ShillOS
ShillOS pays people to post about a token on X. A project opens a campaign with a reward pool and posting rules. Anyone with a linked X account can post, submit the link and collect points, and when the campaign ends the top participants split the pool by points.
ShillOS also offers KOL bribes: direct paid offers to individual X accounts, funded from a DAO treasury or with your own tokens.
Taking part#
- Link your accounts. Connect your wallet and link your X account on your Laika profile. The X connection is read-only: Laika can read your profile and posts but can never post for you.
- Pick a campaign. The Public tab lists live campaigns with their reward pool, deadline and requirements.
- Post on X. Post from your linked account and include the ticker, hashtags and mentions the campaign asks for.
- Submit the link. Paste your post's link in the campaign. It is accepted if it comes from your linked account, includes every requirement and is on topic. You can submit several different posts, each one once per campaign.
- Collect points. Each accepted post earns points. Its engagement is refreshed regularly until the campaign ends, so points can keep growing.
- Get paid. When the campaign ends, the top participants (the project sets how many, 100 by default) share the reward pool in proportion to their points. Rewards go to your linked wallet after the campaign closes. Without a linked wallet you cannot be paid.
The Participated tab shows every campaign you joined, with your rank, points and estimated or paid reward. The leaderboard shows the top posts and participants of each campaign.
How scoring works#
Better posts earn more points. Each post gets two scores:
- Quality. An AI review grades originality, relevance and tone and checks for spam, with a small bonus for each requirement met. Posts are graded from A+ to F.
- Engagement. Likes, reposts (counted twice), quotes (three times) and replies (half), on a log scale, with a small bonus for posts with media.
The post score is 30% quality and 70% engagement, multiplied by how relevant the post is to the campaign. Your X score, a reputation score for your account shown on your profile, then multiplies it: an account with a higher X score earns more points for the same post. Every accepted post earns at least 1 point.
Running a public campaign#
For now, the token's creator creates campaigns, from the token page's Marketing tab or from ShillOS. Each campaign is funded from the DAO treasury with a "Create a ShillOS campaign" proposal (see GovernOS), and each funding proposal pays for one campaign. The reward can be DOGE or a token the treasury holds.
The creator sets the campaign's name, brief, required ticker, hashtags, mentions and keywords, its duration and the number of winners. Laika reviews each campaign before it goes live. Opening campaign creation to everyone is planned.
KOL bribes#
KOL bribes are live. You can create a direct paid offer for any X (Twitter) @handle.
Create an offer#
- Choose the creator. Enter the X @handle you want to incentivize.
- Choose the funding source. Fund the offer from the DAO treasury or deposit the incentive yourself.
- Set the terms. Choose the reward token and amount, the offer's duration before it expires, and the ticker the creator must mention in their post.
- Fund the escrow. The reward tokens are held in escrow pending a claim under the offer's terms.
Claim an offer#
- Connect your X account. Use the account targeted by the offer.
- Post the required ticker. Publish a post on X mentioning the ticker specified in the offer.
- Submit your post. Paste the post's link into the offer on Laika.
- Wait four hours. After submission, a four-hour waiting period applies before you can claim, to help prevent manipulation.
- Claim your incentive. Once the waiting period has passed and the offer's requirements are met, claim the reward from escrow.
Plain-language notes#
- Laika never gets posting rights on your accounts.
- Public campaign rewards depend on your final rank and are never guaranteed. KOL offers specify a reward amount that can be claimed once their requirements are met.
- Creators are responsible for following X's rules and any ad disclosure rules where they live.
