The AI encryption search engine Kaito may become one of the largest airdrops in 2025.

Kaito, as an AI-driven encryption search engine, is expected to become one of the largest Airdrop projects by 2025. This prediction is mainly based on the following aspects:

First of all, Kaito has given back to the community through the Genesis NFT minting event and plans to redistribute the minting fees to the first 1000 Yaps users. This indicates that Kaito is actively taking steps to incentivize its community participation.

Secondly, Kaito is leading the development of "InfoFi" (Information Finance). The closest concept to InfoFi currently is the Arkham protocol, which conducted a large-scale Airdrop last year and now has a market value of 536 million USD. Considering the purity of Kaito's mechanism design, its market value could be even higher.

Although Kaito's ultimate goal is not yet clear, it is evident that significant plans are brewing. Currently, earning Yaps points is considered one of the most attractive ways to participate in the encryption field, especially considering that no cost input is required.

Kaito Yaps is the core of the entire ecosystem. Users will receive Yaps (i.e., points) rewards if their tweets are deemed "high quality." However, how to effectively earn Yaps remains an unresolved issue. Some users with a large number of followers and social media influence may not necessarily have high Yaps points.

Due to the confidentiality of the specific algorithm (to prevent abuse), this guide is primarily based on information shared by Kaito officials, actual test results, and observations of small accounts that successfully accumulate Yaps. It is worth noting that some small accounts have earned more Yaps than larger accounts, so do not underestimate your opportunities.

Starting from basic principles, Kaito provides some insights on Yaps, which we can analyze one by one:

Proof of Work: The amount of content related to encryption

Kaito will not reward irrelevant small talk or casual remarks. They aim to encourage high-quality, encryption-related content.

Suggested Operation:

• Post multiple tweets daily, focusing on encryption topics, ensuring to include relevant keywords.
• Despite the challenges of continuously creating content, you can share recent learning insights, comment on current events, discuss perspectives on different protocols, and more.

Proof of Transaction: Real Participation Based on Reputation-Weighted Influence Analysis

Kaito's algorithm seems to be similar to Google's PageRank system, emphasizing the concept of "smart followers." Accounts with more high-quality followers typically have greater influence.

Suggested Operation:

• Create content that can attract "smart accounts" to participate, such as real cases, unique insights, data analysis, or trending information.
• For small accounts, you can focus on writing insightful comments to encourage other users to respond.
• Consider presenting opposing viewpoints to spark discussions and debates, attracting more user participation.

Proof of Insight: Weighted by Relevance, Information Volume, Originality, etc.

Kaito prefers content that provokes thought and drives development in the encryption field, rather than merely eye-catching posts.

Suggested Operation:

• Write in-depth content about specific protocols.
• Follow current trending topics, such as Hype, Pengu, and Virtuals.
• For small accounts, consider focusing on niche markets and becoming an "expert" in a specific area or protocol.

Small Account Strategy

For small accounts with fewer than 300 fans, the following strategies can be adopted:

• Actively respond to other users' content and create an interactive target account list.
• Focus on writing content for specific protocols, especially those that are less popular.
• Present controversial viewpoints and defend them.
• Study the Yap algorithm and learn from the experiences of small accounts that have successfully accumulated Yaps.
• Choose a niche market and establish a professional image.

Platform Algorithm Optimization

To increase content exposure, you may consider:

• Add images or videos to each tweet.
• Avoid directly adding the original tweet link; it can be published as a subsequent tweet.
• Reply to each comment from users on your post.
• Improve content quality to ensure that readers can learn new knowledge from it.
• Support your views with specific data and examples.
• Try different content formats, such as long articles, threads, or single long tweets.
• Maintain a genuine humanized writing style.

Other considerations

• Make sure to link your EVM wallet address to the Kaito dashboard before the snapshot deadline on January 1, 2024.
• You can earn extra Yaps through referrals, but avoid excessive promotion.

Despite some controversies surrounding the Yap program, such as the potential decline in content quality or uncertainty in Airdrop returns, it has also brought positive impacts to the encryption community. It encourages users to improve content quality and fosters broader communication and participation. Whether or not one ultimately receives an Airdrop, participating in this program helps build connections and develop personal influence, creating more opportunities for the future.
