FOMO Removed Twitter Links. Get a Trader’s Real X Account Anyway.

FOMO removed X links from its profiles, making it hard to verify that a handle belongs to a given Twitter account. The FOMO API resolves the linked X account for traders on file, alongside their real wallets.

FOMO removed the X links from its profiles. The practical effect is that you can no longer look at a FOMO profile and confirm it belongs to the Twitter account it appears to be. For a space where impersonation is common and where a name carries real weight, that is a real gap. You see a handle, but you cannot tie it back to a verified social identity.

The FOMO API closes that gap for the traders it has on file.

Resolve the social identity

curl https://api.fomoapi.io/v2/users/frankdegods

The response includes a profile block. Where a trader has a linked X account on file, it returns the Twitter handle alongside the rest of their identity:

  • twitter: the linked X account.
  • wallets: the real Solana and EVM addresses, not the throwaway signer wallet.
  • verified PnL and account age: the track record behind the name.

So instead of a bare handle you cannot verify, you get the handle, the social account, and the on-chain identity in one place.

Why identity beats a name

A handle on its own is easy to fake. A handle tied to a specific X account and a specific pair of on-chain wallets is much harder to fake, because all three have to line up. That linkage is exactly what FOMO took off the profile, and it is what the API puts back.

Coverage depends on what a trader has connected, so not every handle resolves to an X account. Where one exists, the API returns it.
