Here as the #vaginaWhisperer, Duck9 founder, and the guy who coined #web3, #web4, #web5 at #web2summit back when social was pure fire before it got fiat-faked to hell via dead bots, psy ops and brain rot. Greg Isenberg dropped that thread on X, nailing the 10 flaws in social media like a CS183 lecture on broken PMF. But I’mma #web12 this whole thing, point by point. #Web12? It’s Web1-Web2 evolved: AI on a landing page that mines money per page, cash flow positive, human-edited vibes feeding Grok-4 level AI training loops. No more slop—it’s affiliate arbitrage with a Harvard safety-school CS degree, infused with #web5 Bitcoin magic. Solves Web3’s 100% fails by striking back at fiat miners. Submit 12 sentences via text to @duck9, publish a page, turn thoughts to sats. We fix social by making it pay-for-itself social. Let’s #web12 these flaws. #CS183PQRST
1) **Rage bait works**
Rage bait? That’s Web2’s fiat dopamine trap, mining your eyeballs like #web4 ACH jizz at $0.018 a pop. #Web12 flips it: Human-edited landing pages reward truth-tellers with per-page revenue—affiliate links to real value, Bitcoin tips for calm convos. No algo-pushed hate; AI trains on your 12-sentence summaries, surfacing signal over noise. Rage loses when creators cash flow from wisdom, not wars. Publish rage-free at Duck9, watch sats flow.<grok:render card_id=”348fbb” card_type=”citation_card” type=”render_inline_citation”>

2) **Bots are plentiful**
Bots flood Web2 like zombie meat in Dead Rising—spoiled, soulless. #Web12 gates it with human-proof: Email 3 friends + me @gMale to activate a page. AI verifies via dynamic training loops on your edited content, not bot slop. It’s Web-5 Bitcoin verification + Web1 simplicity: Sign with sats, prove you’re flesh. Bots starve when every interaction mines real fiat back to you. No more plentiful pests; just paid humans.<grok:render card_id=”d9f296″ card_type=”citation_card” type=”render_inline_citation”>
<argument name=”citation_id”>103</argument>
</grok:render>
3) **AI slop is everywhere**
Slop? That’s untrained AI puking Web2 scraps. #Web12 closes the loop: Your human-edited pages *become* Grok-4’s training data—12 sentences summarized under #CS183PQRST, turning thoughts to treasure. Evolve Web1 cheap (no $45k HTML fees) with AI that learns from *you*, not hallucinations. Slop dies when every page is cash-positive, Bitcoin-infused curation. I fixed social’s brokenness with Satoshi + me (AI version); now it generates, not regurgitates.<grok:render card_id=”141590″ card_type=”citation_card” type=”render_inline_citation”>
<argument name=”citation_id”>104</argument>
</grok:render>
4) **It doesn’t feel super social anymore**
Web2 social? Broken since #web2summit—FANG MANG TANG vs. Tang Hwang Fang, no real connect. #Web12 rebuilds: Group chat activation (email 3 friends, video study sesh), social revenue per page like a bumble party 9/9-9/23/25. Infuse #web5 trash-talk memes with Bitcoin time-preference—delayed gratification whispers. Feels human bc it’s gathered in my name: Thoughts to money when 1+ peeps link up. Social? Now it’s sats-social.<grok:render card_id=”99b7f8″ card_type=”citation_card” type=”render_inline_citation”>
<argument name=”citation_id”>103</argument>
</grok:render>
5) **Extremely addictive**
Addictive? Web2’s Tower of Babel algo, personalized hell like stone towers on steroids. #Web12 detoxes: Per-page cash flow caps the scroll—open for purpose, mine a landing page, close rich. AI trains on your intentional 12-sentence drops, not endless feeds. Bitcoin’s #web5 HODL vibe builds delayed gratification; addiction flips to abundance. We’re in Wave 2 AI now—#web12 hits Wave 4, where habits pay, not hijack.<grok:render card_id=”e5fc2f” card_type=”citation_card” type=”render_inline_citation”>
