Many big accounts here have completely lost their shame and now tweet only for X payouts, engagement farming or paid shills.

Many big accounts here have completely lost their shame and now tweet only for X payouts, engagement farming or paid shills.

They forget that without followers who actually interact, they would be nothing.

Instead of using their reach to do something useful for CT and their followers, they keep people entertained with nonsense and clickbait.

They turned this space into a crowd that questions nothing, chasing airdrops and dreaming of unrealistic profits, a greedy herd used as exit liquidity.

And it is not only the exit liquidity that suffers.

It is also everyone else who is tired of seeing this constant bullshit and tired of watching CT turn into a damn playground for people who failed in real life and now run slop accounts like 14 year olds just to pay their bills.

And now they wonder why so many people left.

I seriously hope that at some point intelligence itself becomes the meta in this space.

One of the few remaining hopes.

The four pictures are just a random selection of four accounts among many that have pushed this space deeper and deeper into nonsense over the last 2+ years.

It is by no means only these four.

There would have to be closer to 100 of them.
