think you need to reinvent yourself in crypto every 12-18 months or you stop being able to make $ BTC guys missed ETH, ICO bros missed DeFi, all those people missed NFTs, then the NFT people mostly missed memecoins, blah blah you get locked into one model of money game & most people never break out of that so the move is... -find new accounts who are sharp that joined the industry somewhat recently & are succeeding -figure out how they play + what they find interesting -rewire your brain accordingly

something cool a farcaster client could do what if there were additional metrics to look at re: who follows your account? we have raw follower count, ok cool what about follower density? i.e. the credibility or reach of someone's followers versus just the raw number? @balajis.eth following someone probably matters more than their mom following them for example. or what about follower liveness? i.e. the proportion of your follower base that has been active (and to what extent) over a recent time interval. @ted following someone probably matters more than some random VC who created an account and never came back, etc. these are hand-wavy af I know, but playing with different ways to assess / understand people's clout could be cool imo
