Mantle launched the second phase of the Yapperboard Challenge with a prize pool of $40,000

The Mantle team has launched the second phase of the Yapperboard Challenge, which will run from May 6 to June 4, 2025. The 50 most active content creators will share a prize pool of 50,000 MNT (~$40,000), as reported in the project's blog.

The total prize pool for all three phases of the competition is 150,000 MNT. According to the conditions, participants must publish original content about the Mantle project.

"We will limit rewards for low-quality AI content — for example, spam from bots or template posts and meaningless images. Our goal is to encourage the most creative and substantive participants. We believe that AI is a tool for creativity, but it cannot replace genuine ideas and personal experience," emphasizes the Mantle team.

Participants can track their position in the rankings on the Kaito platform. The more quality content they publish on X, the higher their position will be. The Kaito leaderboards are constantly optimized, so there are no strict ranking rules. However, Mantle offers several recommendations:

• post content regularly, but avoid spamming. Create valuable materials and discussions for the community;
• interact with other authors;
• draw ideas from those who occupy the top positions in the rankings, as well as from the winners of the first stage;
• Join the Mantle community on X and Discord (Yap Club) to get inspiration and helpful examples from other participants.

Alongside the Yapperboard Challenge, the Mantle Yap Club program is in effect, where users can receive up to 800 MNT weekly: 500 tokens through raffles and 300 tokens for completing bounty tasks and challenges. Additionally, participants have access to bonuses from the Mantle ecosystem. To join the Yap Club, it is necessary to join the project's Discord channel.

Mantle notes that as a result of the first stage of the Yapperboard Challenge, members of the Yap Club took 36 out of 50 prize places and earned a total of over 40,000 MNT.

Earlier, Mantle announced the launch of a crypto bank and the MI4 index fund with a budget of $400 million.
