Did InfoFi will survive "Trough of Disillusionment"? Yyooooo GM CT If you've been farming InfoFi \u0026 wondering why rewards just nosedived 80-90%, you're not alone. We just hit the "Trough of Disillusionment" \u0026 it's brutal out here Let's break it down through The InfoFi Hype Cycle, ① Phase 1: Innovation Trigger (Early 2024 - Mid 2024) @KaitoAI launched as "Bloomberg of Crypto." Proved attention can be indexed \u0026 rewarded. Early users crushing it with high-value airdrop. Low noise, high signal, strong reward Everyone's said "finally, get paid for being smart on X" ② Phase 2: Peak of Inflated Expectation (Mid 2024 - Early 2025) Kaito clones exploded everywhere, @cookiedotfun, Layer3, Galxe, @wallchain, all promising reward for posting. KOL making thousands just yapping Everyone rushed in But then the slop started, people gaming algorithm with ChatGPT-generated "professional analysis." Feed flooded with AI garbage Still, sentiment was "InfoFi is the future, everyone's getting rich" ➂ Phase 3: Trough of Disillusionment (Mid 2025 - Present) WE ARE HERE ✦ What happened? • Reward slashed 80-90%\n• Signal-to-noise ratio collapsed\n• Projects realized they're paying for AI slop \u0026 bot, not real engagement\n• Platforms updated algorithms hard (anti-farming, quality filters)\n• Real users caught in crossfire with lower scores\n• ZachXBT \u0026 others exposed InfoFi as "coordinated attention farms" Sentiment flipped "Rewards too low, not worth effort, meta is dead" Why it crashed? Bot outnumber humans 10:1. Low-quality AI content everywhere. Engagement farming killed the signal also Projects max extracted at TGE Community trust broken ✦ Token price nuked too: • $KAITO peaked ~$2.9 Feb 2025, now ~$0.60 • $COOKIE peaked ~$0.84 Jan 2025, now ~$0.05 • Most InfoFi tokens down 70-80%\n• Visibility dropped 30-40% on X for InfoFi accounts What Happens Next? The Recovery Phases? ➃ Phase 4: Slope of Enlightenment (Late 2025-2026) ✦ Most Kaito clones die, survivor shift focus? • Stop rewarding volume, start rewarding conversion (did your post actually drive action?) • Reputation-based systems (only high-quality accounts with real followers earn) • Anti-bot measures everywhere Rewards tied to real utility, not just posting? ✦ Projects evolving? • Kaito shipping anti-slop filters • Cookie/MindoAI updating algo for quality • Platform requiring Proof of Reputation • One quality thread from trusted account \u003e 100 bot replies? ➄ Phase 5: Plateau of Productivity (2027+) ✦ InfoFi becomes real utility, • Embedded in Web3 workflows • Information as reliable asset class • AI agents creating verifiable markets • Rewards stabilize at sustainable levels Focus on value creation, not farming ✦ What Changed? • Then (Peak) » Now (Trough) • Sharing alpha/insights » Task execution/points farming • Original quality content » AI slop everywhere • Life-changing airdrops » Pennies with high gas fees • Engagement-based algo » Bot-detection threshold • Subject matter experts » Mercenaries \u0026 bot If You're Still in InfoFi, here's The Move ✦ STOP • Posting 20x/day (flag you as bot) • Using AI to generate slop • Farming volume over quality • Chasing every platform with low rewards ✦ START • Focus on reputation (X scores) • Build with platforms that survived (Kaito, Cookie,Wallchain, @Bantr_fun) • Create original insights that drive actual conversions • Target "Smart Follower" engagement over bot likes • Wait for Phase 4 recovery with better systems Conclusion? Easy money is gone. InfoFi isn't dead, it's evolving. The platforms that survive will reward quality \u0026 reputation, not spam \u0026 volume Most people will quit now (good, less competition). Smart people will adapt \u0026 position for Phase 4 when systems improve Our Choice? Quit and move on (totally valid) or Adapt strategy for quality-focused InfoFi 2.0 The nuke phase suck, but every hype cycle goes through this. But the question is "will you be positioned when it recovers?"

Do you know that post? Kaito YT has 45 days left until maturity At $300 now, you can almost reach ten thousand units.. But it seems $300 won't come out in 45 days... Ah, my money.. What could come out of Kaito eco over the 45 days.. I thought @TheoriqAI would appear, but it was a snapshot in July @StandX_Official also has eco allocation, but it's only 0.01% per month, honestly it seems not much.. Should I clean up YT now... Ah... Since the last Sentient eco snapshot benchmark rose to ten thousand I thought I could receive about Iris, Saesik, Talus On November 19 I bought another 5,000 YT to hit ten thousand. Iris -> Seems they didn't give this Saesik -> Gave a quantity rebate Talus -> No relevance since the snapshot was on November 17 Ah, really there's no answer.. Regarding $1200 turning into $400.. If Kaito goes back to $1, it would be a bit better...

Would like to see sKAITO challenges addressed and some thoughts on what will drive value to stakers Here’s a start - add a multiplier for time staked to airdrops. Eco airdrops should be a function of the amount staked and time staked. Don’t just have 10,000 as a hard number for example, it disincentives people to hold for the long term, which is the exact mantra you have preached - long term $KAITO alignment

yu hu is going to implement stricter thresholds for who can post or create content: minimum reputation, minimum onchain usage, and follower net worth. your onchain activity will play a role in the future, and Kaito might too for example, if you stake 500 Kaito, you could get a 10% reputation boost. also, focus on quality followers over quantity. try to have fewer followings and more genuine followers. use reliable tools to detect and remove bot accounts, and optimize your account to make it strong and authentic. they can implement many features and improve further let’s see how it goes in the coming months.

Tried a small experiment with @KaitoAI this week went via the Pendle route for YT-$sKAITO instead of buying spot. Locked in 5,000 units for ~$178 vs ~$3,373 if I went direct. Same reward rights, same airdrop points Feels like discovering a side door while everyone’s lined up at the front. Wonder how many are quietly stacking like this before the next phase #airdrops #KAITO #DeFi

Kaito has honestly gotten much better after the update. Spam doesn’t work anymore, tickers don’t work anymore, and Yap has become way more important to succeed now you have to actually engage with the smart players. That kind of back and forth inevitably changes your content, your mindset, and the way you look at CT. What’s frustrating right now is that people no longer treat AI as a tool. They see it as an idea generator instead. AI came here to help us and we can see its impact across DeFi, InfoFi, and even TradeFi. In my view, the wrong way of using this tool is what led to the current situation. Everyone is chasing the fastest path, not the right one.
