Today, Twitter manually and wrongfully suspended the account of my company, g8keep.

If this was just a personal account, I really wouldn't care as much. But, g8keep is a pre-seed venture backed company. We have employees. We have salaries and benefits to pay. g8keep is a full time job for everyone on the team.

The unfortunate thing is, Twitter is quite literally one of the main distribution and marketing platforms in our industry. This was the platform that we used to build our business since day 1. I don't like that this is the case, but in the crypto industry, quite literally everyone is on Twitter.

Until now, I didn't really see the negative effects of censorship on social media platforms. That is, until it happened to me and my company. 

Without any notice, and without any non-automated responses, they were able to essentially delete our company's presence from their platform.

This is a pretty eye opening moment for me to start prioritizing this platform.

what is @g8keep (g8.xyz)?

g8keep is a launchpad on base (& abstract) that we've been working on for the last 10 months

What separates g8keep apart from most launchpads are the launch mechanics. g8keep is built to give truly fair access to traders, and long term rewards to creators.

On g8keep, we protect tokens at the protocol level for the first 15 minutes. This is to mitigate snipers, bundlers, and early rug pulls. This can't be circumvented by using multiple wallets, similar to other attempts people have made to combat sniping.

The easiest way to explain our protection is:

if you buy too many tokens too fast, you receive fewer tokens, and pay for them at a higher than current market cap.

In addition to this, if you create a token that migrates, you receive:

- 0.01 ETH reward
- .4% of trading fees forever

On g8keep, you can earn revenue from a token without having to do a single buy/sell & impacting the chart. We promote healthy long lasting tokens that don't require the creator to snipe it themself.

Wow sorry to hear. Stories like this are one of the primary reasons I’m choosing to spend my time on farcaster. 

Can you tell us a little about g8keep, now that you’ve got our attention? :)

not trying to kill the vibe but g8keep only rings a bell because this didn’t go well https://warpcast.com/g8clank/0xdc9074fd

Welcome back! Happy to see more ppl & companies expand past x, really lousy circumstances though. I hope u can get that sorted out while establishing ur brand presence here. U should def get an ENS for your FC acct 

Question tho, are you @g8clank ? Should prob clear this up

FOR THE COLLABORATION OF G8KEEP AND CLANKER

we are not g8clank. for days leading up to our launch with clanker people created a few tokens on their platform and our platform with the name trying to capitalize.

same thing happened on both versions of our release on base and abstract. 

people made tokens named g8/g8keep to try and capitalize. we don’t restrict token names and this is unfortunately what can happen. we posted a chart to show the snipe protected launch chart as we have in the past for tokens and followed up after to clarify that it’s not our token. 

we have categorically stated on twitter and telegram that we do not have a token nor will we. 

we like to exemplify how our launch mechanics work, and the goal isn’t to specifically promote the token shown. this is why since this, we don’t show the name of the token when showing early launch charts. 

i do really apologize for the confusion here and anyone that purchased the token with expectations that it was tied to us.

not trying to kill the vibe but g8keep only rings a bell because this didn’t go well

I started using Farcaster almost exclusively after my first Twitter account was suspended more than a year ago.

Now I maintain a minimal presence there, trying not to do anything that would load to its arbitrary suspension, while focusing on building a more meaningful presence here.

Welcome to the purple app.

This happened to us too, and it killed the momentum we were building for the launch of our first mini-game next week.
