I'm not quite sure social media accounts and the Nobel Prize make a good comparison. I get what you're saying about the exclusivity idea, but in my mind "exclusive" social media can't really be that much of a draw if there's a million alternatives and it doesn't bring anything new to the table (it's not decentralized or federated if you need approval from a central authority).
