A product leader at X recently let slip that the platform's algorithm actively throttles posts mentioning cryptocurrency. The admission raises obvious questions about whether different blockchain projects—Solana included in their example—receive unequal treatment in content distribution. This sparks a broader concern: if algorithms are being selectively applied based on which tokens or protocols are discussed, how transparent is the actual content moderation policy? The skepticism seems warranted when insiders acknowledge picking and choosing which crypto-related discussions get amplified.
