Magic Eden says a launchpad mint was botted

Magic Eden announced that the IRS collection, 1,099 NFTs at 1.099 SOL, would mint on its Launchpad at 17:00 UTC on December 27, 2021. That evening Magic Eden said the mint had been botted, and in a later reply it said it believed bots had pre-solved its captcha. It added that limiting NFTs per wallet would only lead bots to make more wallets.
