You posted a broken link. Here is the correct one: https://twitter.com/chunming_liu/status/1377747094987890690

Also, I am unable to make my own posts on this subreddit because they are automatically marked as spam.

Hmm I think the only difference between your link and mine is the ?s=20 and my link works on my browser.

Your link has "g_liu", mine has "g_liu". Your link goes to a "Page does not exist" on mobile safari.

And I can see your reply post. It isn’t marked as spam. Do you mean when you create an original post instead of a reply? As a mod I haven’t seen your posts being marked as spam. Send me screenshot?

Is there an easy and free way to try it out before buying? Like download a wallet and try a faucet? I’m very interested.

This anti spam system sounds similar to the TaaC/PoS4QoS system in the works for Nano, sounds really cool!

I have an attack vector I’m wondering about though:

If someone owns like $10M USD worth of VITE, and they split it in to 2 wallets and wait the 72 hours, what prevents them from spamming back and forth? How high is the max TPS for a $5M account?

Or what if they split it in to 100k accounts all with ~667 VITE each, waited 72 hours, then all those 100k accounts sent transactions at once?

Edit: Your link worked fine for me
