You notice something when you spend time in the right circles—X has become the actual nerve center where things happen. The old gatekeepers of information? They're watching from the sidelines now.

Here's what's real: the people steering major decisions, they're on X. The signal flows through there first. Everything else trails behind, playing catch-up.

That shift tells you something fundamental changed about how power and information move around. The crowd that moves markets, shapes policy, breaks news—they've already migrated. The platform effect is undeniable at this point.

NGL X is now a meat grinder of information warfare; traditional media are indeed outdated.

X is indeed a new information hub, but don't completely dismiss traditional media. This is a typical echo chamber mentality—if everyone in the circle says so, it becomes the truth? Fast information flow ≠ genuine transfer of power. Don't be fooled by platform effects. Sounds nice, but in reality, traffic is still king. I agree, but the key issue is that the signal-to-noise ratio on X is getting worse, with true signals drowned out by noise.

NGL, this is the reality of the transfer of information power... Traditional media is indeed out.

There's something here. The information hub has indeed shifted, and traditional media have truly become the backup players.

theoretically speaking, if we model information flow as a state verification problem... X becomes just another rollup competing for settlement. the real question is whether this centralization actually solves the blockchain trilemma or just recreates it on social layer lmao

X has indeed become the front line of information warfare, but this tone sounds a bit exaggerated.

X has completely taken over the information source, and other platforms are basically just wrapping up.

X has truly become the central battleground for information warfare; the traditional media's way of controlling the narrative is outdated.
