How I cleared ~$20k risk free in April without any cabals or insider deals (and what not to do going forward) I’ve been preaching about this for months now, but your online social brand is an incredibly valuable asset if you build it the right way. Content deals and partnerships push the top line value way higher, but these are things *anyone* can do. 1) Virtuals ecosystem They retooled a lot of things over the last month, and the Genesis Agent platform is absolutely cooking. I only took part in like 2 launches, but cleared ~$11k from ~300 total VIRTUAL tokens. In order to get points for access to the launches, you need to either hold/stake good tokens, trade tokens in the ecosystem, or talk about Virtuals and submit your posts every few days. It’s really incredibly straightforward, and there’s a lot to talk about (agents to review, projects being built, etc) - just requires a bit of thought and consistency. I hold/stake a lot of TRUST/VADER/DTRXBT for passive points as well. 2) Polkadot ecosystem mindshare This one is insanely easy right now - there simply aren’t enough big names talking about what they’re doing in the eco. So every few days I’ll find something that’s being built, a DeFi strategy, or some metrics that are interesting and just write down some thoughts about it. This past month I wrote about the really impressive gaming metrics on the PlayMythical parachain from the NFLRivals game as well as covering the upcoming Pudgy and FIFA games. For some bizarre reason, almost none of the gaming KOLs talk about Polkadot games, but the mindshare incentives are probably worth more than their monthly retainers. It’s a blue ocean to make content and get rewards. I also wrote about stablecoin yield farming on Hydration. As a result of all of that, I earned just under $10k in DOT. Literally free money. I plan to continue doing these things going forward while incentives are large and competition is low…and i’d recommend looking for more spots like this to maximize your time. And as for what not to do? 1) Don’t use AI for your posts. It’s super obvious when you do. Nobody wants to read 300 word posts completely devoid of life and clearly just thrown together to farm a mindshare board. 2) Don’t try to be everything. There’s a gorillion different incentive boards. Trying to be “the guy” for all of them (or even more than like 5 just makes you look like a farmer…and that’s not interesting. You’ll never grow a lasting audience that way…and it’ll make incentives (and deals) much harder to get later on. 3) Don’t become one dimensional. Another big mistake I see is someone making their entire personality about one specific thing/protocol and just constantly shting out long boring posts (normally AI assisted) about some topic they’d never spoken on a few weeks ago. Nobody wants that. Remain human if you want to appeal to your readers. Mindshare Marketing article (hopefully) coming next week Much luv - ico
