Kaito has become a common word in Crypto Twitter. But if you think it's just about earning points for participating, you're only seeing the tip of the iceberg
Kaito is a platform powered by artificial intelligence (AI) that helps projects, communities, and creators better organize attention, build community, and amplify their impact on Web3.
Yes, it includes yaps. But Kaito is much more than that.
More than yaps: the heart of Kaito is InfoFi.
Kaito was born with a clear philosophy: to change how attention is distributed on the internet.
“Kaito’s core philosophy revolves around the concept of InfoFi, where market forces — not centralized algorithms — determine how attention is distributed.”
— Bankless
In traditional social media, algorithms decide what we see, often creating information bubbles and unfair outcomes.
Kaito proposes the opposite: letting the community decide which topics and voices deserve attention.
This is where yaps come in—they’re more than just participation: they’re social signals that help surface relevant content.
Why does Kaito matter?
In Web3, the noise is constant: tokens, launches, debates, memes, and more.
Kaito answers a critical question: How do we discover valuable content in a sea of information?
The platform seeks to:
- ✅ Improve how we discover relevant content
- ✅ Recognize and reward attention as a valuable resource
- ✅ Connect communities, projects, and analysts in real time
- ✅ Become the social and intelligent layer of Web3
What are Yaps and why does everyone use them?
In Kaito, people don’t comment anymore—they Yap.
Yaps are points you earn by interacting on X (Twitter), such as replying or engaging in relevant conversations. These points are used to rank you on the leaderboard and to calculate potential rewards like airdrops. For example, the number of Yaps you had was one of the factors that determined how much you received in the Kaito airdrop. Currently, several projects officially integrated with Kaito are starting to use Yaps as a criterion to distribute rewards.
How does it work?
- You participate in the crypto conversation
- You generate signals for Kaito’s algorithm.
- You build your reputation as a yapper.
And how do you participate in Kaito?

Frequently Asked Questions about Yaps
Frequently Asked Questions about the Yaps program
How do I earn Yap points?
Earning Yaps is about participating genuinely, relevantly, and with quality in crypto conversations. Yaps are awarded based on a combination of:
- Relevance to the crypto world
- Authentic participation, weighted by reputation
- Original, focused, and valuable conversations (quality matters more than quantity)
Yap points are NOT designed to be earned easily or based solely on volume, as that would be very easy to manipulate.
Does it only count when I mention Kaito or specific projects in the Kaito community rankings?
No, all relevant crypto discussions qualify. No particular project or topic is given more weight.
Do regional languages carry the same weight as English?
Yes. Kaito uses a state-of-the-art language model (LLM) that understands regional languages. Yaps are already being awarded for content that is not in English, and there are no differences in weighting.
Additionally, we are currently working on deploying regional models that better capture cultural nuances.
Does my 𝕏 account need to be permanently connected to “Kaito AI” to earn points?
No. Only an initial authentication of your 𝕏 account (when you register in Yaps) is required to verify ownership.
After that, you can accumulate Yap points through your activities on 𝕏 without needing to keep the connection active or constantly reconnect.
I’m having trouble with the Captcha, what can I do?
Disable your ad blocker if you have it enabled, as it may interfere with the Captcha functioning.
Is there a delay between tweets and earning Yap points?
Yes, each tweet has a time window to earn Yaps.
This reflects how content spreads on Crypto Twitter: tweets usually have visibility for 24 hours before their impact significantly decreases.
How does Kaito determine if a 𝕏 account represents a person or an entity?
The AI analyzes attributes such as the bio, username, description, profile picture, and tweets to estimate whether an account represents an entity or a person, based on how it is generally perceived by the public.
Does Kaito use an anti-spam filter?
Yes. Kaito extensively uses LLM models to exclude low-effort content, including spam.
Do I need to tag Kaito in my tweets for them to count?
No, it is not necessary to tag Kaito.
Are articles taken into account in the evaluation system?
Yes.
Why do I have 0 Yaps?
If you are not accumulating Yaps despite your activity on X, it may be due to one or more of the following reasons:
- We evaluate impact weighted by reputation, not just impressions or interactions. If your tweet doesn’t reach a threshold of social engagement, it may not earn points.
- Our LLM model may have considered that your content is not original or relevant enough.
- Using buzzwords without genuine context or depth is not considered relevant.
I’m getting authentication errors when trying to log into Kaito Yaps, what should I do?
It may be due to high traffic load causing verification limits on 𝕏. Try refreshing the page after 15 minutes, using a different browser, or trying again later.
Why aren’t my referral points showing up?
People who used your invitation link must start earning Yap points before you are credited referral points.
Please note that referral points are updated every hour.
Where can I find my invitation link and social card?
After logging in, go to your profile at: https://yaps.kaito.ai/user
Click on “My Social Card” at the top right to see a popup with your invitation link, your social card, or the option to share it directly on 𝕏.
How will my wallet be used in Yaps and with whom will it be shared?
You can enter your wallet address on the platform. Wallet lists may be used by Kaito or shared with partners (anonymously, without linking to your 𝕏 account) only for reward distribution purposes.
Examples:
- Project X requests a list of wallets of the top 1000 Yappers for their own rewards.
- Project Y requests a list of wallets to reward voters in their Launchpad.
- You can delete or change your wallet at any time.
How do I add, change, or delete my wallet in Yaps?
Use the “Input / Change Your Wallet” button.
How is the Total Yaps measured?
It is the sum of your points earned directly plus those earned through referrals.
What are Smart Followers?
They are Crypto Twitter accounts with high interconnection within the crypto social graph.
The CT social graph is maintained dynamically and objectively through algorithms.
What is Mindshare?
It is a metric that measures the prominence or level of attention that a specific project has within the overall crypto market.
Conclusion
Kaito is not just an app to "earn points." It is an infrastructure that proposes a new logic to discover, amplify, and reward content in Web3.
Yapping is only one part. What matters is that attention turns into reputation, and that opens new opportunities in launches, airdrops, collaborations, and more.
