bankless

YouTube algorithm game theory at work.

I love @bankless, but from the untrained perspective of someone new to the space, it increasingly looks like "one of 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐞 crypto YouTube channels".

I was wondering the same thing too!!
The thumbnails are gradually starting to look more bitboy / coin bureau like. 😅

Is this convergent evolution?

Love bankless as well. I’d rather them do and make enough money to keep the channel going over ignoring the algorithm and getting less bankless content

They’ve said previously that that’s unfortunately how the algos work 

If they don’t use that cringe marketing style they don’t get views 

It’s the same with investment news letters. Click bait headlines are the only thing that will get new members to sign up
