How Did an Online Crypto Casino Take Over Twitter?
Briefly

Since Elon Musk's acquisition of X (formerly Twitter), the platform has deteriorated into a space increasingly dominated by ads and bots, particularly pushing gambling promotions for Stake, an online casino app. Originally thriving on various user-generated content, X now sees popular meme accounts pushing Stake ads, often violating the platform's own content guidelines against such promotions. Stake, illegal in the U.S. but operating globally, seems to capitalize on the chaos, deploying a vast number of ads and potentially affecting the quality of user experience to attract more users.
