Part of the way Nike plans to rectify this, the CEO said, is to do an audit of its launch process to ensure consumers have confidence in the way it releases limited-edition sneakers. These sneakers have been the targets of bots that seek to beat out regular customers for online drops.

“We’ve been working on anti-bot technology for the last several years,” Donahoe said. “That is part of the solution, but we need to double down our efforts.”

Or you could could increase supply :mjlol:

It's really not that hard of a problem to solve. Nike and other sneaker companies just refuse to do so.

From my understanding, Shopify sites have antibot tech. Nike should've been doing this :smh:

The kid ran an entire ass scheme out here using his mom's connection and employee discount and Nike's solution to the problem is bot protection :russ:

That's on her for not disclosing all of the information to Nike, but it's also on them though as they should have never allowed it to happen the first place. People complain daily about resellers, yet they were perfectly fine with letting a high level employee help her child open up a sneaker reselling business. What the fukk did they think was going to happen :mjlol:

I've been out the bot world for a few months.

What others bots are used for Nike now? :dwillhuh: The last I heard of was TSB and even with them it was tough.

The game's been exposed. It ain't just that resellers are using bots, they have corporate ties, or may even be a part of embezzlement schemes. "Bot protection" isn't gonna do anything, higher ups at nike are using the resell market to line their own pockets.

This recent employee bust is damning. I wanna leave the shoe game but I'm stuck here. :mjcry:

If you try and fail at every shoe, are you really in the game? :mjcry:

I can't even hit on the Dunks on SNKRS unless it's GS sizes :mjcry:
I finally scored on a pair but they prolly like the least my favorite pair in over a year. I've only hit a few times, but every time it was on some shyt I don't really want.


:damn:I was buying dunks when nikkas said they fell off. Now I can't get a pair that's not resale. :mjcry:
