Original Title: "Non-KOLs Can Also Participate! How to Earn Project Airdrops through Writing, Based on Kaito?"

Original Author: KiKi, Biteye Junior Sister

In the past, when participating in airdrops, everyone only focused on the testnet and on-chain interactions. But now, with the rise of the "Yap-to-Earn" model, the opportunity has come for content creators!

This post will list 17 projects that are earning airdrops through Kaito! Ordinary users can also participate, so be sure to bookmark this.

01 Review: Well-Known Projects That Have Distributed Airdrops through Kaito

1.1 Project Overview

Over the past few months, some well-known projects have directly airdropped to creators through Kaito. The most representative ones include EigenLayer, Berachain, Movement, Story, Anime, and Vly. EigenLayer was the first to airdrop to the Twitter community using Kaito. Berachain later joined this trend and distributed 1.25 million $BERA to social contributors, clearly stating that users who have received social airdrop qualifications and hold a Kaito Yaps account will receive additional bonuses. The annual Big Hair Movement also joined Kaito in these two months and, based on the Kaito leaderboard ranking, rewarded users who have contributed to the Movement ecosystem.

Story's airdrop through Kaito includes Kaito Genesis NFT holders and high-quality Story-related content creators (Yappers), based on long-term contribution data since 2023, excluding short-term score-inflating users. It targets high-quality IP topic discussion participants selected through Kaito data.

Anime's airdrop through Kaito includes the top 1000 ANIME Yap ranked users and Kaito Genesis NFT holders.

Vly (vly.money) also airdropped 10,000 $Like to each of the top 1000 Yapper KOLs on the Kaito Yap Vly leaderboard.

This also confirms a trend:

In the future, Yap contributors to the Kaito ecosystem, especially those active at the top of the leaderboard, will become the primary target group for new project airdrops. If you want to receive similar airdrops, now is the best time to position yourself on the Kaito platform and increase your Yap influence.

1.2 Evaluation Criteria for Team Airdrops

The airdrop for Kaito's partner projects is mainly based on the Yap List airdrop. So how can a project enter the list? The core elements are roughly as follows:

· Content Quality: Originality, depth, and topic popularity of the content (such as technical analysis, investment logic analysis, etc.)

· Interaction Frequency: Number of interactions between tweets and KOL accounts, and the project's official account

· Reach: Likes, comments, retweets of the tweet, and personal follower base

· Strive to Enter Top 500-100: According to past rules, there is a greater chance of receiving the airdrop for projects in the top 1000 of the list

02 What other pre-TGE projects is Kaito worth paying attention to?

Looking ahead, there are still many high-quality unreleased projects on Kaito's pre-TGE that are worth paying attention to. These projects may all use Kaito's Yap List as one of the airdrop criteria, so early participation is recommended:

· 0G @0G_labs: 0G is a modular AI blockchain with a scalable, programmable DA layer for AI dapps. Content can be published on the technical advantages of a modular AI blockchain for in-depth analysis.

· Corn @use_corn: Corn uses Bitcoin as Gas for an Ethereum L2 network, raised $6.7 million in seed funding (led by Polychain). Articles can be written on Corn's on-chain interactions, and the analysis of integrating the Bitcoin ecosystem with L2.

· Defi App @defidotapp: Combining the powerful features of decentralized finance (DeFi) with the usability of traditional finance. With just one mobile app, users can buy and sell various digital assets, swap tokens across chains, and even trade stocks. Tracking project updates in advance and publishing content related to potential use cases and technical architecture is recommended.

· Eclipse @EclipseFND: A customizable Rollup solution, also backed by Polychain. Content can include on-chain interaction strategies for Eclipse, comparative analysis of modular Rollup with other L2 technologies, and ecosystem NFT analysis.

· Humanity @Humanityprot: Humanity Protocol is a anti-sybil blockchain network that offers developers a unique human identity verification mechanism and gives users full ownership of data and identity. Content can include discussions on on-chain data privacy protection, future trends in decentralized identities (DID), and more.

· MegaETH @megaeth_labs: Building high-throughput, low-latency EVM-compatible L2s. Can provide insights into the current state of ETH ecosystem scalability, specific MegaETH scalability solutions, and technical advantages.

· Mitosis @MitosisOrg: A liquidity protocol for the modular era, aiming to redefine cross-chain liquidity. Will release analyses of cross-chain technical architectures and comparative evaluations of existing cross-chain solutions.

· Monad @monad_xyz: A high-performance EVM-compatible Layer1 network, with $2.25 billion in funding and a $30 billion valuation. Can delve into Monad's technical strengths, ecosystem project progress, and publish investment value assessments.

· Multipli @multiplifi: A ZK-based multi-chain yield protocol that allows users to earn reliable yield on stable assets, native assets, or even traditional non-yield assets (such as BTC, MATIC, PAXG, etc.). Can release content on how ZK technology enhances the security and yield of cross-chain yield protocols.

· OpenLedger @OpenledgerHQ: A data blockchain designed for AI, providing a decentralized trust infrastructure to create Specialized Language Models (SLM). Can publish in-depth content analyzing the differences and advantages between Specialized Language Models (SLM) and traditional Language Models (LLM).

· PARADEX @tradeparadex: A cryptocurrency derivatives exchange and the first application chain on Starknet. You can write guides on using trading products, trends in the derivatives market, and trading strategy analysis.

· Union @union_build: An efficient interoperability protocol that connects all blockchains and rollups in any ecosystem. You can provide an analysis of the Union protocol's cross-chain interoperability mechanism, compare Union's advantages with other cross-chain protocols (such as LayerZero), and share specific use cases.

All of the above projects have joined the Kaito ecosystem. By publishing original analysis, technical comparisons, interactive tutorials, and other high-quality content, they can challenge Kaito's leaderboard and potentially receive airdrop rewards from future projects.

03 Will There Be More Official Kaito Airdrops in the Future?

Very likely! Previously, Kaito returned all the proceeds from the Genesis NFT totaling 150 ETH to the community, with 0.2 ETH each for ranks 1-500 and 0.1 ETH each for ranks 501-1000. In the future, there will be long-term creator incentives (7.5% share) to reward high-ranking creators. Additionally, the platform's native token, $KAITO, may also be airdropped through Yaps rankings.

Kaito has specially reserved a portion of token rewards to reward early active participants in the Yapper Leaderboard and Yapper Launchpad ecosystem cooperation projects. These projects include Berachain, MegaETH, Story, Anime, Corn, and others. The Kaito team will collaborate with the teams of the mentioned projects to distribute these rewards together, ensuring that these rewards are ultimately delivered to specific users. This means creators may receive airdrops from Kaito and the project teams.

Therefore, by continuing to operate Yaps points, users can not only receive airdrops from collaborative projects but also benefit from incentives on the Kaito platform itself.

04 Summary: The Spring of Creators Has Arrived

In the past few years, the focus has been on on-chain interactions and airdrops, but now Twitter creators are experiencing an unprecedented "Write to Earn" golden age. It's not just for KOLs; through Kaito, ordinary content creators can also monetize their content and realize value without letting their traffic go to waste.

Currently, the Kaito platform has been adopted by several leading projects as a key criterion for airdrop distribution and is gradually becoming an industry benchmark. The era of creators is just beginning, and you might be the next one to receive a generous airdrop.
