Is there any way to prevent 'bots' from farming Loot and devaluing it?

I've seen this happen a lot with in game currencies. If the currency is worth any real money at all, meaning if people are willing to buy currency rather than work for it, there will be bots. Even the biggest companies in the world can't stop all bots.

There is already a lot of incentive to cheat in games, including financial incentive.  Players farm gold, skins and other items and sell them on 3rd party sites.  Introducing our crypto solution doesn't change that, make it worse, or better.  It is impossible to stop 100% of this type of behavior from players, but solutions like Valve Anti Cheat, Battle Eye an other have done a good job of mitigating the worst of it.  Our own home grown solution is something we've been building for years (we are not a new business) and has also been proven to stop the worst of it.  Here is a video demo: https://vimeo.com/132487908

Signal Zero looks really useful, and obviously relevant. You guys made that also?

Signal Zero is the name of the company, but the video that shows all of the loss mitigation and data capabilities is typically referred to as "The Signal Zero Platform" and yes, its been an ongoing project for us since 2014.  Thanks a lot by the way.
