CyberLetter #13: Link3 Events, Raffle & What’s Up in Web3

CyberConnect is a decentralized social graph protocol that helps developers bootstrap network effects and builds powerful social dApps while returning data ownership back to users.

Through our publicly accessible protocol, we are democratizing social connections and making social graphs self-sovereign, portable, composable, blockchain-agnostic, and contextually meaningful.

🎟️Link3 Raffles

Raffles are an integral part of the Web3 ecosystem to drive engagement. Upon receiving feedback from projects/organizations, we’re excited to introduce Link3 raffles. Organizations can choose to award ERC-20 tokens or special invitations/promo codes to winners. We will soon add the ability to grant ERC-721 and ERC-1155 tokens and a variety of requirements for raffle entry.

🏅Binance Account Bound (BAB) Raffle

To celebrate the arrival of the BNB Chain on Link3, we partnered with Binance to launch Binance Account Bound (BAB) Tokens. BAB, a soulbound token, is a non-transferable identity credential for Binance users who have completed their KYC verification process. BAB token holders will receive several benefits ranging from exclusive airdrops and VIP benefits to access to newly launched features in the Binance ecosystem.

We’re thrilled to share that the special raffle ended last week with over 20,500 entries. All winners have received an email outlining the steps to claim their Link3 Mystery Box NFT. Click here to learn more about BAB tokens and how to mint one!

⭐What’s Up in Web3

We are also actively onboarding and curating the best Web3 events for you. Keep an eye on the Weekly Highlights and What’s Up In Web3 series on our Twitter. Follow along to stay in the loop 🤙


Link3 is currently in its Alpha 1.0 stage. Only whitelisted addresses or those with invitation codes can set up their verified profiles. To make it to the whitelist during this first phase, you will need either one of the following:

A) Must be included by a verified Link3 project in its Team, Backers, or Contributors section. If your project does not have its profile yet, ask your team to set it up now!

B) Must be followed by a super KOL (according to TwitterScan) or a top 100 users on ethleaderboard.xyz. Read more about the rules here.

Also, keep an eye on our community announcements on Twitter, Discord, and the later section below - we have a lot of smaller campaigns ongoing.

🚨New Whitelisting Rule🚨

Anyone followed by more than 5 Whale accounts as certified by MetascanPro will be automatically eligible for early access to Link3. Link3 Mystery Boxes will be airdropped to the first 50 eligible users. Check your eligibility here!


We are accepting applications for Cyber Grants on a rolling basis. Whether you’re building a Web3 Social dApp, security/tooling, or privacy infrastructure or looking to take advantage of our recommendation engine, if you believe you have it in you to take Web3 social to the next level, this grant program is for you.
