Bounty 4: Write a Thread or Long Post: Price Comparison

Your Mission: Write a thread or long post on X comparing Swap.io's prices against other Solana DEXs, and post it publicly. The five best entries win USDC.

Swap.io is a DEX aggregator on Solana. We compare 5+ aggregators on every trade and route you through the cheapest path, so you never overpay on a swap. We also run Season Zero (earn XP on every swap), trading competitions with growing prize pools, DCA, batch execution, and a Privacy Vault for private transfers.

We want you to test us. Run the same swap on Swap.io and on other Solana venues, screenshot what you get, and show the difference. Report what you actually find.

Prizes

• 1st place: $200

• 2nd place: $125

• 3rd place: $80

• 4th place: $60

• 5th place: $35

Deadline: October 14

Evaluation Criteria

Depth

• Did you run real swaps, or real quotes, with evidence?

• Did you test more than one pair and more than one trade size?

• Did you explain why prices differ between venues, not just that they do?

• Does the reader understand what routing and aggregation actually do by the end?

Execution

• Is the thread easy to follow, with a strong opening tweet?

• Are the screenshots clear and legible on mobile?

• Did you avoid jargon, or explain it when you used it?

• Is it the right length: long enough to be useful, short enough to finish?

Impact

• Would you share this thread if you hadn't written it?

• Does it make someone want to test Swap.io themselves?

• Impressions and engagement generated

Ideas (optional, do what you want)

• Compare a small swap and a large swap. The difference between venues usually grows with size

• Test a long-tail token where liquidity is thinner, not just SOL/USDC

• Show the route Swap.io took and which venues it split across

• Work out what the savings would add up to over 100 trades

• Compare on a volatile day versus a quiet one
