Quick summary (TL;DR)
Total pool: $150,000 in LAYER tokens (distributed in USD-equivalent via the CreatorPad campaign).
Split: 70% of the pool goes to the top 300 creators on the @Solayer Leaderboard; 30% is shared among all eligible participants who completed the extra social tasks.
How to qualify (ranking): To be eligible for the Leaderboard share you must complete Tasks 1 & 2 plus one of Tasks 3, 4 or 5. To unlock the 30% participant pool you must also complete additional social tasks (Tasks 6 & 7 on X). Note: Tasks 6 & 7 do not affect your Leaderboard rank.
Activity period (example from CreatorPad announcement): Aug 7, 2025 — Nov 7, 2025 (UTC) — read the specific CreatorPad/Binance announcement for the exact campaign window that applies to you.
Payout: Rewards will be distributed in the Reward Hub within 14 days after the campaign ends.
1) Official campaign structure & what the numbers mean
The campaign is run through CreatorPad / Binance Square (CreatorPad task platform) where verified users complete tasks to unlock a share of the $150k LAYER pool. The organizer has split the pool to reward top-performing creators heavily (top 300 share 70%) while also giving every eligible participant a share (30%). This structure is designed to reward both concentrated high-performers and broader community participation.
Why two pools? Leaderboard-based rewards incentivize high-quality and high-volume content (ranking factors explained below), while the participant pool increases baseline engagement (social posts, retweets, short actions) across a wider audience.
2) Eligibility and the Tasks (how to qualify step-by-step)
Campaign pages list multiple tasks; the ranking qualification is specifically gated:
To appear on the @Solayer Leaderboard (and compete for the 70% top-300 share) you must complete Tasks 1 & 2, and at least one of Task 3, 4 or 5. These are the tasks that contribute to your rank.
To be eligible for the 30% participant pool, you must also complete Tasks 6 & 7 (these are social/X tasks). Important: Tasks 6 & 7 do not change your Leaderboard rank — they only unlock access to the broader-share pool.
Typical task types (examples drawn from CreatorPad campaigns):
Task 1–2: usually “create original content” and “publish on the platform (CreatorPad/Binance Square)” or connect an account + submit creative.
Task 3–5: might be producing specific content formats (short video, thread, blog) or sharing deeper project analysis.
Task 6–7: social-media actions — follow, retweet/X-post, tag project account, or comment with a campaign hashtag.
(Exact wording/order may vary by campaign; always read the campaign task list on the CreatorPad page before completing.)
3) Timeline & claiming
Activity period (CreatorPad announcement example): Aug 7, 2025 — Nov 7, 2025 (UTC). Confirm the live page for the accurate window for your account/region.
Distribution / claim: Rewards are distributed via the Reward Hub and the official notice says distributions occur within 14 days after the campaign ends. That means, if Nov 7 is the final day, expect the reward window to open and distributions to finish within the following two weeks — check Reward Hub for the claim button and an exact timestamp.
4) How Leaderboard ranking and reward split typically work
CreatorPad leaderboards usually score and rank creators using a weighted formula that considers:
Quality of content (platform-specific scoring),
Engagement (likes, shares, comments),
Compliance with task rules (originality, correct hashtags, no spam), and
Completeness (did you submit correctly and on time).
The top 300 creators share 70% of the $150k pool — typically that pool is distributed proportionally by rank (higher rank = larger slice). The remaining 30% is split among all participants who completed the extra X tasks; that 30% is usually distributed either equally or weighted by engagement among eligible participants — check the official campaign terms for the exact formula.
5) Practical step-by-step: how to maximize your chance
Read the CreatorPad campaign page carefully (task wording, examples, submission format). Most disqualifications come from failing to follow submission rules.
Complete Tasks 1 & 2 early. Those are mandatory for leaderboard eligibility — treat them as prerequisites.
Pick the best of Tasks 3/4/5 that plays to your strengths (video vs. article vs. thread). Quality + engagement beats quantity.
Finish Tasks 6 & 7 on X (social tasks) to unlock the 30% pool — they don’t boost rank but they unlock additional rewards.
Follow the campaign hashtag/account (often required) and use the exact hashtag and format specified.
Promote your submission — cross-post it where allowed (Discord, Telegram, X) to boost engagement — but avoid spammy or inorganic growth tactics (those can disqualify you).
Document proof: save screenshots and links to your posts until rewards are distributed in case CreatorPad support asks for verification.
6) Claiming and receiving tokens — what to expect
Where to claim: Reward Hub (CreatorPad/Binance Square integration) — after distribution, eligible users should see a claimable reward or an automatic credit depending on the platform.
Timeframe: within 14 days after campaign end the campaign statement says. If you don’t see tokens after that window, open a ticket with the campaign host/CreatorPad support and keep your submission evidence.
7) Background on LAYER & why exchanges and guides mention other qualification routes
Solayer’s $LAYER token and airdrops have been covered by multiple exchanges and media — besides CreatorPad campaigns there were earlier airdrops and rewards tied to sSOL holdings, delegation, partner deposits, and exchange-specific staking programs (for example, exchange pages describe eligibility through BNSOL holdings or depositing sSOL/sUSD with partners). If you hold or stake Solana-based liquid staking tokens (LSTs) or sSOL in partner programs, that can be a separate path to LAYER incentives — but this CreatorPad campaign is distinct and rewards are distributed via CreatorPad/Reward Hub.
Also, Solayer tokenomics (presented during the token launch) state a 1 billion total supply with initial distributions and airdrop allocations — keep this in mind when estimating token dilution and long-term value.
8) Potential pitfalls and compliance tips
Do NOT try to game engagement with bots or fake accounts; CreatorPad and Binance routinely audit submissions and engagements. Violations can lead to disqualification.
Follow format exactly (hashtags, mention handles, links). Small rule-breaks are common reasons for disqualification.
Check regional restrictions — sometimes token campaigns exclude certain jurisdictions or require KYC on the exchange. Read the campaign T&Cs.
9) Example timeline (based on the CreatorPad announcement)
Campaign live: Aug 7, 2025 (12:00 UTC) — start completing tasks.
Campaign ends: Nov 7, 2025 (12:00 UTC) — finalize submissions before this cutoff.
Rewards distribution window: within 14 days after Nov 7 → check Reward Hub for claim.
10) Quick FAQ
Q — Do Tasks 6 & 7 affect my leaderboard rank?
A — No. Those tasks only make you eligible for the participant (30%) pool; they do not change ranking.
Q — Where will tokens be delivered?
A — Via the Reward Hub (per campaign announcement). On some platforms tokens may be airdropped to spot accounts or require a claim. Check the exact claim method published on the campaign page.
Q — What if I miss the deadline?
A — Late submissions are generally ineligible. If you expect extenuating circumstances, contact CreatorPad/Binance support with evidence — but don’t assume extensions will be provided.

If you'd like, I can:
Pull the exact wording of Tasks 1–7 from the live CreatorPad campaign page and paste them verbatim (I can fetch the page and copy the task list).
Draft three high-quality post templates (1 long article, 1 short X thread, 1 short video script) tailored to the task formats so you can submit immediately.
