Saw an interesting phenomenon on the Kaito Yappers Leaderboard regarding Chinese crypto Twitter and the Western crypto community.
💡 Brief summary:
Eastern CT = Infrastructure, automation, capital efficiency
Western CT = Vibes, user experience, speed plays
After diving into the latest Kaito Pre-TGE Mindshare Arena heatmap, I noticed a clear trend—crypto spaces in English-speaking and Chinese-speaking communities are evolving in completely different directions.
Top 3 in the Chinese-speaking community👇
@Sidekick_Labs: Extremely popular, likely due to its "smart agent automation" narrative, aligning with developers' needs for modular, invisible robot-like agents, especially appealing to groups focused on localized AI infrastructure.
@humafinance: Rising with the narrative of Real World Assets (RWA), focusing on building low-collateral lending markets.
@satlayer: Emerging as an L2 infrastructure and AI-powered network, its breakthroughs in zero-knowledge proof models and computational power markets are highly favored by early adopters in the Chinese-speaking community.
Top 3 in the English-speaking community👇
@AbstractChain: Possibly the most seamless modular protocol right now, Western communities particularly love its minimalist $pengu Luca design and developer-first abstract logic.
@MagicNewton: Known for its "new tier" community-driven projects, combining aesthetics, community culture, and speculative energy.
@pumpdotfun: Pure meme frenzy, chaotic farming plays on the Solana chain.
It’s still early, and most projects haven’t even launched their tokens (TGE). But this sentiment divergence? It’s likely to spread to other projects. There’s also another key market on Kaito Yaps—Korea. In the future, I expect the Spanish-speaking community (Latin America and Spain) to showcase distinct community characteristics as well.
If you’re tracking cross-cultural breakout opportunities, this is highly valuable alpha.
Next step: Let’s see which project can successfully bridge these two worlds. Good luck, everyone!
