Twitter Creator Quest: Engage and Earn
Calling all social media mavens! Engage with Vulcan Forged on Twitter and show your support. With $6,000 up for grabs, your activity, creativity, and engagement can earn you a spot among the top creators.
What to do? Become a top-notch creator for the Vulcan brand and help us spread our name far and wide.
How to do this? Here’s a playbook:
- Engage with all our tweets and retweets.
- Tweet every other day about us. Amplify our announcements, share your thoughts, highlight our products, educate the audience, or even create memes! Mention @VulcanForged and use the $PYR cashtag in each tweet.
- Join the Conversation: Mention @VulcanForged, our products, and the $PYR cashtag in relevant third-party discussions. For example, mention @VulcanVerse in tweets about the best MMORPG or Elysium in conversations about the next big L1.

Similarly, when tweeting, use your natural conversational tone to share opinions, insights, suggestions, specific appreciation for a product, educational content, or even something humorous, rather than just posting random tweets or AI-generated generic content.
How to win?
To enter this quest, you must fill out this form. You can also join the twitter-creator-sept-showdown channel on our Discord to share your tweets and collaborate with other creators.
There will be two tiers of winners for this quest:
Tier 1: Top 10 Creators
- Minimum requirement: 15 tweets + 20 third-party replies + Like and comment on all Vulcan Forged tweets
- Reward: Rewards: 1st: $500 | 2nd: $400 | 3rd: $375 | 4th: $325 | 5th: $300 | 6th: $250 | 7th: $225 | 8th: $200 | 9th: $175 | 10th: $150
- Winners are determined by how well they follow the playbook given above and the impact of their content (impressions and engagement).
Tier 2: All Active Creators
- Minimum requirement: 10 tweets + 10 third-party replies + Like and comment on all Vulcan Forged tweets
- Raffle: $100 x 25 winners for those who meet the minimum but don’t make the top 10.
Bonus Challenges
Best Tweet: $150, $100, $50 for the top 3 entries based on quality and impact.
Best Thread: Same as above.
Note: Avoid using unfair means like engagement groups or bots. The X algorithm encourages organic engagement with other creators via the timeline or X lists, but creating engagement groups and doing robotic engagement will result in a deboost for your account.
