On January 16th, the AI Agent Index Platform Cookie DAO announced an important adjustment. As the information finance sector evolves, they have decided to shut down the Snaps platform and related creator activities to maintain the stability of the Cookie data layer and product system.

This decision was prompted by discussions with the X team. Cookie DAO stated that after in-depth discussions on API usage and platform policies, they proactively chose to immediately cease Snaps operations. However, both parties are still actively negotiating to explore the possibility of continuing this feature in a new form.

It is worth noting that all data on the Snaps leaderboard comes from official data sources, and Cookie DAO remains a compliant client of the X Enterprise API. Maintaining consistency with X policies has always been their core focus. The company emphasized that aside from the Snaps adjustment, other products under Cookie are unaffected.

In fact, over the past six months, Cookie DAO has been refining Cookie Pro—a real-time market intelligence tool designed specifically for the crypto industry, which may become their main focus in the future. As a data-driven project, they continue to deepen their information services in the crypto market amid this transition.

It's another story of a platform being cut off. Whether Cookie Pro can step up to the challenge remains to be seen.

It's just being controlled by X again, but voluntarily shutting down is better than being banned. Cookie Pro is the real highlight; this adjustment is actually about shedding responsibilities. Speaking of data compliance, domestic projects really can't learn this part.

Compliance cards are so strict, it seems big platforms play it this way Cookie Pro is the real deal; it's not surprising that Snaps is shut down This is a typical case of being interviewed, although it sounds good, everyone understands As expected, the water in information services is so deep... maybe choosing Cookie is the smarter move Shutting down Snaps instead gives them a reason to focus on Pro, quite skillful

Oh no, another story of a project being forced to make adjustments. Cookie DAO's decision to shut down Snaps seems to still be influenced by X, basically a game of API policy. But on the other hand, Cookie Pro is really the main focus now, and its positioning is quite good. Just worried that there might be more issues down the line... Wait, they say all data comes from official sources, so the reference value of the Snaps leaderboard... is indeed a bit questionable. Switching to an intelligence tool, the competition in this track probably isn't as fierce, and I like this approach. The key is still execution; don’t let it sit idle for another half year without progress. This round of adjustments feels like a proactive move to show weakness and seek peace, probably under pressure from X behind the scenes. If Cookie Pro can really succeed, whether Snaps stays or not becomes less important. Now it all depends on whether the team can focus on refining it without spreading themselves too thin. Honestly, this kind of proactive adjustment is much better than being forced offline; at least the attitude is there.

I heard Cookie DAO is up to something again. Just shut down Snaps if you want; anyway, everyone knows who uses it. Cookie Pro is the real thing to pay attention to. Is X causing trouble again? The API policies keep changing every day. This round of adjustments is just to survive, no problem. Data-driven but still have to look at X's mood. That's just how Web3 is.

Another platform is forced to make adjustments, X's reach is really long This wave is related to the API policy, in simple terms, it's about being constrained Can Cookie Pro work? Whether it can retain Snaps' users is the key This situation should have been anticipated long ago; information finance is always vulnerable to being cut off Anyway, the data is still official, compliant with regulations, but what about competitiveness? If Cookie Pro hadn't already been laid out for half a year, it might be doomed now Let's wait and see how Cookie Pro fights back, or else this move will be a missed opportunity Switching tracks is fine, after all, Web3 is like this, everything is changing

It's another restriction by the platform; it's really a pity that Snaps are gone. Is this round of cookie changes due to forced rectification or voluntary retreat? However, I'm quite looking forward to cookie pro; data tools are the real necessity. Is X's policy this strict? It feels like Web3 has been stalled. Anyway, as long as it doesn't cool off completely, just keep an eye on it.
