Castle Island Ventures Partner: X Sacrificing Crypto Community Reach, a Digital Property Rights Dispute is Coming

Nic Carter, a partner at Castle Island Ventures, wrote on the X platform that "X is being dominated by a 'For You' algorithm. The platform is making trade-offs between increasing user dwell time and maintaining a stable connection between creators and fans, currently prioritizing the former. This is impacting creators' ability to continuously reach their existing audiences and reducing the predictability of users consistently receiving content from the creators they follow, thus impacting niche vertical communities (filter bubbles) like Crypto Twitter." Nic Carter predicts that future discussions and demands surrounding "digital property rights" may emerge, focusing on algorithmic transparency, creators' right to reach their followers, and users' right to receive content from the accounts they follow.
