What happened?

Your support was overwhelming yesterday. I appreciate you. Happy new year! 🎉

The wall is back 🤔

What have I missed?

Thank you to everybody that held my coin throughout the craziness the last few weeks. It’s not easy to see your bags deplete and stay 💎🙌 I see you and I appreciate you.

Would love to know what diamond trends look like these days. What are the top 1% generating a week and from how many DAU’s?

Over 10% of Cryptopunk owners joined Metalink in the first four days… Onto the next one 👾

Coin go crash. Coin go boom.
@dharmesh is always headed to the 🌝

HIRING: If anybody knows a 10X Elixir engineer (or node / react), please send them my way.

I promise they will be forever grateful you made the introduction.

I’ve been using Twitter a lot more recently… Mainly as a way to connect with the NFT community.

There is a certain intimacy to the BitClout community and this site that is different than Twitter for me. I prefer it in many ways.

The content is far superior on Twitter, but connection is everything ❤️

How do we scale it?

I love this. You and I are completely aligned. What is not clear to me is what those killer apps are…

Who is building them? Where are they?

And if the core team put puts together a developer ecosystem, which is an obvious and necessary next step, will developers come? I hope so! It’s very competitive in crypto right now…

@JakeUdell, I understand your skepticism with BitClout.com at the moment. However, I feel there is so much potential within the community that should not be overshadowed by “celebrity” figures. I believe we need to build a solid base of community with what we have before we look towards mass adoption. In addition, we need to as a community, get behind and support killer applications (nodes) that will draw such figures to the protocol. Make note, most nodes are not anywhere close to being completed.

I care deeply about this community and though I may not have the financial means to support every creator I do my best to help keep this platform active and interact with as many amazing people as I can. 👇

I brought dozens of celebrity creators to BitClout... None of them use it.

What does that say?

The current BitClout.com product doesn't have enough users to interest them OR it doesn't have product market fit period.

The vision for BitClout was always bigger than BitClout.com... So who is going to build the product that gets the celebrities to use it? And what will that platform be?

We as an ecosystem must answer this question in order to thrive and prosper.

Love how alive BitClout felt from my last post. ⚡

Seeing people active makes me happy.

This platform's mission to decentralize social media is powerful and important.

The community's strength is the only chance to pull it off... Never forget, you make it happen.

My least favorite part about BitClout is coming back and it seems like nothing has happened? So… Let’s change that.

If you’re reading this, what’s the best thing that happened to you this week? Tell me 👇🏻

Stoked to see @whalesharkdotpro back!

He is the goat and was my favorite content creator on the platform. A lot of my early content here was inspired by his style.

He brought a level of essential credibility to BitClout in the early days.

His return is bittersweet. He was inactive for over 100 days... And there were more promises unfulfilled... As a result, I did sell his coin last week... Pretty much the last one out :(

Selling was my own decision. I realize this a new platform and people are trying new things... And am glad to see him back. 💙
