ZachXBT posted on X, stating that recently he has been posting more analysis content on his Telegram channel rather than on X. In June, his content distribution was "9 reports on Telegram, compared to just 1 investigation on X." ZachXBT mentioned several technical bugs during the migration from the traditional DM system to XChat, along with a decline in X's search functionality reliability, affecting information retrieval efficiency.
Furthermore, ZachXBT stated that X's algorithm creates a "traffic trap" for crypto content, making it more likely to be restricted within the crypto vertical circle, reducing the ability to reach a broader audience.
