It's time to open myself up to new challenges. User/community strategy, culture, content, crypto, AI, creators. I've spent the last few years jumping between all of these worlds, learning, building and figuring cool stuff out along the way. If you're building something and need someone to bring value, feel free to reach out, my dms are open, while I'm building systems out of my passions: users journey/experiences, culture and creativity. I'll continue to be involved with Digitoys as an advisor and collaborator, helping on the journey to bring digital toys everywhere and give generations the chance to rediscover their imagination. k. dan

what NOT TO DO if you want to make money on CT (from someone who’s done these mistakes) > trying to be right all the time instead of trying to be useful > wasting energy proving your point to people who were never going to care > spending too much time obsessing over who is cheating, farming or scamming > confusing “being aware of the game” with letting the game consume you > hanging around the wrong crowd for too long because it felt easier than starting over > trusting people because they were present, not because they were serious > waiting for opportunities to come to you instead of actively pursuing them > thinking good work automatically gets noticed > building reputation with people who have no ability or intention to create opportunities > saying yes to things that make you look busy but don’t move you closer to money > treating CT like a social circle instead of a marketplace > spending more time reacting to others than positioning yourself > underpricing yourself because you’re afraid the offer disappears > not packaging what you can actually do into something people can easily buy > forgetting that attention is only valuable if it eventually converts into trust, leverage or revenue this is not a skill issue but a direction issue. if you found this useful, consider sharing it with friends 🤍

if you have to ask people for follow backs i'm sorry but you're literally never gonna make it here and the reason is very simple the social farming era is done in crypto. there's literally no future for anyone here who believes that ''showing up'' is gonna make them money the problem is that instead of focusing on what can mak a difference, most people focus on hitting a vanity metric milestone that does and means nothing the number of followers one has is becoming less and less important. the way the timeline works allows micro-accounts and mid-sized accounts to get in front of millions of people now if growth is what you want there's a much better way to get your followers number up as compared to asking for people to ''connect'' or ''follow you back'' just because a real connection happens when you are impossible to ignore, when you bring something to the table, when you add value and when you take it further than just the comment section those who know this are already winning and getting ahead. those who don't are still asking for follow backs big lesson in here 🧠

The recipe for surviving times like this is basically what I did in 2022 and what laid the foundation for the good things that came later. First of all, don't overtrade. Don't touch perps. I repeat: Don't touch perps. Put money into spot coins that you believe have strong fundamentals and that you're comfortable holding for at least a year. Bitcoin obviously, and maybe some narrative coins you like. I repeat: Don't touch perps. You can easily get wiped out in times like this. And even if you don't, if I had put all the money I lost on perps into spot holdings, I would have twice as much money today. The second part is building your base, something that can generate opportunities and income for you when the market turns bullish again. For most of you (and for me back then), that base is your X account. As you may have noticed already, a lot of mid-sized and large accounts have fallen off over the last few months. Bear market things. That sucks for them, but it's an opportunity for you. Create content, connect with people on the timeline, and find topics that genuinely interest you. Be patient for a year, and you'll be in a better position than 99% of the people trying to make money by trading right now
