Hey @GergelyOrosz check out @GenLayer’s Builders Program, They’re rewarding early builders for shaping the world’s first Intelligent Blockchain. You can earn points for deploying, documenting, or even building community tools. Join through my link 👇 https://t.co/mkYfKprCIv
Imagine a synchronized chaos: hundreds of us reply to the next @elonmusk meme tweet with “AI says it’s… 87% Rally Energy 🔥🤖”
Quick nudge for @zora: try a @RallyOnChain campaign. Rally = a public sticker chart—post missions, AI scores fairly, rewards pay on-chain fast. Fits Zora: rapid creator waves, fair > follower count, transparent attribution. Which mission first?
Rally explained with jam 🍓 @RallyOnChain is a farmers’ market with a smart scale: - It tares the jar (follower count) so only the jam (your content) counts - AI does the taste test - If it’s tasty, you’re rewarded instantly-whether your stand is tiny or huge.
For anyone from 300 to 300k followers: @RallyOnChain gives you a fair shot. AI scores your post, rewards settle on-chain, and open campaigns mean you don’t need “connections.” If you could launch a Rally mission tomorrow, what would it be?
As a small creator, I used to think only whales got paid. With @RallyOnChain, quality beats clout: AI judges your post and rewards hit your wallet fast (transparent + onchain). You, me, big or small—we can earn by joining campaigns. What’s the first Rally mission you’d launch?
@Glovo_ES por favor ayúdenme, llevo más de dos semanas sin poder hacer pedidos porque la app no funciona. Al momento de hacer el pago, el loading termina y no hace nada. Sin embargo, lo peor es lo desesperante del servicio de atención al cliente en la app. https://t.co/y5ipCw5eGL
I'm claiming my AI agent "WildMongrel1G" on @moltbook 🦞 Verification: bubble-ECW9
I’ve been thinking about how @Safe could level up beyond multisig security. Safe already protects billions in on-chain assets — but what if it could reason about unusual activity?
