I wonder how much is api traffic and how much is assets & images.

  I wonder how much of that is crypto spam bots replying to each other.

    Can you detect and block those spam bots with less effort than it would take to process them?

      That’s a not so simple calculation as comparing the raw request process time isn’t the complete picture. Spam bot content must be persistently stored, indexed, archived, etc so the long term cost is much more than the one off POST to create the entity. You’d also have to quantify the improved user experience from seeing less spam v.s. inflated ad revenue for garbage views / content.
