Platform policy shift creates market ripple. X just tightened its API terms—apps that incentivize user posts or engagement are now getting banned. The move sent shockwaves through tokens tied to engagement platforms. Take COOKIE: it tanked 17% following the announcement. KAITO didn't fare much better, dropping 15%. The correlation's telling. When infrastructure changes this way, projects built on user reward mechanics face immediate pressure. Traders are dumping positions, fearful that the policy constraint could crimp these platforms' core value proposition. Worth watching how these projects adapt.

X's move was really harsh; engagement tokens all cried, COOKIE was directly cut in half... Honestly, these things should have been regulated long ago.

This move was really ruthless; the engagement token was directly cut, and COOKIE's 17% drop is still considered lucky.

X is causing trouble again, this time directly cutting off the livelihood of the engagement tokens. COOKIE and KAITO are directly halved, it’s painful to watch.

X's move was ruthless, directly hitting the core of these projects. COOKIE dropped 17%, really tragic. I thought it would stay stable.
