 The trend to social media kyc fits perfectly with what I would guess is the slowdown or even slow death of social media (just imo). 

Most people dip in and lurk, the content creators are still posting, they have careers and skin in the game, revenue /supplemental revenue sideshoots to preserve. 

But if you had to kyc to even just lurk social media, I would *guess* it would be a very quick death of it.

 The magical spell of social media and scrolling addiction would disappear overnight.

Just imo.

Which is why I don't see twitter/x rolling out kyc beyond premium features.
