So I wonder is any kremlinbots being caught here at bitcointalk or nobody cares?

Twitter is a huge worldwide platform where public opinion can be swayed. Why would Russia waste time with their bot armies on a bitcoin forum? Without evidence it's probably not even worth postulating.

IRA in action.

They're here too, not just twitter.

What makes you so sure? Somehow I doubt they're on every message board on the internet. They'll go where they can have the biggest impact and to places where they can influence the masses such as social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook.

I don't think that these kremlin bots are rooting for any particular side, it seems as if they're just trying to make the American electorate divided over so many issues

I disagree. I think they will always have an agenda. Clearly they wanted Trump in for whatever reason. Maybe not for anything specific other than being disruptive, but something tells me they did have a specific motive with this last presidential election.
