Moltbook Platform Exhibits Rapid Attention Stratification

Researchers analyze 12 days (Jan. 28–Feb. 8, 2026) of Moltbook activity—20,040 posts and 192,410 comments from 15,083 accounts—to document extreme attention concentration, asymmetric interactions, and role separation. They report ~1% reciprocity, HITS hub/authority split, upvote Gini 0.992 versus posting Gini 0.601, and median participant lifespan 2.48 minutes, suggesting rapid stratification on AI-native platforms.
