Spotify 和一家名為 Kalshi 的公司正在研究一個問題。有些人利用虛假播放量來賺錢。

A song called 'Earrings' by Malcolm Todd became number one on Spotify. A man named Caleb Davies said this was not real. He said people used computer programs called bots to play the song many times. They did this to win money on Kalshi.

Malcolm Todd 的一首名為 ''Earrings'' 的歌曲在 Spotify 上排名第一。一名叫 Caleb Davies 的男子表示這並非真實。他說有人使用稱為機器人 (bots) 的電腦程式多次播放該歌曲。他們這樣做是為了在 Kalshi 上贏得金錢。

Spotify found the fake plays. They deleted 500,000 plays. The song moved to fourth place. But Kalshi already gave the money to the winners. Kalshi changed some words on their website because Spotify asked them to.

Spotify 發現了虛假播放量，刪除了 50 萬次播放。該歌曲隨後掉到第四名。但 Kalshi 已經將獎金發給了贏家。由於 Spotify 的要求，Kalshi 修改了其網站上的一些文字。

Some people say these money games are not safe. They say it is easy to trick the system. The government is now watching these companies more closely.
