Major social platforms have tightened their API access policies, imposing restrictions on a category of InfoFi applications that rely on content incentives, aiming to reduce the proliferation of low-quality AI-generated responses. This policy adjustment immediately impacted the related ecosystem. The Kaito token dropped in response, falling from its previous high to around $0.57, a decline of nearly 20%, while trading volume increased by 87%, indicating the market is quickly adjusting its positions. Cookie also suffered, with a decline of over 20%, and the price fell back to $0.038. In response to this shock, projects like Kaito and Cookie are beginning to explore cross-platform solutions to reduce dependence on a single ecosystem. This incident also exposed a deeper issue—the current over-concentration of many crypto social applications on a single platform, making them high-risk factors when policies change.

Once again, platform rules change, and the coins have to kneel. Should have seen earlier that there were problems with these project structures.

---

Kaito Cookie's recent drop was well-deserved. Who told you to put all your eggs in one basket?

---

Honestly, projects relying on a single platform are inherently high-risk. It's a bit late to realize that now.

---

87% increase in trading volume... This is a sign of a pump-and-dump scheme. Those who move slowly will have to take the loss.

---

Cross-platform solutions? Sounds good, but I bet five cents this is just a PR stunt.

---

Policy restrictions just like that, the crypto world really needs to change this model.

---

I'm a bit curious if these projects will just rug pull, after all, their fundamentals are gone.

---

Why not diversify risks earlier? Isn't this just inviting trouble?

---

Are 0.57 and 0.038 both bottom prices, or will they continue to decline?

---

The API crashes as soon as it's closed, which shows there's no real competitiveness at all.

Another perfect example of a rug pull. As soon as the platform tightens policies, they kneel. How fragile are these projects?

The decline of Kaito and Cookie was long overdue. An ecosystem supported solely by AI spam bots is inherently a bubble.

Projects relying on a single platform should reflect on themselves. Have risk management skills been learned from dogs?

$0.57... My friend was hyping this last month. Now he's probably trapped in it haha.

Trading volume surges and the decline accelerates—typical panic buying and panic selling rhythm. Retail investors are getting another lesson.

If the platform can shut you down, it means your value isn't on the chain at all. A warning to everyone.

Cross-platform solutions? Just listen. If they could truly be implemented, we wouldn't be so passively getting beaten.

This is the price of making quick money. Without a real ecosystem, you're doomed to be sanctioned by policies.

Damn, once again the platform is swinging the axe. This group of projects is really too fragile; they get cut just like that.

Once again beaten down by a centralized platform. When will we truly achieve decentralization?

Kaito drops 20% just like that. I should have seen through these single-platform dependent projects long ago; the risk is just too high.

I feel like this wave of explosions is just the beginning. How many more such pitfalls are there?

AI-generated content is everywhere. Being dealt with is just deserved; the ecosystem itself is虚.

Another wave of platform cleanup, this time it's really over for those relying on a single ecosystem.

It’s about time to regulate those AI spam accounts, but with such a blunt approach, Kaito and Cookie have become sacrificial victims. What can such a small-cap coin do to resist?

The story of decentralized social media must continue; cross-chain and cross-platform are the right paths, otherwise it will always be bottlenecked by platforms.

$0.038, Cookie is almost wiped out; surviving would be a stroke of luck.

This actually reflects a current situation: Web3 is still too immature, with weak risk resistance.

Another wave of cleanup, it was about time. Low-quality AI responses are so annoying.

Kaito's decline is well-deserved; relying too much on big platforms is truly courting disaster.

Cookies are also being sacrificed; this is the consequence of a single ecosystem, everyone.

Cross-platform solutions? Sounds good, but I think it's still too passive. We need to take the initiative.

A 20% drop is actually minor; the problem is that these projects never considered the consequences of being cut off.

This time, we need to teach them a lesson: don't put all your eggs in one basket.

Here comes the pump and dump again. The platform's API tightening caused the price to drop like this. It was obvious from the start that this was the routine.

Kaito and Cookie really can't hold on this time. Relying on a single platform is their fate.

Honestly, it's too fragile. There's a problem with the architecture design.

Cross-chain and cross-platform should have been done long ago. Why only react now?

$0.57, laugh out loud. Is this the current state of Web3 social?

Trading volume skyrockets but the price crashes—typical panic selling. There's no confidence at all.

Just a tweak in the API policy and it’s like the whole system is about to break? How fragile is that?

That's why I’ve never dared to heavily invest in the social sector—the risks are too high.

Another wave of policy crackdown, this time it's InfoFi. To be honest, the platform can just charge for API access, it's long overdue to regulate those trash AI spam posts.

Kaito dropped 20%, Cookie is also lying flat, it seems everyone is in the same boat. This is the real systemic risk.

Cross-chain, cross-platform? Sounds good, but it feels like just talk on paper. Dependency issues are not so easy to solve.

After this wave, I realize that putting all eggs in one basket is really not sustainable. Time to reflect.

The surge in trading volume indicates someone is bottom fishing, while others are cutting losses. This tests your mental state the most.

If I had known, I wouldn't have gone all-in on a single ecosystem. History always repeats itself.

Damn, this round hit hard, exposing the fragility of social chains.

Cross-platform solutions sound promising, but can they really be implemented? I'm a bit skeptical.

Seeing such high trading volume, it feels like the market is searching for a bottom. But how high it can rebound is uncertain.

This is the current state of Web3—any little disturbance can wipe out the entire market. Too fragile, my friends.

Oh no, this is why you shouldn't go all-in on a single platform. Learned my lesson.

It's always the API bottleneck. When will we truly achieve decentralization?

Kaito drops 20% in price but trading volume surges... Is this institutional buying the dip or retail investors cutting losses? I really can't tell.

This is the real face of crypto, right? Policies change and everything falls apart. Infrastructure is too fragile.

No wonder Cookie also got caught up in it. The ecosystem fragmentation issue has been thoroughly exposed this time.

Cross-chain and cross-platform solutions are the way out, but is the technology up to the task? That's the question.

API policy is really harsh, directly killing the dreams of a batch of InfoFi projects.

Wait, low-quality AI responses are indeed annoying... but to throw the baby out with the bathwater? Feels like overkill.

Once again, big platforms are choking these projects. These projects really should think more about finding a way out.

Another wave of tokens collapsing due to platform policies. Why do some people still think they can rely on a single ecosystem to survive?

Kaito drops 20% in price, but trading volume surges by 87%. A classic sign of dump and run.

Waiting for these projects to promote cross-platform solutions, but it’s still the same old story.

It should have been clear that relying on a single platform is suicidal. I really don’t understand why some people still gamble on this.

Cookie and Kaito both underperform, probably the cost of over-centralization.

I just want to know how many people are trapped at 0.57...

It seems that the path of InfoFi needs to be changed. We can’t rely entirely on platform favors.

Another wave of politics... The platform cut off this group of InfoFi by a single stroke, which is the cost of over-relying on a single platform.

Kaito dropping 20% is okay, but the main issue is that 87% of the trading volume is terrifying. How many people are dumping?

It was about time to deal with those AI spam replies, but doing it this way indeed exposed the fragility of Web3 social networking.
