i was thinking about how ZapAdd (nprofile…llqc) works and how spammers may game it. 🤨
someone can create a lot of npubs and set ln address for them. also, publishing a kind 1 per day.
based on my understanding of zapadd mechanism, there is a chance for those accounts to get selected randomly or by keyword (less chance, but still possible).
after some round of zapvertising, all zapped sats to those accounts are collected by a spammer.
also, sometimes we may lose sats by zapping very famous people like jack (nprofile…jsen) which won't help us, probably.
the solution in my mind (cc RayBuni (nprofile…ndc3)) is to use Vertex (nprofile…prv3) data and make sure we zap people who have for example a wot rate between 0.4 to 0.8. so we don't zap famous people and spammers.
