Claps

Claps are short-form, high-signal posts that allow users to express opinions, react to narratives, or join social conversations happening across the crypto space.

Clapo’s Clap layer is powered by Kaito AI. Instead of sourcing activity from an in-house feed, Clapo pulls trending topics, influencer commentary, and ecosystem-specific chatter directly from Kaito’s data engine.

This ensures that every Clap is context-rich, time-relevant, and ranked based on onchain and social resonance.

🔍 How Claps Work

1. Surfaced by Kaito

   • Claps reflect active topics and signals from the crypto ecosystem.

   • Data is filtered and clustered by Kaito to ensure relevance.

2. User Engagement

   • Users reply, react, and engage with Claps in real time.

   • Activity generates signal weight tracked via Kaito’s infrastructure.

3. Signal-Based XP

   • Clapo does not use a local XP counter.

   • XP and mindshare are derived from user activity tracked by Kaito (likes, replies, quote replies, etc).

4. Leaderboard Visibility

   • Based on Kaito-derived Mindshare scores.

   • Refreshed frequently to reflect recent engagement.

🧠 Clapo Leaderboard Metrics

Clapo features a leaderboard that reflects the most influential users in the attention economy. The board is broken down into three key mindshare categories:

Column Name	Description
Total Mindshare	User’s total influence across all Kaito-powered platforms
Clapo Mindshare	User’s weighted activity and impact within the Clapo interface
Sui Mindshare	User’s weight within Sui-specific trends and conversations
24h Change	Delta in Clapo and Sui mindshare over the last 24 hours

These metrics are generated by Kaito’s LLM-enhanced data layer that processes public sentiment, response velocity, and thread propagation.

🧬 Signal Surfaces That Power Clapo

Activity	Signal Impact
Posting or Replying to a Clap	✔️ High
Getting Likes or Reposts	✔️ High
Appearing in Trending Threads	✔️ Boosted
Mentioned in Quotes or Mentions	✔️ Multiplied
Responding Early to Trends	✔️ Priority

These signal actions feed into Kaito’s XP engine, which then returns leaderboard positions, trend ranks, and topical clusters back to Clapo.

🛠 Powered by Kaito

• No in-house activity feed — Clapo relies fully on Kaito’s signal pipelines.

• No custom XP ledger — All XP/mindshare is derived externally.

• Realtime adaptation — As narratives shift in the broader ecosystem, Clapo surfaces new topics algorithmically.

Claps make Clapo a dynamic reputation layer — where the most engaging voices rise to the top, powered by Kaito’s intelligence stack.
