It's not so important to tell the difference between a human and a bot as it is to tell the difference between a human and ten thousand bots. So add a very small cost to passing the test that is trivial to a human but would make mass abuse impractical. Like a million dollars. And then when a bot or two does get through anyway, who cares, you got a million dollars.
Ask how much is 1 divided by 3; then ask to multiply this result by 6.
If the results looks like 1.99999999998 , it's 99.999999998% a bot.
I just tried this with snapchat bot and it relied 2
Damn! Now I'm wondering if I married a fellow human or a bot.
