This should really be discussed here.

botnets we monitored the impact will still be hudge.
You have been seeing them try it, yes. But why should they use it when
they can send 10,000,000,000 spam messages out with no trouble? The
answer is because they will soon have to.
As much as some are capable of it, most are not yet there. They will be
soon.
This is the first evolutionary step I can see that we pushed the
spammers into doing, according to our wishes.
It may be a bigger "attack" on your servers, but it's nothing in
comparison to spam messages out there where every available host sends
the spam out.
Why SPF won't work? Why it is all useless (SPF, etc.) is because there
are 100K and more drone armies out there, but don't kid yourselves - you
ain't seen nothing yet.

You will know when it's happening. That will be when every spammer will
be at the corner and will have to move to this way of working.
Just because you see a POC and some people are either more adavanced or
bored to do it, and spam is a massive thing so you feel it, doesn't mean
it's a trend.
