You've seen the Mantle Yapper Leaderboard on Kaito, yapped about Mantle, joined the Mantle X and Discord communities and nominated your favorite yappers. Now it's time for the real deal — 150,000 $MNT awarded to top yappers on Mantle's leaderboard across 3 themed phases that will have you yappin' all day long.

And psssssst some special Boys PFPs may also join the prize table — only the best for those who have been diligently yapping about Mantle without fail. Here's how you can win yourself some MNT and other perks.

How It Works

The Yapper Leaderboard has been a true test of quality engagement and content-sharing on X/Twitter and since the launch of Mantle's Yapper Leaderboard, users have been pulling out all the stops to create unique content that will help them rise above the rest. We've witnessed the community's commitment to creating Mantle Yaps, and there's no better time than now to reveal just what's in store for Mantle's top yappers.

Yappers will be judged across 3 phases. Each phase will distribute 50,000 $MNT in rewards to top yappers.

Phase 1 | March 18, 2025 to April 16, 2025

• Step 1: Yap about Mantle

Any and all quality Mantle-related yaps will be counted during this period, but some focus topics yappers can consider are: (1) Mantle & MNT Opportunities (2) Function BTC's new rebrand (3) mETH Yield Opportunities (4) Mantle Network Architecture (5) Our Integration With EigenDA and Upcoming ZK Roadmap

• Step 2: Watch yourself rank on Mantle's Yapperboard

Head on over to https://yaps.kaito.ai/mantle and check out the leaderboard. The more quality content you post about Mantle on X/Twitter, the higher you'll go. There's no hard and fast rule for ranking on the leaderboard, but here are some guidelines:

1. Make sure you yap often, don't spam, and create content and discussions that are unique and valuable to the community
2. Interact with other yappers for a boost
3. Get yapping tips from yappers who rank at the top of the leaderboard, including yappers from the Mantle team and join the Mantle X Community to get some inspiration from the members there

Tip: Mantle mentions in images are counted too! Be it a meme, graphic, image, infographic or slideshow, if you communicate better with visual collaterals, here's your chance to do it and have it counted towards your yaps.

• Step 3: Be in the top 50 ranks by the end of the tranche

The top 50 yappers will be rewarded based on tiered distribution, with the highest ranked yapper eligible for the biggest reward — the exact distribution will be unveiled later.

Extra Weekly Rewards: Plus, beyond looking at the leaderboard ranking, we'll also be keeping an eye out for those who are actively participating in the Mantle yapper community, and these individuals will receive exclusive access to more mini activities that can earn you more $MNT weekly, on top of the allocated rewards pool.

• 5,000 $MNT Pool for Top Long-Time Yappers*

Yappers who have supported us and raked up Mantled Yaps since the launch of the Mantle Yapper Leaderboard, we see you! The top 15 yappers cumulatively from the period of Jan. 21, 2025 to March 17, 2025 will enjoy the exclusive benefit of access to an additional 5,000 $MNT pool. Rewards will be distributed on a tiered basis, to be revealed at the end of the phase as well.
