Miss use by some users multiple keys system

Opened this issue · 3 comments

Some of node providers notice that some users are using system of 4 keys and buying multiple keys of price of 0.01. Then also some users are using not validated account buying multiple keys for 1 coin.
Can you please try to fix my advice is soon as you buy 1 space for next one you need to pay 5 coin.
Also block not validated users from buying keys.
Thanks in advance

This validation I sold just 94 keys for a total of 170 idna or $6.60 which covers just 1/4th of my monthly server cost
Of the 94 keys, 39 were 0.01 idna scammers, 7 were 1 idna scammers, which leaves 48 honest identities, or about exactly half.

It's about time something is done about this

Here is an example of a Human identity funding an address to buy multiple keys at the price of 1 coin: 0xB5f3877c5a84ae97D395a6d0101c0CEAace8f56a
This allows Verified and Human identities to buy keys for less than they're supposed to.

I don't think 'not validated' users should be blocked from buying keys. Instead I think any address that doesn't have a status should pay the maximum amount (5 coins). This way no one will be able to avoid the price they actually have to pay.
Also, we shouldn't have the same price when users buy multiple keys.

Not validated IDs, or second buy must pay max price
