Is the "Crypto Purge" at Twitter simply an algorithm glitch—or a massive Conflict of Interest?

As Head of Product at X, Nikita Bier sets the rules on who

gets shadow-banned, locked, or suspended for "inauthenticity."

·      He’s a Partner at Lightspeed Venture Partners, a VC giant with billions tied up in specific crypto projects.

·      He’s also a paid Advisor to Solana, actively working to grow the Solana ecosystem.

The Question: How can the man who controls the "Global Town Square" also be a partner at the firm picking the winners?

When X "sanitizes" the platform by killing organic reach for everyday users, is it for our safety, or is it Regulatory Capture to clear the path for his own portfolio?
