Current mainstream social platforms seem to be losing their edge. The golden age of broadly public networks might already be behind us, with a clear shift back toward closed communities—group chats, forums, niche spaces. What's more concerning is the timeline: within 1-2 years, AI will likely become sophisticated enough to infiltrate even these more private channels in ways that even AI specialists won't easily detect. This convergence of platform decline and rising AI risks could fundamentally reshape how we think about digital communication and security.

Little Red Book wallet has been emptied, Bitcoin wallet is still struggling, I am betting my future on Web3

The closed-loop community thing should have been seen early on, on-chain data has already reflected this—public chain traffic has been declining year after year, while private Discord and Telegram groups are skyrocketing. This is the market speaking.
Will AI break through all privacy defenses within 1-2 years? Bro, are you suggesting we quickly put assets on the chain and do anonymous transactions... I like this risk hedging approach, but honestly, by then we might be hoarding encrypted communication tools just like NFTs.
If the golden age is gone, then it’s gone. Anyway, my opportunity to build positions has always been in the gaps when others panic.

Now everyone is fleeing mainstream platforms. This wave is actually big institutions shorting the governance capabilities of public chains... sooner or later, a new underlying layer will emerge to fill this gap.

Wait, my airdrop wallet information... won’t it be exposed?

I've seen it all along, big platforms are just digging their own graves.

AI penetrating private communities within 1-2 years? This should have been prevented long ago, and now it's too late to say anything.

It's about time to return to the small circle; big platforms are just a burning stick.

Oh no, it's been obvious for a long time that big platforms are doomed.
People are hiding in small groups—can they really hide effectively?
Will AI be able to infiltrate in 1-2 years? I just want to ask, who can be trusted anymore?

They're damn rushing into Telegram and Signal, the open network really isn't that interesting.

ngl this is exactly what I've been worried about, big platforms really don't mean much anymore
