Make Us Laugh, Get Paid: The Speedstake Memes & Vids Bounty

Sponsor: Pye
Type: Content Bounty (Twitter/X)
Live: June 17 to June 26, 2026
Submissions cutoff: June 26, 11:59 PM EST

Backgrounder

Pye is making Solana Stake more rewarding. Solana staking pays you 4.5 to 6.5% APY in rewards, but you wait months to accrue enough to actually use it. Speedstake by Pye lets you grab those future rewards as SOL today, without unstaking and without giving up your principal. Make crypto twitter and the Solana ecosystem laugh or think be creatively showing all the crazy, interesting or hilarious things you'd do with that SOL.

What is Speedstake? (read this, you'll need it)

Over 85% of SOL staked does not have access to DeFi. It earns rewards every epoch, but that SOL just sits there until the rewards slowly trickle out. Your only way to get liquid faster is to unstake, which costs you 2 to 3 days and costs your validator the delegation.

See Launch Announcement

Speedstake lets stakers sell their future staking rewards for upfront SOL, instantly, in under a minute. Meanwhile:

• ✅ Your principal stays staked with your validator

• ✅ It's fully redeemable 1:1 at maturity

• ✅ It's non-custodial. Neither Pye nor your validator can touch your stake

• ✅ You're only selling the rewards, not the deposited SOL itself

Think of it as: "Why wait three months for rewards when you can get it today?", it’s similar to get all your interest for the next year in your savings account today instead of waiting for it to accrue slowly. Get the funds, do something with them now.

Once that SOL is in your hands early, what do you actually do with it? Hedge into stablecoins? Ape into a memecoin? Buy 400 coffees? Pokemon cards? Spend them all on a MLM scam? Start a cult? There are limitless things you can do. The bounty is putting them together.

Your mission

Make a standalone tweet (not a thread) with original short-form content showing a creative, funny, or clever use case for the rewards you pulled early from Speedstake (for the purpose of this bounty, you dont actually have to use speedstake, you can hypothetically act as though you got the SOL through it).

Accepted formats:

• 🖼️ Memes

• 🎥 Short vlogs or skits (under ~60 sec)

• 🎞️ Animations or motion graphics

• Anything short, original, and worth a screenshot (including tweets)

Your content should be fun, based, deadpan, eccentric or whatever inspires you. We're not looking for explainer threads. We're looking for content that makes the biggest smile.

We will like and repost banger tweets throughout the submission period.

The top 10 submissions will get rewarded with SOL. By participating you are agreeing for us to use your content in a video/marketing material, we are planning to make a fun music video with the posts with a similar aesthetic to this (we will have a credits page for included content).

Total Prize Pool: 6 SOL

How we judge

This is not a checklist contest. We're picking the submissions that make our team laugh hardest or land a genuine "ohhh, that's actually clever" moment.

Your submissions will be judged on: humor, creativity, originality, surprising use case, vibes, style.

Submission rules

1. Post your content as a public tweet from your own X account, tagging @pyefinance as a subtweet/thread.

2. Do not put the bounty link in the tweet body (it kills reach). Just tag us.

3. Submit the direct tweet link here on Superteam Earn.

4. Original work only. No reused content, no zero-effort AI slop, no plagiarized memes.

5. Multiple submissions allowed, but quality over spam. We judge your best one or two.

6. Content must stay live through the judging period.

Now go make us laugh. 🥧
