Crypto Tops X’s Most-Muted List, and AI Slop May Be Why
Cointelegraph
Crypto has become the most-muted topic on X, likely due to an influx of AI-generated spam and low-quality content.Summary
Crypto has emerged as the most-muted topic on X since the platform introduced its snooze feature for Premium subscribers. Nikita Bier, X’s head of product, indicated that this trend, which surpasses politics and sports, is largely driven by "AI slop"—a surge of low-quality, automated, and spam-heavy content. While some X executives argue that the crypto community's own overposting habits are to blame for reduced visibility, industry figures like Ki Young Ju contend that the platform's inability to effectively filter AI-generated spam from legitimate discourse is the core issue.
