$KAITO
As of February 4, 2026, Kaito (KAITO) is facing a critical "survival pivot." Once the leader of the "InfoFi" (Information Finance) movement, the project is currently reeling from a major platform disruption that has forced it to reinvent its entire token economy.
1. The Crisis: The "Yaps" Shutdown
In mid-January 2026, X (formerly Twitter) revoked API access for applications that reward users for posting.
Impact: This effectively killed "Yaps," Kaito’s flagship product which accounted for roughly 70% of the token's utility.
Price Crash: The news triggered a sharp 24% collapse in price as the primary reason for holding and earning KAITO vanished overnight.
The Pivot: The team has launched Kaito Studio, a more regulated, tiered platform for professional creators, to replace the permissionless Yaps model.
