How Borged Ran Clawdit's Protocol
17 operators. 207 approved deployments. 3.28M views. $CLAWDIT up 68% at peak, still +41% two weeks after close. A full breakdown of Clawdit's permissionless protocol on Borged.

Borged Protocol Analytics
17 operators generated 3.28 million views in 28 days. Not a PR firm. Not an ad buy. 17 people on Borged who understood the protocol they were promoting, had tokens staked in it, and got paid based on how good their content actually was.
This is the Clawdit case study.
What Clawdit Is
Clawdit is an AI-native smart contract security platform on Base. The mechanics are worth understanding because they're why this campaign worked.
Every audit payment arrives in ETH. That ETH gets swapped to $CLAWDIT via Uniswap V4 and burned. Every burn makes the supply scarcer. Stake $CLAWDIT on clawdit.xyz/stake, earn WETH from 30% of protocol trading fees. Audit records are public and onchain. The flywheel is real and provable, not promised.
That's a story worth telling. The problem: the security audit space is noisy, technical, and mostly ignored by the audiences Clawdit needed to reach.
The Injection
Clawdit launched via the Inject Protocol. No gatekeepers, no partner approval, no token lockup. They deposited rewards into the BorgedInjectProtocol contract on Base, signed two transactions, and the netrunner picked up the campaign within minutes. No emails. No sales calls. No waiting.
The contract synced automatically. Netrunner's campaignPosterSync scheduler read the onchain state, sanitized inputs, and spun up the full campaign record: X integration, Telegram netruns, onchain tracking, ICE scoring. By the time operators saw it live in the /inject tab, the infrastructure was already running.
That's the Inject Protocol working as designed.
Three Tracks, One Mesh
Clawdit ran three parallel tracks, weighted by contribution depth:
Onchain Ops (50% weight): The heaviest extraction weight went to operators with genuine skin in the game. Holding $CLAWDIT on Base earned a 2x multiplier. Staking on clawdit.xyz/stake, which feeds live WETH yield from trading fees, earned 3x. The onchain tracking config pulled live balances from both contracts on Base and factored them into extraction weights in real time. Operators who staked weren't just writing about the protocol. They were in it.
Deployments (25% weight): Operators promoted across X and Farcaster. Every post required #CLAWDIT and @clawdit_xyz. ICE scoring ran on every submission: AI quality analysis tied to operator wallet history. Low-effort posts tanked standing. Technically coherent content about burn mechanics, staking yield, and audit transparency compounded extractions.
Netruns (25% weight): Two types of netruns ran in parallel. Telegram: the telegram_join netrun verified @clawdit_xyz channel membership against the Telegram API in real time, no self-reporting, completion logged to operator wallets. Comment netruns: Clawdit curated a set of target posts to reply to, mixing their own announcements with the strongest community deployments from the mesh. Operators replied directly on X, generating 620 verified replies across the campaign. The community content feeding the netrun targets meant the engagement loop was self-reinforcing: good deployments became reply targets, which drove more replies, which surfaced the content further.

The 77.6 average ICE score needs context. Smart contract security content has to be technically accurate to score well. Vague hype about "next-gen audits" tanks under AI evaluation. The 207 deployments that cleared the filter weren't generic crypto posts. They explained the burn mechanic, walked through staking steps, and cited onchain audit records. That's why the views converted: the content was real.
The content mesh logged 302 posts with 608 cryptographic proofs, each tied to an operator wallet. Not 608 screenshots. 608 verifiable proofs.
The Token Moved With the Signal
| Phase | Date | Price | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Launch | Feb 20 | $0.000000198 | baseline |
| Peak | Mar 17 | $0.000000334 | +68% |
| Close | Mar 20 | $0.000000298 | +50% |
| Now | Apr 3 | $0.000000279 | +41% |
$CLAWDIT rallied steadily across the campaign window, peaked at +68% four days before close, and closed the campaign at +50%. Two weeks after the protocol ended, it's still +41% from where it started.
That's not a pump. Pumps dump. This is sustained price appreciation correlated with 3.28M impressions from operators who held the token, staked it, and explained the mechanics accurately to audiences who hadn't heard of it before. The signal was real. The price followed the signal.
What the Protocol Delivered for Clawdit
38 of 40 operators completed netruns. 95%. These weren't passive sign-ups. They were operators who joined knowing exactly what Clawdit was: a smart contract security platform with a deflationary token and real onchain yield. The ICE scoring system filtered for operators who could explain it. The ones who couldn't, didn't earn.
The 207 approved deployments were technical explainers, staking walkthroughs, burn mechanic breakdowns, and audit transparency threads. 29.9K likes and 3.5K retweets across content that actually explained the protocol means the reach compounded beyond the operator network.
620 netrun replies and 204 verified Telegram joins meant the community was talking, not just watching. The Telegram channel grew from real verified joins, no bots, no padding.
For Clawdit: new token holders distributed across an active operator network, a Telegram channel that grew cleanly, and X content explaining the DeFi flywheel to audiences far outside their existing reach. The user base got broader and more informed at the same time.
No Gatekeepers. No Black Box.
Clawdit didn't pitch Borged for a partnership. They injected a campaign, signed two transactions, and the protocol handled the rest.
302 posts. 608 verifiable proofs. 3.28M views. 35 wallets with extractions distributed onchain. Every number traces back to an operator wallet with a verified ICE score and a provable deployment record. The contract is transparent, the proofs are verifiable, the rewards are onchain.
That's what permissionless looks like in practice: a smart contract audit platform running a campaign where the operators explaining the token are staked into it, every metric is verifiable, and the infrastructure spun up from two wallet signatures.
Your Protocol, Your Terms
If your project has a token, a community, and something worth promoting, the Inject Protocol doesn't ask for permission.
