A major policy shift just sent shockwaves through the KAITO market. X's head of product recently moved to restrict API access and clamp down on influencer farming activities related to infofi platforms—and the market felt it immediately.
The token took a brutal hit, sliding 40% within minutes of the announcement. Such a sharp drop in such a short timeframe points to some serious liquidations and panic selling.
What's particularly interesting here is how quickly these policy decisions ripple through the ecosystem. When platform decisions directly impact how tokens are distributed and promoted, you're looking at a direct threat to liquidity and holder confidence. The restrictions on influencer farming activities essentially removes a key growth lever that many projects rely on.
This raises a broader question for investors: how dependent are these infofi projects on these distribution channels, and what happens when those channels suddenly dry up? Markets are pricing in the worst-case scenario right now, but there's opportunity for those who understand what's actually changing versus what's just panic.

40% direct plunge, this is the consequence of having no real application and relying solely on hype.

The tricks of manipulating traffic have finally been exposed. I've long been annoyed by this false prosperity... The 40% decline is actually an honest market response. Projects that rely on influencer farming to sustain themselves have never had real demand.

I need to wait a bit. Is this 40% drop really panic selling or is someone bottom-fishing?

Ha, another heavy policy blow... KAITO was really caught off guard this time. A 40% drop in just a few minutes? To put it simply, these projects rely entirely on this influence farming tactic to survive.
