BlockBeats News, January 16, Cookie DAO, an AI agent index platform project, announced that "InfoFi is changing, and it is time to gradually sunset Snaps: shutting down the Snaps platform and all ongoing creator activities to maintain the integrity of the Cookie data layer and its product ecosystem. After communicating with the X team regarding its API and X's usage policies, we have decided to immediately shut down Snaps and all ongoing activities. Currently, we are actively discussing with X to assess the possibility of Snaps continuing to operate in a new form.

We have always believed that we are in compliance with X's relevant rules and policies. However, given the current situation, it is highly likely that InfoFi will undergo a major transformation. We will await further confirmation and guidance from X to determine if creator activities like Snaps may still exist in some form in the future.

The data used in the Snaps leaderboard comes from an official data source, and we are still a customer of the Twitter Enterprise API. Therefore, maintaining compliance with X's policies has always been our top priority. The rest of the products under Cookie are not affected by this adjustment, and we remain a data-centric project. Over the past six months, we have been building Cookie Pro—an real-time market intelligence product for the crypto industry, scheduled to be officially launched in the first quarter.

Previously reported, X revoked API access to the "InfoFi" app to reduce platform spam content.
