The era of 'X's bottom cutting' and 'mouth slapping' comes to an end X no longer allows mining through tweets. Product owner Nikita Bier announced yesterday that all applications that reward users for posting will have their API access revoked. He also kindly added: Developers who have been banned can contact us, and we will help you move to Threads and Bluesky. The landlord drove people and even helped call a moving company. As soon as the news came out, the InfoFi track fell to the ground. KAITO fell by 20%, cookies fell by 20%, and the Kaito Yappers community with 157000 people was directly blocked. However, less than an hour later, Kaito founder Yu Hu posted a long article. The article neither apologizes to the community nor expresses protest against X's policies; The core meaning is just one: Change places. Yaps is not doing it anymore. The new product is called Kaito Studio, which takes the traditional marketing approach. Brands and creators collaborate one-on-one, and it is no longer an open model where everyone can earn points. Twitter no longer serves, go to YouTube and TikTok in the future. The crypto circle is no longer serving us. In the future, we will focus on finance, AI, and the entire creator economy, which will be a $200 billion market. There is a product, a direction, data, and a new story. Just, I don't think it's like an emergency response that can be written in an hour. It's more like I knew there would be a day long ago, with the manuscript lying in the drawer, waiting for X to take action. Meanwhile, there are earlier signals on the chain. Kaito has signed multiple contracts and previously distributed 24 million KAITOs to five addresses. One of the addresses had already transferred all 5 million KAITOs to Binance a week ago. It's more like a bag for safety. Communicate in advance, write articles in advance, and transfer coins to the exchange in advance. Everything that needs to be done has been done. Then X made an official announcement, and Changwen immediately followed suit, posing beautifully and actively transforming, embracing change. Yu Hu wrote in the statement: "After discussions with X, both parties agree that a completely permissionless distribution system is no longer feasible. " It is unanimously agreed. Being kicked out should be considered as reaching a consensus. The product has been sentenced to death and needs to be packaged as a strategic upgrade. We have seen this rhetoric too much in the encryption circle. The project team will never say 'we failed'. They said they are exploring new possibilities, that the market environment has changed, and that this is a planned transformation. Very respectable, but also very public relations. In the end, X's ban is just the final blow. The business of mouth slapping is already on the verge of decline. Twitter mining sounds beautiful, tokenizing attention and allowing creators to receive fair returns in a decentralized information economy. But in reality, we all know that the taste has completely changed. If rewards are linked to posting, then post more. If AI can generate content in batches, then let AI publish it. There is no limit to the number of accounts, so just open a bunch of small accounts .. According to CryptoQuant's data, on January 9th, the robot generated 7.75 million encrypted tweets on X, a year-on-year increase of 1224%. ZachXBT was cursing last year, saying that these InfoFi platforms are the culprits of AI junk content. He offered a reward of $5000 for collecting user data to capture the robot. Serious discussion about being replaced by full screen GM, LFG, and bully, where real people and robots are mixed together, it is indeed difficult to distinguish who is who. Nikita Bier, the product manager of X, actually posted a tweet last week: CT is dying from suicide, not from the algorithm. Encrypting Twitter is suicidal, not killed by algorithms. At that time, the crypto community criticized him for being arrogant and kept using GM memes to respond to him. Looking back now, doesn't it look like a notice before the execution of a physical assault? Regarding junk content, Kaito founder Yu Hu said they have tried various methods. Raise the threshold, add filters, and modify incentive design. But it's of no use. You are rewarding posts with tokens to create noise. No matter how high the threshold is, it cannot be driven by profit. Humanity is there. As long as the motivation remains, spam will not stop. What's even more deadly is that the lifeline is in someone else's hands. What business does Kaito do? Borrowing X's traffic, using tokens to incentivize users to produce content, and selling data to project parties for marketing purposes. X is the foundation, Kaito is the house built on top of it. If the owner of the foundation wants to reclaim it one day, the house will collapse. No need for reasons, no need for negotiation, one announcement is enough. Simply put, the story told by InfoFi is called the decentralized attention economy. But the attention part has never been in your hands. Algorithms belong to the platform, APIs belong to the platform, and users belong to the platform as well. You can chain your points and decentralize your tokens, but you cannot decentralize Twitter. Parasites want to change the life of their hosts. The host doesn't need a revolution, just pull out the tube. In recent years, this entrepreneurial idea has become popular in Web3: leveraging the traffic of Web2 to create the momentum of Web3. But users are on Twitter, data is on Twitter, attention is on Twitter, but tokens are issued by oneself, and money is earned by oneself. Sounds very smart, it weighs a thousand pounds. But other people's traffic ultimately belongs to others. The platform allows you today because it hasn't hindered him yet. One day, due to obstacles, the vampire style business will really not be able to continue. It can also be considered as a wake-up call for all Web3 projects that started with borrowing platform traffic. If your lifeline is in someone else's hands, every penny you earn will be temporarily confiscated by them. Think clearly whether you are starting a business or renting a house. Renters should not have a landlord mentality, let alone feel that the house belongs to them. Kaito said he's going to YouTube and TikTok next. Is the landlord over there easier to talk to than Musk?
