On April 13, 2024, the jannies of 4cuck have announced one of the worst changes to have ever happened to the website, mandated email verification in order to use /biz/. Their supposed reasoning is to stop the shills on /biz/, as spending all day cleaning up shitcoin scams was just too hard of work for the poor [[jannies]]. However, this reasoning is complete bullshit, as just a few weeks prior 4cuck removed the ability to see how many IPs were posting in a thread, a useful way to see how many shills and samefags were in a given thread. You can't just use any email either, you can only use emails from specific domains, such as Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo Mail, Yandex, and ProtonMail. The only way to circumvent email verification is to, of course, give [[Hiro|gookmoot]] your money and buy a 4cuck pass. As you can tell, the real reason this is being implemented has nothing to do with stopping scams or bots in the slightest. At best, Hiro is being a kike and wants to force more and more people to throw money at a site he gives almost no fucks about, and at worst, our benevolent [[FBI|federal]] [[CIA|agencies]] want to [[Datamining|datamine]] 4cuck's userbase [[4chan is a Federal Honeypot|even further]]. | On April 13, 2024, the jannies of 4cuck have announced one of the worst changes to have ever happened to the website, mandated email verification in order to use /biz/.

/biz/ - Business and Finance is a board on the website 4chan. It was opened by Moot on February 13, 2014 in order to move crypto threads from /g/.
History
Some many, many years ago this board used to be useful, and actually had useful business advice, especially towards topics like crypto. However, this all changed on January 2021, when a bunch of Redditors on r/WallStreetBets joined together to short squeeze GameStop and other stocks for retarded, dying companies. Combined with the resurgence of Bitcoin and Dogecoin, this lead /biz/ to transform into the shithole it is today, a place for pajeets to rugpull retards with awful crypto scams.
The end
On April 13, 2024, the jannies of 4cuck have announced one of the worst changes to have ever happened to the website, mandated email verification in order to use /biz/. Their supposed reasoning is to stop the shills on /biz/, as spending all day cleaning up shitcoin scams was just too hard of work for the poor jannies. However, this reasoning is complete bullshit, as just a few weeks prior 4cuck removed the ability to see how many IPs were posting in a thread, a useful way to see how many shills and samefags were in a given thread. You can't just use any email either, you can only use emails from specific domains, such as Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo Mail, Yandex, and ProtonMail. The only way to circumvent email verification is to, of course, give gookmoot your money and buy a 4cuck pass. As you can tell, the real reason this is being implemented has nothing to do with stopping scams or bots in the slightest. At best, Hiro is being a kike and wants to force more and more people to throw money at a site he gives almost no fucks about, and at worst, our benevolent federal agencies want to datamine 4cuck's userbase even further.
