Kaito founder: The timeline proves that they did not have prior knowledge of X's exact policy; the previous announcement was made pending the outcome of communication.

Kaito AI founder Yu Hu provided supplementary information regarding the announcement of "taking Yaps and the incentive leaderboard offline." Regarding the timeline: his team first received an email from the X platform account manager on January 13th about a possible reassessment, and issued a legal response the same day after receiving formal legal notification; on January 15th, the team and the public simultaneously saw the public statement from Nikita Bier, the X product manager.
