Kaito: An AI-Powered Search Engine for Crypto
Kaito is an AI-based data analytics platform and search engine designed to optimize research and trend monitoring in the crypto space. Through its “InfoFi” network, it aims to redistribute attention and capital more fairly and transparently in the blockchain ecosystem.
Its native token, KAITO, plays a central role in this economy by enabling decentralized governance, facilitating market alignment, and rewarding content creators on social networks known as “Yappers.”
The Rise of the Yapper Phenomenon
In recent months, Kaito Yaps has gained momentum on Crypto Twitter, using AI algorithms to measure the attention value generated by posts. This system allows Kaito to sell engagement data to crypto projects seeking trend analysis while rewarding creators based on their influence.
The “Yapper Leaderboard,” a public dashboard, ranks the most influential users in real time. According to initial estimates, points earned on the platform could be worth between $5 and $20, depending on the fully diluted valuation (FDV) of the token. KAITO is currently trading at around $1, with a FDV of one billion dollars.
Between Enthusiasm and Skepticism
While the project is generating excitement, especially among content creators and SocialFi enthusiasts, it is not without criticism. Some have criticized the rushed launch, particularly the late release of tokenomics details.
Influential figures accuse Kaito of degrading the quality of Crypto Twitter by pushing users to perform for the algorithm. Others consider Kaito an overvalued project with no real utility and predict its collapse within the next six months.
