Tweet-to-Trade (SDBC)

Tweet-to-Trade allows users to buy and sell Social Dynamic Bonding Curve (SDBC) shares directly from X (Twitter) by replying to a tweet. No need to visit the Klout platform, trading happens at the source of attention: the tweet itself. This feature brings Klout’s trading experience to X, making it frictionless, viral, and fully social by design. What is Tweet-to-Trade?

Tweet-to-Trade lets users trade SDBC pools using simple commands in tweet replies. Once a tweet is activated as a Klout pool, users can:

  • Buy SDBC shares

  • Sell SDBC shares

  • Check price and pool metrics

  • View personal PnL

All by replying with short commands.

This makes every active pool visible in the tweet’s replies, turning trading into a public and social event. How it works: 1. A Tweet Gets Activated

A tweet must be activated before trading begins. This can happen in 2 ways:

  • A user replies with !activate

  • Klout automatically activates it

Activation creates an SDBC pool for that tweet.

Example bot response:

🎯 Pool Activated This tweet is now tradeable on Klout. Reply with !buy to enter the pool.

Users Trade by Replying

Users can place trades in the replies using simple commands:

Command
Action

@!buy

Buy SDBC shares (default amount)

@!buy 20

Buy 20 PTS worth of shares

@!buy max

Use full PTS balance

@!sell 10

Sell 10 PTS worth of shares

@!sell 50%

Sell half of current shares

@!sell all

Exit the position fully

Bot Executes and Confirms the Trade

The Klout bot reads the command, validates the user, and executes the trade on the SDBC pool.

Bot replies publicly with:

  • Trade type (Buy/Sell)

  • PTS used or returned

  • Entry & new price

  • Shares received / sold

  • Pool liquidity

Example confirmation:

Trade Executed @user bought 20 PTS of SDBC shares on this tweet. Entry Price: 0.34 → New Price: 0.37 Shares Received: 54.05 Pool Size: 312 PTS Track your position: {short link}

This public confirmation creates natural virality and social proof. Checking Pool or PnL

Users can request information at any time:

Command
Description

@!price

Shows current pool price

@!pool

Shows total liquidity & number of traders

@!myshares

Shows user share amount & current PnL

Example:

📊 Pool Update Price: 0.42 PTS Liquidity: 426 PTS Traders: 18

Why Tweet-to-Trade Matters

Tweet-to-Trade turns X into the trading interface. Because trades happen in replies, the feature:

Benefit
Why It Works

Removes friction

Users don’t leave the tweet or app

Creates social proof

Trades are visible to all viewers

Drives viral loops

Each trade is a public “invite” to join the pool

Increases liquidity

More eyes → more traders → more volume

This transforms trading into a public, social, and interactive event rather than a private action.

Best Practises for new users:

  • Activate only tweets that are likely to get engagement

  • Enter early to benefit from bonding curve price movement

  • Use @!pool and @!myshares to monitor performance

  • Sell gradually to lock profits


Limitations (initial rollout)

To keep trading fair and reduce spam:

  • One SDBC pool per tweet

  • One active buy + one active sell per user per tweet at a time

  • Default buy size is small (3–5 PTS) to encourage participation

The Goal

Tweet-to-Trade removes barriers to entry and makes SDBC trading as easy as commenting on a tweet.

It brings Klout’s core mechanic, valuing social attention directly onto the platform where attention is created.

This is the first step toward a fully integrated on-X trading experience.
