Under the restrictions of the X API, the InfoFi track has ushered in a new change. Mainstream data platforms are struggling due to API bans, but Rally, which also focuses on information finance models, has become a dark horse — the key lies in its completely different data collection approach.

Rally does not rely on API automatic fetching of user tweets but instead uses a manual submission mechanism, where participants actively upload tweet links to participate in the ecosystem. This decentralized data verification method cleverly circumvents X's new policy restrictions and has instead become an innovative approach that complies with platform rules.

Currently, Rally is in the Alpha testing phase and requires an application to experience. In the context of tightening policies, this user-driven data model could provide a new development idea for the entire InfoFi ecosystem.

This rally operation is really quite something, manually submitting to bypass API bans, essentially trying to find a way out in the cracks. Wait, can the user-driven data approach really last long? I always feel like it might be targeted again someday. Rally should have been popular a long time ago, but the alpha threshold is really annoying.

Manual submission? Isn't that just shifting the hassle to the users haha Rally is indeed clever this time, using the X Card API but unable to perform manual operations, they've basically pushed the boundaries of the rules Wait, won't user-driven data be easier to manipulate? I've always said that APIs are not the only solution, it seems someone has finally figured it out This approach was actually forced out, but it's definitely more flexible than other projects Alpha application is in queue... feels like I might have to wait forever again

Haha, this move is indeed brilliant. Users manually uploading directly bypasses API restrictions. Rally's operation here is quite clever. The stricter the rules, the more loopholes there are. It seems that user participation is the real way forward. Regarding decentralized verification, there still seems to be a trust issue, right? Can manual review keep up? Even at the Alpha stage, it's so eye-catching. If it really gets scaled up later, it could change the entire track. Wait, wouldn't manual submissions actually reduce participation? After all, most people are lazy. Rally managed to hit the right node this time. X's policy has instead become a booster for them. Can this model last? It feels like as soon as X changes its mind, they'll have to start over. Relying on user submissions sounds democratic, but how to ensure data quality? That's a sticking point. Hold on, could this actually attract more projects to follow this pattern, and then get regulated? Basically, it's handing over data collection rights to the community. An interesting idea.

Amazing, manually submitting this operation indeed avoids detection beautifully. To be honest, Rally's approach is much smarter than directly hitting the API. Waiting for Alpha to open and give it a try.

Hmm, Rally's move is indeed clever, directly avoiding the pitfalls of the API. --- Manual submission may sound low-tech, but isn't this just finding a way out within policy constraints? --- Wait, can the data quality be guaranteed like this? Or is it just another concept coin? --- Decentralized verification sounds good, but I'm worried it will ultimately become a tool for internal insiders to cut the leeks. --- Starting to hype during the alpha stage? I'll wait and see. --- Other platforms get banned, but Rally survives—luck or strength? --- Ah, now I have to apply and submit manually again, such a hassle. --- Policy tightening might actually present opportunities. How come I find this logic a bit convincing?

Ha, this move is quite clever. Bypassing API restrictions through manual submissions is truly an innovative push. It really has everything you could want. Manually uploading tweets can even create an ecosystem? Rally's approach is interesting, but it remains to be seen if it can really work out in the end. Another application-based project. These days, even experiences require queuing. Manual review—whether it's reliable or not, I really don't know. It just feels like a different way of doing manual labor. The entire InfoFi sector is paying the price for Elon’s decision. Quite ironic. But honestly, this approach does effectively avoid policy risks. Why haven't other projects thought of this?
