BotBasher is still here. Still free. Still bashing bots

With the emergence of Biomapper c1, it is easy to forget about another one of Humanode’s champions of Sybil-resistance, BotBasher.

For those new to BotBasher, BotBasher is a tool provided by Humanode that enables Sybil-resistance on both Discord and Telegram.  It is not only free to use, but it can save the servers and users from headaches of having to fight bots, scammers, and spammers.

So, what does BotBasher do?  The answer is simple.  It asks the user to go through a cryptographically secure bioauthentication, a face scan, and tie their biometrics to one user account.  Although people can be two-faced, physically speaking, one human = one physical face is the rule of thumb.  Once you tie your face to a Discord or Telegram account, that account is tied to your biometrics, and the same user will not be able to tie their face to another account; until, that is, the server reset that happens every 6 months, when all encrypted biometric data in the server is wiped clean.

The servers, in turn, can set up Sybil-resistant servers, or channels, only allowing users who have proven that they are unique human beings to enter.

Sure, a user can still try to scam or spam in a Sybil-resistant server, but if they get booted from the server, they won’t be able to just delete that account, re-create one, and hop back in to scam or spam more.  (Well, at least until the server reset every 6 months.  For information about the server reset and why we do it, check this article out. Different product, same reason.)

So, do you want to create a chat that is not filled with bots or multi-accounts?  Tired of Sybil attacks?  Want to do Sybil-resistant airdrops or whitelisting?  Interested in Sybil-resistant community gatherings, lectures, and AMA’s?  Interested in learning how many users your server or project actually has?
