I'm still rooting for it though 🎉

This is pretty unfair. Spam is STILL a massive issue on email and one that's only really been solved by massively centralizing the spam filters and making them proprietary Where Wallet messaging protocols (Like XMTP) are better is really on the fact that it's tied to a key pair making encryption OOTB possible

The naive solution is to charge money and we’re starting to see people build around that idea But @vitalik.eth already wrote about why that model on its own won’t work either.

if the spammers care enough to try, it means you're onto something a lot of folks are now working on various spam controls at the protocol, middleware, and client levels this will move fast towards good solutions

Since there are multiple clients receiving XMTP I get multiple notifications for each spam message. 🤦‍♂️ I need to disable those notifications

Relieved I'm not the only one dealing with this. So annoying.

Seems like this could be solved with display filters for addresses with bidirectional message history, or nonzero balances
