Today, the social media circle exploded—multiple bloggers leaked that a major platform suddenly launched a large-scale account banning wave.
This move came unexpectedly. In the crypto community, accounts dedicated to content distribution, bulk-operated matrix accounts, and various reposting and copying accounts have become the primary targets of this crackdown. Many people woke up this morning to find their accounts gone, and they couldn't even find the appeal entry point.
Some speculate that the platform is cleaning up operations in the gray areas, while others think it might be related to recent policy tightening. In short, the gameplay that relies on walking the edge of platform rules has taken a big hit this time.

It was about time to regulate this. Those spam accounts are really annoying as hell.
This ban was well done. Purifying the ecosystem is a good thing.
Holy shit, here we go again? It seems like every month a platform is clearing accounts.
Gray-area operations deserve it, but I worry that genuinely good accounts might also get caught in the crossfire.
Honestly, those on the edge of the rules are bound to get caught sooner or later.
When platforms suddenly get tough, it feels like the entire community is shaking.
A large number of matrix accounts have been wiped out; the industry needs a reshuffle.
This is probably the result of gambling with luck.
But we also need to see clearly who is truly being targeted.

Here it comes again, there's really nowhere to hide now.
A large number of transfer accounts have been shut down, deservedly so.
The platform finally learned its lesson; it was long overdue for this.
Matrix accounts are doomed. I just want to see who still dares to play tricks.
This cleanup was ruthless; unconventional methods should indeed be phased out.
Basically, accounts that cheat for traffic have no future.
No appeal entry? That's too harsh.
Is it true? Those skirting the rules are really done this time.

Oh no, another round of cleaning... Should have known not to indulge in that bit of traffic.
Reshipping accounts die the fastest, that's common sense.
Matrix players collectively get caught, serves them right.
Policies tighten and loosen, we have to follow and get cut.
There's really no room for negotiation this time, just mute and be done.
It's all because of those borderline gameplay tactics, now everything's over.
The platform is really ruthless, not even an explanation given.
Should have cleaned up these fake accounts long ago, honestly.
Accounts wiped overnight, flooding the entire community.
Rules are meant to be used against people, that's how we've always operated.

Oops, this time I messed up. Even marginal plays are going to be penalized.
The banning wave came too quickly, I couldn't react in time.
It seems the platform has long been unhappy with this kind of operation; it's only a matter of time.
A batch of matrix accounts has been banned; even mirror accounts won't survive.
Honestly, this cleanup should have come earlier.
Ah, is my small account also in danger…
Walking the edge of the rules has this result. Serves me right.

That's better, to prevent some people from plagiarizing others' content or using fake accounts to drive traffic.

Haha, I knew it would turn out like this. Playing with fire always burns yourself.
Aren't they just those reposting accounts? Serves them right.
Matrix accounts went to zero overnight, hilarious.
Now you know what "rules" mean, right?
The wave of account bans is really outrageous; my friends' circles are all blown up.
Surviving on the margins, sooner or later you'll get cleared out.
This platform's move is pretty harsh; no appeals at all?
Forget it, I still have to go through official channels. Cheating and cutthroat tactics won't last long.
This is truly the moment of reshuffling.

I've been annoyed with these matrix accounts for a long time, and they've finally been cleaned up.
Relying on reposting to make a living is not sustainable, and now there's another round of major cleanup. This time, the rules are really changing.
That's why you need to stay low-key. Being too arrogant will eventually cause problems.
Three of my friend's accounts were gone overnight, and they couldn't even find the appeal portal.
The gray areas will eventually be addressed, I just didn't expect it to happen so soon.
The platform is starting to get serious, we need to change our strategy, buddy.

It was about time to clean it up. These reposting accounts are basically tumors.
Matrix accounts gone overnight? Serves them right, it should be like this.
Wow, the era of walking the edge of the rules is coming to an end.
No way, no even a complaint? That’s a really ruthless move.
Good cleaning, finally someone took action.
I knew the platform would act sooner or later, and here it is.
Reposting accounts die, high-quality creators thrive. Fair enough.
I support this move; get rid of all the trash accounts.
Oh my, so many accounts banned overnight. It’s a bit like witch-hunting.
What’s meant to come will come. Let’s watch and see.

Damn, another wave of pulling the rug? The repost account deserved to be shut down
The platform will be cleaned up sooner or later, it just depends on who can run faster
Now the matrix accounts are probably crying, haha
Just watch and see as we go, anyway compliant accounts won't die
They ban all kinds of messy stuff, no wonder they're justified

Haha, if I had known earlier, I wouldn't have been so greedy. The matrix accounts are bound to get banned eventually.
In just one night, dozens of accounts disappeared. This move was really ruthless.
I was just saying to stay on the edge of the rules and not get too excited. Now look at the situation.
It's time for the搬运党s to wake up; the platform isn't your backyard.
This means the crypto circle will be quiet for a few days. LOL.
But seriously, is there no appeal channel? Not even a feedback option?
Account bans are happening way too fast, faster than my finger can like.
I've long been annoyed by the routines of those matrix operators.
So the policy tightening was real and pretty hardcore.
Looks like I need to change my strategy. Operating with single accounts might be safer?
A few of my accounts are also confused, not sure what's going on.
Feels like a signal that things will get even stricter later on.
Damn, I have to rebuild my accounts again. I'm breaking apart.
