Stop Rewarding Bots. Start Building Community.

Every DeFi protocol faces the same brutal reality: XX% of your “users” are bots, farmers, or mercenary capital. Your airdrops feed extraction, not loyalty. Your rewards programs subsidize your competitors.

@genome_protocol fixes this using zero-knowledge proofs, Genome creates verified user profiles without exposing personal data. Projects can finally distinguish between:

- Real users vs. sybil attacks
- Genuine engagement vs. farming behavior  
- Long-term supporters vs. airdrop hunters

The Impact;
- Airdrops that work: Reward actual community members, not bot networks
- Loyalty that scales: Build retention programs based on verified behavior
- Competitive moats: Turn user intelligence into sustainable advantage

Privacy-First by Design
No KYC needed or data collection, instead it uses a cryptographic proof that users meet your criteria... whether that's transaction history, social signals, or community participation.

The result?
Protocols grow with their real users, not against them.


XX engagements
