Web3 Information Platform Kaito: Building Attention Economy Ecosystem

Kaito is a Web3 information platform dedicated to solving the problem of information fragmentation in the crypto world. The platform collects and organizes information from various data sources in real-time through an AI-driven search engine and information network. By utilizing large language models and semantic understanding technology, Kaito transforms unstructured information into instant insights, including sentiment analysis, keyword tracking, and more. Additionally, Kaito has launched an "attention tokenization" mechanism to quantify users' real influence on social media and incentivize the community to create and share high-quality information.

Kaito was founded in 2022 and completed two rounds of financing in 2023, raising a total of $10.8 million. To incentivize community participation and reward valuable information contributions, Kaito launched the Kaito Connect network and the Yaps points system. The Yaps program is Kaito's core incentive mechanism, encouraging users to post high-quality crypto-related content on social platforms. The system uses AI to assess post quality, interaction depth, and content relevance, rewarding genuine high-quality contributions.

Kaito has also built content incentives and project selection mechanisms through the Yapper leaderboard and Launchpad. Users can earn rankings by publishing high-quality crypto content, with the leaderboard covering the overall ranking, AI topic ranking, and exclusive rankings for each project. The community can vote through the Launchpad to decide which new projects make the list, and those who hold Yap points or Smart Followers can participate.

Kaito Connect is an AI-based InfoFi information network that promotes information sharing and transparency through interconnected products and frameworks. Any user can participate and share crypto-related information to earn corresponding value shares. The network includes four types of participants: creators, regular users, brands, and platforms, and aims to fairly distribute rewards among these four parties.

The calculation rules for Yaps points comprehensively consider factors such as posting frequency, interaction performance, content semantics, and originality. Users can earn Yaps points by employing deep interaction strategies and writing in-depth content. Even small accounts with few followers can surpass well-known opinion leaders in rankings by publishing high-quality content.

Kaito's voting mechanism revolves around the Yapper Launchpad, with the core focus on distributing influence through holding and participation. Voting is divided into Yapper votes and Holder votes, where Holder votes account for 75% and Yapper community votes account for 25%. The system encourages long-term locking and stable support through time weighting and "holding scores."

Currently, there are multiple popular activities on the Kaito platform, such as INFINEX, Huma Finance, and Newton. These activities attract users to create content, recommend others to use the platform, and participate in community interactions through different reward mechanisms and ways to participate.

Overall, Kaito provides opinion leaders with the opportunity to amplify their influence and generate revenue through its innovative information ecosystem, while also allowing project parties to more accurately identify key creators and design interactive mechanisms. Although ordinary users also have the chance to participate in earning points, the overall operational threshold is relatively high, requiring a continuous investment of time to manage accounts. Compared to the past methods of participating in a single project testnet or trading to obtain airdrops, the Kaito model has a higher cost and participation difficulty for retail investors, and it incentivizes long-term content creators more.