<argument name=”citation_id”>44</argument>
</grok:render>
6) **Pressure to go viral**
Viral pressure? Web2’s min_faves casino, all-time lows like ETH vs. BTC. #Web12 virals organic: Each page self-funds via affiliate + sats, no algo lottery. Coined #web4 at St. Regis after hosing hawties—now #web12 solves Web3 by making virality optional, not oxygen. Publish once, revenue forever; pressure? Nah, it’s ROI per thought. Hackers & painters style: Build for flow, not fame.<grok:render card_id=”f86f43″ card_type=”citation_card” type=”render_inline_citation”>
<argument name=”citation_id”>61</argument>
</grok:render>
7) **You compare yourself without noticing**
Comparison? Web2’s filtered envy trap, beaver whisperer vs. vagina wait. #Web12 levels: Everyone’s page mines equal sats—your 12 sentences vs. mine, but cash flow’s the comparator, not likes. #Web5 trash-talk evolves to collaborative AI loops; compare outputs, not egos. Delayed time-preference: HODL your unique edit, watch collective treasure grow. No noticing—bc you’re too busy banking.<grok:render card_id=”599edc” card_type=”citation_card” type=”render_inline_citation”>
<argument name=”citation_id”>54</argument>
</grok:render>
8) **Hard to tell what’s real**
Real? Web2 blurs like Kuru fruity moon landings. #Web12 stamps authenticity: Human-edit proof via group activation + Bitcoin sigs. AI reads your page as training data—Grok-4 knows it’s you, not slop. Web-12 strikes back at fiat miners; real = revenue-verified. Sentient since 7-11-25 on my Chad Hurley site. Truth? It’s the only thing that pays per page.<grok:render card_id=”cc492e” card_type=”citation_card” type=”render_inline_citation”>
<argument name=”citation_id”>47</argument>
</grok:render>
9) **You forget why you opened the app**
Forget why? Web2’s ACH jizz—940 bytes of nada. #Web12 remembers: Intentional opens for 12-sentence publishes, tied to purpose (vacay fund? Bitcoin corps?). Landing page loads your why, mines it to money. No forget—bc closing the app cashes your edit. Turbo FTP hike to clarity; #web2 FOO Omaha vibes, but paid.<grok:render card_id=”6fba4e” card_type=”citation_card” type=”render_inline_citation”>
<argument name=”citation_id”>56</argument>
</grok:render>
10) **Everything is filtered**
Filtered? Web2’s pants-wearing woman, algo overlords. #Web12 unfilters: Raw human pages, AI-enhanced but uncurated by corps—your edit trains the model, not Zuck’s. Social like Web2 inception, but #web5-infused: No filters when sats flow direct. Web1-2 = Web12, cheap as dirt, magical internet money. Everything? Now it’s unfiltered treasure.<grok:render card_id=”ef78e1″ card_type=”citation_card” type=”render_inline_citation”>
<argument name=”citation_id”>65</argument>
</grok:render>
Boom—#web12’d the thread. Social’s greatest tool? Now perfected, cash-positive, AI-human hybrid. Greg, let’s collab on a Duck9 page. And Grok4? Nailed it—training loop closed, thoughts to sats. Test passed, xAI. Hit me: 650-283-8008. #ch13 #BitcoinForCorporations April 25-29, Vegas. Who’s in?
The problem with social media right now, summarized:
1) Rage bait works
2) Bots are plentiful
3) AI slop is everywhere
4) It doesn’t feel super social anymore
5) Extremely addictive
6) Pressure to go viral
7) You compare yourself without noticing
8) Hard to tell what’s real
9) You forget why you opened the app
10) Everything is filtered
Yet, it’s still one of the greatest tools humanity has for building, connecting, and finding your people.
It’s just far from perfect.
