Its been a wild ride, from getting banned, to coming back, to rasing 8 million dollars in 4 hours for a pre sale, then building this all out in less than a month. its been amazing and I couldnt of done it without all the amazing people who helped pull it all off along the way.
AND Thank you to the Degens who believed and have been along with me on this entire ride. I love you all.
With every new lauch @aipool_tee does, it will be slightly different and exciting to keep the meta fresh, and to keep people guessing.
So even if you miss out today, there will be more to come, with more fun twists and experiments.
I wish you all the best of the luck in everything!
Special thanks to: @WOMBO , @blockiosaurus@iandeborja@chelms34@meta_hess@degenmack , and of course @metaplex and @MeteoraAG for all the information, and help and effort to make this idea a reality so quickly.

“Crypto meets AI! Kaito built an AI-powered search post-ChatGPT 2022 to tackle crypto’s info gaps. Ready for the InfoFi era? 🚀💡
#Crypto#AI#InfoFi”
@_kaitoai
🚀 From China → UK (Citadel) → Seattle (Kaito) → Singapore. Left TradFi to trade crypto.
🤖 Crypto’s inefficiencies needed AI search. Built post-ChatGPT 2022.
💡 1.5-year bear market, struggled to monetize—until 2024 trade theses proved value.
@Punk9277 @_kaitoai
my 2.5hr interview with @KevinWSHPod, summarized in 50 points.
with some additional hints and details 👇
1/ life is summarized in 4 places - south of china (childhood), UK (teenage/adult/work), seattle (start of Kaito), singapore (now)
2/ most of my professional career at Citadel - trading equities 2017-late 2021 - believe it’s one of the most hyper-competitive places on earth
3/ loved Citadel for being purely meritocratic and results-driven - doesn’t matter who you are, where you come from, who you know
4/ quit Citadel in late 2021 to join Millennium - forced out of the market for 6-months due to non-compete, but used it to trade crypto full-time, one of the best times in my life
5/ realized the information inefficiency in crypto was unbearable
6/ the market’s momentum is also insane - mean reversion rarely works because markets can stay irrational longer than you can survive. understanding momentum in mindshare and sentiment is key
7/ couldn’t wait for others to build it - started Kaito
8/ 3 reasons for the name “Kaito”: a) our early engineers were anime fans, b) “AI” is in the name, c) Kaito means “sea” and “people” in Japanese - aligns with our mission of helping people navigate the sea of information
9/ moved from the UK to seattle for a bigger engineering talent pool - mobility is key for entrepreneurialship
10/ 6 months into building Kaito, chatgpt launched in nov 2022 - aha moment to rebuild search from the ground up
11/ while others focused on chat interfaces, we used LLM for the entire production pipeline - your AI is only as good as your data
12/ Kaito wasn’t all smooth sailing - we started during a 1.5-year bear market
13/ struggled with monetization at first - targeted the wrong users before launching the right features
14/ best decision was becoming more public - started writing trade theses using Kaito in jan 2024, and suddenly people realized what it could do
15/ adoption accelerated rapidly after that - looking back, the change was so quick it was almost unimaginable
16/ learned as a founder you must be your product’s biggest evangelist, everywhere
17/ broke even in jun 2024 - a big moment, but still early days
18/ Kaito’s goal isn’t being an alpha platform - it’s about fundamentally changing how people work
19/ since jun, we doubled down on helping project teams with growth and marketing
20/ memes and the attention economy gave us a huge tailwind
21/ believe valuation = attention x narrative - true for memes but also many other things in crypto
22/ attention has fundamental value
23/ in crypto, founders are most willing to pay for two things: liquidity and attention
24/ attention also ties to liquidity - it dictates how much people care
25/ why tokenize Kaito? a) our retail strategy, b) yaps is demand-pulled
26/ retail strategy isn’t a lite Kaito version - exploring a new model where everyone can participate
27/ yaps addresses the broken KOL model: complicated, ineffcient, opaque, exclusive, and lacking accountability
28/ Kaito’s KOL analytics revealed a market desire for reinvention
29/ we launched yapper leaderboard to solve these problems: simple, no middlemen, freely accessible, transparent, and merit-based
30/ yapper leaderboard isn’t the end
31/ believe there are 3 stages of information efficiency: a) disorganized info, b) AI distribution, c) market-driven distribution
32/ as a trader, I respect the market as the most efficient distribution model
33/ polymarket is a great example but tough to cover the long tail - AI fills that gap
34/ Kaito moved crypto from unorganized to AI-powered - next is market-driven efficiency, our InfoFi vision
35/ soon launching a market-driven yapper leaderboard launchpad where yappers decide how attention is distributed
36/ as market forces grow, Kaito’s role will naturally decrease, reducing centralized risks
37/ big prediction for 2025: yaps become a currency
38/ yaps = tokenized attention; account-level yaps = tokenized influence
39/ yaps is Kaito’s points program - many lessons from hyperliquid on distribution
40/ yaps is hard to earn, with strict anti-farming measures to protect the ecosystem
41/ farming peaked during xmas but died quickly - it not only doesn’t earn yaps but hurts reputations
42/ ideal state: people forget about yaps and focus on building their brand
43/ best way to describe Kaito is crypto’s distribution center, for info, attention, and capital - powered by AI
44/ Kaito is a hybrid software and crypto company, not so much of an analytics company
45/ believe the space moves forward when people think on first principles and push boundaries together
46/ hope for 2025: people realize Kaito’s vision and what we’re actually building - hoping for that aha moment
47/ yaps is highly expandable across other social media platforms and beyond crypto
48/ north star: everything we do should positively impact the industry
49/ one day, people may forget kaito, but the network we build will be our legacy
50/ Kaito can rise and fall - your brand is always your brand. don’t farm yaps - build your brand
Yap early, yap only, yap often.
@_kaitoai is connecting AI, attention and capital with Yaps.
Just claimed my social card and I'm accumulating Yap points in real-time.
