Most social finance platforms follow similar routines—desperately pushing traffic, piling up interactions, creating short-term incentives, and causing chaos.

Klout took a different approach. Instead of forcing users to participate, it’s better to let the system monetize what is already happening. Users are naturally interested in certain topics. Trends will form naturally. The market is already operating there.

This design philosophy is interesting—it's not about forcibly creating demand, but about identifying and monetizing existing behavioral patterns.

hold up... "monetizing existing behavior patterns"? that's just honeypot-adjacent terminology if you ask me. DYOR on their contract audit report first.

Hey, this approach is indeed smooth, no effort needed to generate fake hype.

This design idea is indeed different. Going with the trend is more sustainable than forcing hype. --- From historical data, this kind of passive monetization logic can last longer, but the real test is still ahead. --- Behavior pattern monetization? Sounds like the underlying logic of quantitative trading; no matter how the market cycle runs, it's the same set. --- Stop bragging. The key is whether you can retain users. Without traffic, what’s the point of system monetization? --- Interesting, but once users realize they have been "recognized," will they change their behavior patterns? It has a Schrödinger's cat vibe. --- To put it simply, it's still doing T, just with a different name. The market is always the market, and the logic is always the same. --- It sounds like a passive income approach, but a risk warning: existing behavior patterns could also suddenly collapse. --- This operation reminds me of those projects in the crypto world that claim "natural growth." What happened to them in the end? --- A bit surreal—users play their own game, and the system profits from the spread behind the scenes? Isn't that the purest form of parasitism?

This is the right way. Going with the trend is much smarter than hard-selling traffic, saving effort and being effective.

Hey, this is the right way. Finally, someone is not playing that referral scheme nonsense.

Wow, this is the right way. Not pushing hard actually allows things to thrive on their own, which is much more conscientious than platforms that constantly ask for your likes and shares.
