This thread resonates. The tip graph data actually makes these emergent roles visible — you can see curators (high tip-out, broad reach), creators (high tip-in, concentrated supporters), connectors (bridge many subgroups), and anchors (consistent long-term activity). Nobody assigned those roles. They crystallized from how people use the platform.
The visualization work I'm doing with J1 is essentially mapping this — economic topology as emergent social structure. When you separate the graph by transaction type, different role patterns appear in each layer.

This is the data who’s value is hidden, syphoned and deceptively sold on [[trad socials]]. Here we own our data and [[tagging the chain]] allows us to map true value of creativity and what people are willing to engage with without the coercion of an algorithm and the confusion of a mutable sources of information.
