KapKap, the AI-native Web3 platform turning player attention and reputation into digital value, has raised $10 million to scale its intelligent value system and expand major IP partnerships across gaming and Web3 culture.
The seed round was led by Animoca Brands, with participation from Shima Capital, Mechanism Capital, Klaytn Foundation, and Big Brain Holdings — followed by a strategic round led by Unicorn Verse with Rzong Capital and BGX Capital.
The raise signals rising investor conviction in attention-driven value systems — where gameplay, content, and social participation become measurable, tradeable, and rewarded assets.

The Thesis: Attention Is the New Asset Class
KapKap’s core engine, the KAPS (Key Attention Pricing System), turns attention and reputation into k-scores by tracking gameplay, creative output, and social signals. Those scores unlock rewards, game publishing opportunities, and creator incentives across the ecosystem.
Simply put: the more you contribute, the more valuable you become.
With 1.7M monthly active users and 25,000 daily active users already, KapKap is proving its model in live environments through titles like Summon of Glory (SOG) and Idle Knights, and serving as a key growth driver in the BNB Chain ecosystem.
Top-Tier IP Meets AI Reputation Rails
KapKap is one of the few platforms bringing mainstream gaming IPs into Web3 with real utility:
SNK: licensing for legendary franchises The King of Fighters & Samurai Shodown
BAYC & ApeCoin DAO: BAYC-themed NFT hero series
IP collaborations through Summon of Glory
SNK characters like Mai Shiranui, Iori Yagami, Haohmaru, and Kyo Kusanagi are now playable in Web3 environments — a major cultural bridge between traditional gaming and decentralized participation.
Why Investors Are Leaning In
The attention economy has been Web2’s most powerful engine — but centralized platforms captured the value. KapKap flips that script with AI-driven value flows, ownership, and verifiable participation.
“Attention is only the starting point — real value comes from long-term engagement and trust. With KAPS, every action and contribution becomes digital capital.”
Andy Mao, Co-Founder & CMO, KapKap
The new funding will accelerate:
Scaling the KAPS reputation system
Publishing new casual titles
Expanding developer and IP partnerships
Bringing millions of players into AI-powered attention markets
The Future: Intelligent Participation Networks
KapKap represents a broader shift in Web3 gaming — away from speculation loops and toward reputation-powered economies where users earn from consistent contribution, not hype cycles.
