Cryptopedia, the learn-and-earn platform within the OKX Web3 Wallet, has officially launched its highly anticipated tenth season. This edition centers on the Kaspa network and offers users the chance to participate in tasks for a share of a massive $1,000,000 prize pool in KAS tokens.
The event is designed to be accessible, guiding users through simple on-chain interactions to explore promising Web3 projects and earn potential rewards in the process.
Event Overview and Key Details
The primary goal of this season is to introduce users to the Kaspa ecosystem and its associated partners through two main tasks. Completion and verification of these tasks make a user eligible for the reward distribution.
- Event Period: The event commenced on November 17, 2023, and will run until December 1, 2023 (UTC+8).
- Total Prize Pool: Up to $1,000,000 in KAS tokens.
- Key Requirement: Users must complete and verify both interactive tasks to be eligible for the rewards.
The Two Interactive Tasks
To participate, users need to finish two distinct tasks, each contributing to a portion of the total prize pool.
Task 1: Social Media Follow ($100,000 in KAS)
This task involves following the official Twitter accounts of Kaspa, Coinpal, and IGV directly through the Cryptopedia interface.
- Steps: Navigate to the task within Cryptopedia, connect your Twitter account, and follow the three required profiles.
- Verification: After completing the follows, click the "Verify" button. After a successful check (which may take up to 10 minutes), you will receive a small airdrop of 0.2 KAS as immediate confirmation.
- Important Note: You must maintain these follows until the official award announcement. Your Twitter account can only be linked to one Kaspa wallet address for this event.
Task 2: Mint a KASBOTS NFT (Up to $900,000 in KAS)
This task requires minting a specific NFT on the OKTC chain, which involves a small payment in KAS.
Steps:
- From the Cryptopedia page, click the task to go to the IGV minting interface.
- Connect your OKTC wallet address and confirm the connection.
- Click "Start Here" to proceed to Coinpal for payment.
- Copy the provided payment address from Coinpal.
- Return to your wallet's main interface, select "Send," choose KAS, and send exactly 0.18 KAS to the payment address.
Crucial Instructions:
- You must send the KAS from your personal Kaspa wallet (like the one in your OKX Web3 Wallet). Transfers from a centralized exchange account will not be counted.
- Complete the transfer in one attempt within the time limit. Timed-out or failed transactions will invalidate the task, even if the payment eventually goes through.
- The NFT should be airdropped to your wallet within minutes of a successful payment.
A Note on Wallet Switching: Since Task 1 is on the Kaspa chain and Task 2 is on OKTC, your interface might show Task 1 as "incomplete" after you switch chains for Task 2. This is normal. You can always switch back to your Kaspa wallet address to confirm Task 1's status.

Potential Rewards and How They Work
The total value of the prize pool is dynamic and scales based on the number of participants who complete both tasks.
The reward tiers are structured as follows:
- Tier 1: $100,000 in KAS unlocked at 100,000 participants.
- Tier 2: An additional $300,000 (total $400,000) unlocked at 400,000 participants.
- Tier 3: An additional $600,000 (total $1,000,000) unlocked at 1,000,000 participants.
- Tier 4: The full $1,000,000 prize pool is also unlocked if 3 million people participate and the three Twitter accounts each surpass 200,000 followers.
The final rewards will be airdropped based on the Kaspa wallet address used to pay the 0.18 KAS in Task 2. Each eligible address can only receive one reward. 👉 Explore more strategies for participating in airdrops

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Do I need to hold any funds to participate?
A: For Task 1, you only need a Kaspa wallet address. For Task 2, you will need a small amount of KAS (0.18) to mint the NFT. You may also need a tiny amount for network gas fees on the respective chains.
Q2: Why hasn't my task been verified even though I completed it?
A: Verification is not instant. The platform requires time to read on-chain data and confirm your actions. It can take at least 10 minutes. Avoid verifying tasks at the very last minute of the event to prevent delays from causing a failure.
Q3: Can I use a wallet from another provider, like MetaMask?
A: The tasks are designed to be completed using the integrated OKX Web3 Wallet. While other wallets might work for some steps, using the OKX wallet ensures full compatibility and a smoother experience for verification.
Q4: How and when will I receive my main reward if I win?
A: The main KAS token rewards will be airdropped to the eligible Kaspa wallet addresses after the event concludes and the participant count is finalized. Results will be announced on OKX's official Web3 Twitter accounts.
Q5: What happens if I don't keep following the Twitter accounts?
A: Maintaining the follows is a condition for receiving rewards from Task 1. If you unfollow before the results are announced, you may be deemed ineligible for that portion of the prize pool.
Q6: Is there a risk involved in participating?
A: The primary risk involves the volatility of the KAS token itself, as its market value can fluctuate. The act of participating involves standard blockchain transactions, so always ensure you are on the correct official website to avoid phishing scams.
