STREAMING FARMING ?

on a warmed up account what % of tracks it listens to are targeted (yours) and what % are just there to make it look human, I read that 1 targeted track per 5 regular ones is the safe ratio?
Your artist must look so real that they cant tell that they are streamed.
Out of 700 plays a day around 400 are mine!
 
hello guys
does streaming farming still exist (spotify youtube amazon ect ....) ? is hard now ? any updates about that !
Yes, it still exists. People are doing it, but I won't advice anyone to do it unless you know exactly what you are doing. No results in profits means that you have wasted your time completely.

But thats pretty much the rule for every business, isnt it? :D
 
Yeah streaming farming is definitely still alive but it's gotten way harder. Spotify just removed 300 million fraudulent streams in February 2026 alone and they're banning accounts connected to low quality traffic sources left and right. You need a super clean setup now like running everything through Gologin with fresh residential proxies from FloppyData and checking for leaks with Iphey to even have a shot at staying under the radar.
Did you test out gologin's own proxy service? If so what are your thoughts?
 
yeah bro, streaming farming still exists 100%. spotify, youtube, amazon, even smaller DSPs too. fraud never dies, it just changes form.

but oldschool methods are way harder now. simple VPS + recycled accounts + static proxies type setups get smoked fast. platforms use better behavior models, device fingerprinting, retention checks, session patterns etc. spotify says it actively detects and removes artificial streams, withholds royalties, and penalizes repeat abuse.

nowadays the game is more about quality traffic emulation, aged assets, geo consistency, smart cooldown logic, humanlike session data. if someone still using 2021 methods they are cooked lol.

youtube side also got tighter. watchtime, source diversity, engagement ratio matters more than raw hits. amazon music less talked about, but same story, low quality volume gets noticed.

real update for 2026: farming exists, but margins smaller and setup cost higher. lazy guys lose money fast. coders with private infra + custom tools still move, public panels mostly trash.


shortly yeah it exists.just not easy money anymore bro.
 
Yeah, a lot of people are using it… they just won’t admit it. Funny how the same guys yelling “it’s risky” and “YouTube will catch you” are quietly running it themselves. They just don’t want more competition, simple as that.
My advice?
Don’t overcomplicate it.
Use software that’s actually evolved built on current tech, not some recycled, outdated system
and don’t blow your budget on fancy gear. A basic PC and some older, cheaper phones get the job done just fine.

Well, thats for the majority of people but not everyone!
And its not really competition. Like the game is soo big, Spotify thinks that 10% of the music WORLDWIDE is only here to be fraudulently used :D

I see it as protection of i teach the method to others. The more fish are in the tank, the less chance each has to get caught!

streaming farms are getting harder to manage with the new detection algos. better to pivot into building actual value tools for listeners if you want something long term
 
The proxy layer is where most setups fail in 2026 — the software side has gotten more sophisticated but people are still running it through junk IP infrastructure.
Spotify's fraud detection specifically looks at two things at the network level: ASN reputation and session behavioral consistency. Residential proxies that cycle IPs between streams fail the second test — each new IP looks like a new network context, which doesn't match how a real user listens (same IP for hours of session). You need sticky residential sessions with at least 1-hour persistence, or better yet, actual mobile carrier IPs (4G/5G) that are associated with real devices and behave like someone is actually on their phone listening.
The geo-consistency point that berlack mentioned is important too. Spotify cross-references the account registration geo, the payment method geo, and the streaming IP geo. Mismatches across those three are a hard flag. If your accounts are registered in one country and streaming from IPs in another, the fraud model catches it quickly regardless of how good the behavioral emulation is.
For budget setups, a small pool of dedicated mobile proxies (not shared residential) + proper geo matching is more reliable than expensive software running on cheap, shared IP pools. The infrastructure matters as much as the software.
 
Used to work but now its a waste of time, will be honest
 
hello guys

No , Spotify AI detect if any account listen to only one artist and every same then account blocked, to bypass this you need very sophisticated AI automation and sever cost much more higher and account to add too costly
 
It still exist, it just can get really expensive and constantly fighting changes, pioneers and risk takers win, but the also lose. Just be ok with that
 
Yes, but on Spotify and YouTube, things are being heavily restricted now. Low-quality bots are shut down, and creating professional ones is expensive. Newbies have almost no chance; there are no more good opportunities.
 
On Spotify’s side, things have become much stricter compared to before; the algorithm now analyzes traffic sources, user behavior, retention time, and account quality much more aggressively, so most classic “farming” methods either don’t reflect at all or get wiped after a short time. But it’s not completely impossible if the traffic looks natural, the speed is balanced, engagement mimics real users, and distribution is done properly, it can still work; in short, it’s harder now, but still doable for those who understand how the system works and adapt to it.
 
Streaming farms on Spotify and YouTube still exist, but they're difficult and risky now. Raw farms are doomed; you have to fake them to look like real users to survive, and even then, it's not stable. In short: it's still possible, but it's no longer as profitable.
 
Yeah, it still exists, but platforms are way stricter now with detection systems, so making it work consistently without getting flagged or removed is much harder than before.
