been reflecting on this a lot recently - both as an observer and as an operator. i do agree with @ajwarner90 here . i think the obsession with buybacks probably comes from 1/ historically widespread poor alignment and governance, and 2/ a general focus on token price management.
The least serious thing about the crypto industry today is the obsession with buybacks by purportedly high growth protocols. Itβs actively discouraging the interest of growth capital (which is non-existent today) for the hope that the existing liquid funds will value these.

really cool to spotlight Kaito's stakers and yapybara holders . social brings human temperature to a bunch of blockchain addresses.
Newly added to Kaito - the Holder Highlight!. We've now set out two dedicated sections for both $KAITO stakers and Yapybara holders. Showcasing our community across crypto - with Yaps and Smart Follower counts visible for each person - not displaying specific holdings. With

one thing that's pretty cool about the our proof-of-pfp check is . it also accounts for small variations of the pfp . as long as you actually hold it onchain.
The new additions to our leaderboards continue π. We've now added "Proof of PFP" as a contribution multiplier - for those rocking a PFP from the project's dedicated NFT collection. Rolled out now with Moonbirds - and coming to more next week, with Yapybaras next up!. Newly

the teams that are building for the long-term have two things in common . - a clear sense of direction and purpose . - the discipline to simply show up every day. it might feel mundane to some. but over time, these are the teams that will stand out and win. long consistency.

one thing that always amazes me is. nft holders can hold something for years without even the thought of selling (myself included). the culture side of things is really very different. and thatβd be how we think about yapy too.
Wow. @moonbirds is everywhere. @KaitoAI is the best place to yap. Bought my first bird 945 days ago, then more for the whole family. Be honest, it was not a good holding experience until @spencer bought @moonbirds. It is the time for long holder to win. @justinweb33 @mdudas

onchain is the next natural evolution for Kaito. starting with NFTs, and soon expanding to others, covering usage, holdings, pfps, and more. welcome to the new era.
The @moonbirds leaderboard is now live! π¦. And for the first time, we're now integrating onchain holdings as boosts to better represent the holder community. A first step in integrating onchain metrics on Kaito - with integrations also coming to the our own leaderboard too.
