Hi guys, i got this idea from Stephane, but basically can we brainstorm to find ways to find people selling NFTs back and forth and also buying them for prices that are suspicious?

For example, during R& rewards program, we saw transactions like:

You can see that the NFTS are just being sold back and forth by the same wallets, generating volume which can get them rewards moneys.

I look to u algorand forum, can we help brainstorm:

  • Ways to help marketplaces like R& identify these transactions
  • Ways to not include sales that are clearly manipulated (liek buying NFT thats for sale for 150 ALGO for 20,000 ALGO for no apparent reason)

Im not a coder, but perhaps something related to wordpress or chrome plugins could help? let me know your thougts!

Thank you for your message. I believe we have already addressed your concerns on multiple occasions. The best way to help is to notify us on Discord. Other members of the community continue to alert us of suspicious trades on our Discord (e.g. the 20k sale) which is where we’re monitoring communications with regards to NFT rewards and are best placed to take action. We encourage the community to continue doing so.

Thank you @ross !!! Is your way to handle suspcicious trades to rely on people notifying you on Discord? Askin cause there’s been multiple “suspicious” sales as you say in the past and it seems like if it doesnt get said on discord they remain in the board.

also, do u think some wordpress plugins could help here? maybe theres some out there that might handle this

That’s the best way to let us know. We also monitor internally. If you find any useful wordpress plugins let us know!

Yo, OG6 here - I was trading Tucan Tribes & just sweeping & relisting floor birds because of the secondary incentive for BPM tokens, a lot of other active NFT traders were also doing the same. Wasn’t intentionally trying to trade the same NFT asset, accidents happen with active floors & secondary incentives though.
