Kaito founder explains the timeline of recent events: the legal notice from X was received on January 14

Kaito founder Yu Hu provided a timeline of recent events on platform X, stating that he received an email from the account manager regarding a possible reassessment on January 13, and received a legal notice from X on January 14, to which he responded the same day. On January 15, he learned of the content released by Nikita at the same time as the public. Yu Hu indicated that he had previously received legal notices from X that were properly resolved, so it was reasonable to wait for further clarification and discussion before making a unilateral announcement within this brief time window.

Yu Hu also stated that Yaps has now been shut down, and Kaito plans to expand beyond the cryptocurrency field through Kaito Studio in 2026 across platforms (TikTok, YouTube). He mentioned that Kaito Studio has been in preparation for several months and will serve as a new model to complement Yaps. This change will not affect Kaito Launchpad, Kaito Pro, Kaito API, or the upcoming Kaito Markets, and more roadmap details will be released in the future.
