This is not crypto related but to me worth posting.
Elon Musk and X likely took a developer’s idea in the worst possible way.
A developer named Selo @seloesque built x-graphs, a viral tool that ranked X interactions based on impressions and engagement.
Users loved it and he even walked xAI through the full architecture during 3 interviews.
Right after those interviews he was rejected, told to move to the paid X API, pushed to reveal his full data pipeline and then hit with a real cease and desist letter from X.
He shut everything down overnight.
11 days later Elon Musk announced a new X feature that ranks your following timeline using Grok.
The timing is wild and the whole situation looks like they extracted his ideas, killed his product with a C and D and then released their own version.
tldr:
build a powerful interaction ranking tool
positive xAI interviews
share architecture and data methods to xAI
get rejected
get a cease and desist letter from X
forced shutdown
11 days later Elon launches something almost similar
