Okay, we’ve kept this to ourselves long enough.
(And by long enough, we mean about two weeks after we heard about it on the website Blockworks podcast network).
Grok, the AI built into the premium services package on X (formerly Twitter), is a secret crypto research tool hidden in plain sight.
The vast majority of crypto proponents (big and small) have chosen X as their platform of choice to share their thoughts, insights and research.
So much so that this collective mindshare is affectionately called “Crypto Twitter.”
And guess what Grok is trained for? Twitter content.
That means when you ask Grok a crypto-specific question, it searches through a series of recent, highly engaged posts to provide what we think are surprisingly accurate answers (timestamps and all).
