# Collector's Code of Conduct

### Advantaged Buying

Advantaged buyers are considered those who have tools they have built themselves, or purchased from others, that give them an algorithmic advantage and automated buying capabilities from primary markets or secondary markets. This is colloquially referred to as **botting** and like in many communities, is considered taboo.

At fxhash, there is inbuilt **anti-botting** mechanisms included in the contracts to combat this behaviour. Small scale botting is allowed but is highly discouraged.

{% hint style="danger" %}
Collectors that are caught botting will be outed where possible, have their verification removed (with their chances of re-verification drastically reduced) and in extreme cases, a server-wide announcement made about their activities if we deem it a risk to our collectors.
{% endhint %}

### Market Manipulation

Attempts at market manipulation are taken extremely seriously and will not be accepted. Due to the nature of the blockchain, and methods and tools developed by the team, it is possible for us to thread together transactions (even across marketplaces) in order to create a strong, evidence based, case against a user.

{% hint style="danger" %}
Users which do try to manipulate the market will be made aware to the community, moderate and lose their reputation.
