it’s not about content or people… those are two sides of the same coin & we don’t get more of those coins until the ecosystem & frame hub materialize & the flywheel backfills we already used up our allotment & they left so it’s no longer about people or “interesting content;” it now about good tech that captures attention & spins outward into a meta then more people come; THEN we get more content i don’t know why we continue to look at a crypto-native social-first platform as a “social network that normal people are going to use one day” they are not & it is not; it’s a CRYPTO-NATIVE PLATFORM that is social-FIRST; NOT social as a core value prop it’s about crypto, devs, tech & markets that much is made abundantly clear right from the sign-up funnel & as result, 90%+ of normal people will never cross that bridge further the 10% that do will immediately get hit with suggested follows… who are all crypto people… so if crypto is not their cup of tea, they are done day 1

they are NOT here for content NO news breaks here (we have like 2 journalists...); the academics churned; the “influencer” group is stale; the artists are on rodeo or zora; the thinkbois are on x; even the people who built communities here in feb/march have churned because there is no distribution in other words, much of our CRYPTO TAM has ALREADY came here & left so how do we get them back? i assure you it is NOT through highlighting more of the SAME content that caused them to call us “linkedin” in the first place it is done through fringe tech & economic alignment… JUST LIKE ANYTHING ELSE IN CRYPTO you do not get millions of revved up, money hungry, pfp-using autists excited by sharing sacagawea quotes on resilience you get them excited by pushing the boundaries & narratives of the space & inviting them into the possibilities of changing the world that has absolutely nothing to do with content unless we’re talking about tokenomics or other technicalities that they find exciting

Here for the hot takes. It’s hard to build community when your community is mostly labeled as spam and you can’t see their content or they can’t see you because the algo no longer shows you people you follow.

This hit so hard, i had to rethink my whole existence since i started crypto💀 I totally resonate with everything said here, i hope your casts continue to reach a wider audience too. Just one token degen did refine this ecosystem in a few months and got more builders in(reasons why some of us are actually still active here too)

Agree. Content is a lagging indicator.
