Oops, we innovated again.
We’re launching the Brevis Yapper Leaderboard on Kaito to reward the influential voices that shape our story, like many other projects do. Standard playbook: recognize your biggest supporters, give them tokens, everyone’s happy.
But we can’t help ourselves. We looked at how these campaigns actually work and thought, “This could be better.”
So we ended up with a ZK-powered system that enhanced the entire paradigm. At TGE, Brevis will allocate a significant token airdrop to top yappers on the leaderboard, ranked by their final mindshare scores that factor in both social contribution and ZK-verified on-chain behavior with 100% privacy protection.
How We Got Here
The plan was simple: launch on Kaito, let their mindshare algorithm rank our best yappers, allocate tokens at TGE. Done.
But then we started thinking about what “best yappers” actually means. Is it the person with the most followers? The loudest voice? The most retweets?
Or should it be the person who’s been building in crypto since 2017, actively using DeFi protocols, and actually holding tokens long-term?
Most campaigns can’t reward the latter without asking people to dox their wallets. They need you to prove you’re an OG by connecting your address and showing everyone your portfolio.
We can prove it with zero-knowledge proofs. We do it in a way that allows you to prove to the world that “I am an OG holder of ETH since 2018” without revealing your wallet address. So why wouldn’t we?
Our Innovation: Two Parts, Maximum Rewards
What started as a standard yapping campaign turned into something different:
Part 1: Pure Social Mindshare Quality content and social influence determine your ranking using Kaito’s mindshare algorithm. Pretty standard stuff, but executed on the platform that rewards real influence over follower counts.
Part 2: ZK-Powered Multipliers Prove you’re an OG, DeFi expert, or diamond hands holder with ZK proofs. Get multipliers on your score without revealing which wallet you own.
Eligible multipliers include but are not limited to:
• Brevis ecosystem users – users of Brevis ecosystem applications like Linea Ignition, Usual, Euler, OpenEden, Celer Network, QuickSwap, Thena, Aster and more
• OG – early crypto adoption
• DeFi adept – diverse DeFi experience
• Diamond hands – long-term token holding
The Brevis Yapper Leaderboard will be launched with social mindshare first, and ZK-powered multipliers will be added at a later stage once our integration with Kaito is completed.
How Private Multipliers Actually Work
During Phase 2, our system generates a ZK proof that you deserve multipliers based on your on-chain history. The proof gets verified, multipliers get applied, and your privacy stays intact.
The ZK proof verifies three things:
- You own an Ethereum wallet that qualifies for the multiplier requirement.
- Your Kaito wallet is associated with this specific Ethereum wallet.
- The multiplier calculation is correct based on on-chain DeFi and other behaviors
Nobody can see which wallet belongs to which Kaito account. Not Kaito, not even us. The entire ZK Proof is end-to-end privacy-preserving.
This Matters Beyond Our Campaign
We solved our own problem, but we also demonstrated something bigger: privacy-preserving InfoFi actually works.
You can reward real builders without compromising privacy. You can verify expertise without exposing wallets. You can create fair systems without surveillance.
Most reward systems make you choose: stay private or get rewarded for your real contributions. This campaign gives you both.
Projects often assume they have to choose between fairness and privacy. Turns out you can have both if you use the right infrastructure.
The Brevis Way
Our goal has always been to build ZK infrastructure that makes smart contracts intelligent. Yet, we also can’t resist making reward systems more intelligent too.
This campaign shows what’s possible when you stop accepting trade-offs that don’t need to exist. Quality content matters. On-chain behavior matters. Privacy matters.
All at the same time.
It’s almost like we planned this level of innovation. Almost.
The Brevis Yapper Leaderboard is live on Kaito. Join Phase 1 now, Phase 2 with ZK multipliers coming soon.
