Kaito has become a huge hit.
However, the hype around Kaito is accompanied by various FUD voices, with criticisms focusing on the relatively low weight of Chinese content and the black box nature of the Yaps point system.
Despite the criticism, I am still optimistic about Kaito. Firstly, I hold Kaito NFTs, and I believe Kaito will bring a revolution in quantifying influence. In the future, more and more major projects will embrace Kaito, selecting contributors based on their rankings and conducting airdrops.
Remember, we are here to make money, so embracing and finding the right way to participate is the key. However, the fact that Chinese content has a relatively low weight should still be criticized, as such posts can stimulate widespread discussion and help increase Yaps points.
Recently, many major projects have announced their embrace of Kaito. Let's take a look at them:
① STORY: A Behemoth Valued at Over $2.2 Billion
@StoryProtocol is expected to have a big year in 2025. The young and capable founder, @jasonjzhao, not only holds a Kaito Genesis NFT but also directly stated that "Yap = IP".
If you don't understand the significance of IP for Story, here's a formula for you: AI + Blockchain + IP = Story Protocol.
The founder's open statement of "Yap is IP" is essentially telling you that the Kaito-Story ranking will be included in the incentive scope, and those who understand this know what to do.
② Movement: A Big Hit in 2024
@movementlabsxyz's airdrops are simple, straightforward, and short-term, with a return rate far exceeding expectations, and there will be a second round of airdrops.
The young founder, @rushimanche, has become a legend, and has clearly stated that Move Yaps are coming soon. Once Move is integrated into Kaito, social media influencers on the rankings are likely to receive valuable second-round airdrops.
③ SOON: A Dark Horse Backed by Heavyweight Investors
The new SVM project @soon_svm has received investments from a slew of big names: the Chairman of the Solana Foundation, the Co-founder of Solana Labs, the Head of Coinbase Ventures, the Co-founders of Celestia Labs and Avail, and the Co-founders of the Wormhole Foundation.
The official is very focused on community contributions, with the earliest pioneer NFTs being scarce, and most of the rewards going to community contributors, so the future airdrop value is not to be underestimated.
Referring to the tweets of the SOON Official and the founder @justsayuluvjo, they should soon be integrated into Kaito, and the old-timers with high rankings on the SOON leaderboard will be in luck.
In addition to the above 3 projects, the Penguin Chain @AbstractChain may also embrace Kaito. They place a higher emphasis on community contributors, and I previously received $PENGU worth $13,000 for my participation. So let's keep it up!
