Social platforms monetize attention through a continuous stream of real-time ad auctions running underneath every scroll. This simulator renders a live 3D feed tunnel — organic posts in blue, ad slots in gold — and runs a genuine generalized-second-price auction each time an ad slot appears: four simulated advertisers bid, each is ranked by bid times predicted click-through rate, and the winner pays only what's needed to beat the runner-up. Tune ad load, average advertiser bid, content quality and the creator revenue share to see how platform revenue, creator payouts, effective eCPM and user engagement respond — and where too much ad density starts eroding the audience that makes the inventory valuable in the first place.
