What is really happening behind the crazy money-dispensing incentive programs on Twitter?

While everyone is watching the price fluctuations of cryptocurrencies, on-chain data monitoring has uncovered an interesting phenomenon—a suspicious flow of funds circulating within the creator revenue system of the X platform.

In simple terms, the recent proliferation of bot accounts on the platform employs much more complex tactics than you might imagine. What are they doing? They are arbitraging through systematic rules, bringing content farm models onto X. One side relies on algorithms to attract traffic, while the other side exploits incentive policies for cashing out and subsidies—classic "killing two birds with one stone."

Interestingly, the returns from this model are rapidly declining. Data shows that the monthly income from a single arbitrage path has already fallen to around $72. This signal is clear: either the platform's risk control is tightening, or there are too many competitors, and the market is saturated.

What does this mean? Any arbitrage model that relies solely on loopholes in rules is inherently short-lived. When a strategy becomes widely discussed, it has essentially entered the red ocean. The truly profitable ventures are always those based on creating real value, not exploiting system vulnerabilities.

In this era of collision between crypto and social finance, what is needed is not just the ability to track fund flows, but more importantly, to see through the sustainability behind these patterns. Opportunities that seem to make money are often the most fragile.
