The Attention Economy and How Loudio is Changing the SocialFi and Info-Fi Ecosystems

Decentralized finance (DeFi) has become an important part of the cryptocurrency space, and now other initiatives are springing up. One of the fastest-growing narratives is SocialFi, and Loudio is changing how users approach the industry.

Loudio is a decentralized application (dApp) focused on SocialFi and Info-Fi. Built on the Solana blockchain, this project tracks social activity, particularly on X, and assigns users a "mindshare" score using Kaito's influence engine.

However, what makes Loudio unique is that it brings together an SPL token, a locked liquidity pool, and Kaito AI–driven mindshare scores, allowing it to create a perpetual incentive loop.

According to the team, every trade of the LOUD (Loudio’s native token) generates fees in SOL, which are then funneled back to top content creators and KAITO stakers.

While the project is interesting, Loudio’s operational mechanism is what is attracting experts to the project. Andrei Grachev, Managing Partner of DWF Labs, pointed out that the project is attracting more users as they compete for yield as they try to build influence.

“Loudio is this experiment, and it seems to be part of this broader trend, which looks to be the rise of speculation as an incentive for creator participation. In simple terms, it's basically seeing speculation as a new way to get creators involved.

The payouts are interesting, sure, but what is interesting to observe is how people are actually behaving: they're literally competing for yield by trying to build influence. There's clearly this hunger for real-time monetization, especially among people who want to stay pseudonymous.

You know how early DeFi took liquidity and turned it into these customizable incentive loops? Well, SocialFi is starting to do the exact same thing, but with attention instead. The thing is, this whole design space is pretty volatile. Stuff comes and goes fast, and most of it isn't really filtered yet.

We're not necessarily betting on Loudio itself, but we're watching the underlying mechanics closely. The big question for us is whether these systems can actually evolve into real infrastructure for on-chain distribution and growth, and maybe even cultural coordination.

Well, we don't think every SocialFi project is going to make it. But what we do think is that protocols are going to start embedding these native growth loops that feel way more like games or markets than traditional marketing. It's not going to be a clean transition, but honestly? It's already happening," Grachev added.

Here is a simple breakdown of Loudio’s core mechanics;

• Mindshare Mining: This allows users to earn a “mindshare” score by posting about Loudio. Their activities are tracked and ranked via Kaito AI’s advanced analytics.

• Fee-Driven Rewards: Every LOUD/USDT or LOUD/SOL swap on Meteora incurs a 4% SOL fee. The funds generated from this go directly to the community.

• Redistribution Loop: The generated fees are pooled weekly and split between the top 25 mindshare contributors and KAITO stakers.

Loudio’s operational mechanism is unique because it embeds rewards into tokenomics, ensuring that anyone can earn by simply sharing. The system is also transparent and trustless, as locked liquidity and fixed supply guarantee no hidden insider allocations.

Loudio intends to become a decentralized attention layer that powers token launches and creator economies. While it is still a work in progress, Loudio is also redefining how communities are formed and funded in Web3.
