We’re expanding how we measure creator contributions on Kaito Studio. Starting with the next Katalyst campaigns, three additional signals will help determine rewards alongside mindshare, sign-ups and other campaign criteria: - The official X verified home timeline impressions - Verified X followers - Aura Together, these give projects a fuller picture of creators’ reach and audience quality. Set up and verify ↓

Pull up a seat in the Creator Lounge. We want to hear from you: how your campaigns are going, what’s working, and what you’d like to see next on Studio. Join us today at 18:00 UTC. Set a reminder ↓

A trading thesis carries more context when you know who’s behind it: their experience, connections and track record. @Punk9277 explains why the social graph matters as investors increasingly form convictions on X. That’s part of the vision behind Kaito Pulse and Aura: connecting what people build, trade and back with their social identity.

A closer look at Kaito Select in practice. @jumperapp’s campaign attracted 2,065 applications, with 62 creators publishing 119 eligible posts. Together, they generated 764K+ impressions at an $18.90 CPM. The full breakdown on @KaitoStudio_ ↓

For $KAITO stakers who also participated in the Axis creator campaign, here’s how to claim your rewards ↓ The claim page shows rewards for the connected wallet only. If both allocations use the same wallet, you can claim your Staker Allocation and Creator Allocation without switching accounts. If they use different wallets, claim with one first, disconnect, then select the other account in your wallet extension and reconnect to claim the remaining allocation.

A new Katalyst campaign with @bagel_win is live, with 8,800 USDC in rewards for creators. Bagel brings Polymarket markets to mobile, with one-tap copying of top predictors. Full terms and applications on Kaito Studio ↓

The trading floor is increasingly wherever investors form their convictions. Today, much of that happens on social media. A single thesis can reach millions of people who can immediately trade on it, particularly in sectors where retail attention is concentrated. @Punk9277 explains why this changes how we should think about market influence, using @citrini's AI report as an example.

An important update for $KAITO stakers: we’ve refreshed the Ecosystem Airdrops interface and introduced registration for each airdrop. Last year, around half of staker allocations went unclaimed, so going forward, allocations will be shared among eligible stakers who register for each airdrop. Stake or hold YT-sKAITO, register before the deadline, and claim once the campaign ends, subject to eligibility.

That's a wrap on @TOKEN2049. Our founder @Punk9277 took the main stage with a simple thesis: social media is becoming the new global trading floor. More people can access markets, more research happens in the open, and the distance between an idea and a trade keeps shrinking. The conversations that shape collective belief increasingly move markets. Telling signal from noise is the hard part, and it is the exact problem Kaito has been building for. It is why we have been expanding access to trading intelligence, helping teams find the right creators through @KaitoStudio_, and tying real activity to identity through Pulse and Aura. Across the week, the mood matched the thesis. Founders are building for product-market fit and real usage rather than rushing to a TGE. RWAs and tokenisation ran through every conversation, and the suits were out in force, showing once again that institutions are no longer watching from the sidelines. Thank you to everyone who came to find us in Singapore. We are building toward some big things, and we will have more to show soon.

Smart follower surge: @Supertake The AI investing product grew its smart followers significantly in the past nine days. It turns plain-English market theses into portfolios, with trades placed through users’ existing brokerage accounts.

$VVV now ranks second in crypto x AI mindshare on Kaito, ahead of $TAO and behind only $NEAR. @AskVenice's share of the category’s conversation rose from 2.5% on October 3 to 14% today - nearly a 6x increase in two days.

Our founder @Punk9277 is joining @TOKEN2049 for a keynote on Thursday, October 8. Catch him talking about how social media is becoming the new global trading floor on the Bit Digital Stage, Level 5 from 11:15-11:30 AM SGT.
