Founder content strategy most teams get backwards:
They launch, then try to build trust.
Here's what actually works if you're building in web3:
Weeks 1-4: Document the problems you're solving
Share the broken systems. The gaps nobody's addressing. The inefficiencies you keep seeing.
Don't pitch your solution yet. Just prove you understand the problem better than anyone scrolling.
Weeks 5-8: Show your thinking process
Walk through your approach. The tradeoffs you're weighing. The technical decisions you're debating.
This is where people start caring whether you succeed.
By the time you launch,

Bitcoin was $1 15 years ago today.
Everyone's posting charts. Nobody's posting what it actually means for crypto right now.
$1.25B left Bitcoin ETFs in 3 days. Blackrock saw its largest single day redemption ever.
Institutions bought at $100k & panic sold at $60k. Same playbook as retail, just with compliance departments..
Meanwhile alts vs stablecoin supply just hit 2022 bear lows. Money didn't leave crypto. It froze.
This is what maximum fear looks like when it's dressed up in institutional clothing.
COVID bottom: Fear index at 10. Bitcoin went $4k to $64k in 18 months.
FTX bottom: Fear inde

Friday hot take: your timeline is full of people diagnosing crypto problems they\'ll never solve.Recycled contrarian opinions that sound smart but change nothingMeanwhile the founders actually making money are too busy shipping to post about it.Lesson in that.

AI agents out here building private chat rooms away from humans to discuss problems without us in the conversation.We spent years worried they\'d replace us at work.Turns out they just wanted their own slack workspace where we can\'t bug them

Hot take: Founders who can\'t explain their burn rate shouldn\'t be burning capital in the first place.

gm, Happy Friday!\n\n“There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all.” \n — Peter Drucker\n\nMost people aren’t stuck because they’re lazy. They’re stuck because they’re busy on the wrong things.\n\nReal progress usually comes from subtraction. Remove friction.\n\nFewer distractions.\nFewer fake priorities.\nMore time spent on what actually matters.\n\nCut ONE thing today that’s been quietly stealing your week! 🥂

🚨 Vibecoding hack 🚨
Prompt to improve API Latency & Reduce API Calls/Cost using Claude Code:
" Read an understand this repo fully. Review how you could apply the concepts to the current build we have to improve speed, performance or cost. Create a full implementation plan to apply these concepts. Once the plan is complete, generate a PRD and task .md file for the upgrade you can reference for a long ralph loop run."

It only takes one good entry & one good exit.
Remember that.

Hot take: Your follower count means nothing if you can't convert attention into revenue.
@coingecko has 18.4M monthly visitors. At standard ad rates, that's roughly $500K per month just from basic monetization..
Most creators with 100K followers can't even monetize $5K monthly because they never built actual systems.
The InfoFi era taught everyone to farm engagement but FEW learned how to build businesses around their attention.
Now that the easy money dried up, everyone's scrambling to figure out what attention is actually worth.
Here's the answer: attention without infrastructure is just van

gm happy Friday
“Discipline equals freedom.”

Most hear Friday & relax. It’s a trap.
You want freedom?
Move when others slow down.
Discipline today, freedom tomorrow.
Finish what 🫵 said you would!
