Looks like @ukcoachcalipari claimed his account. The NCAA has hampered student athletes ability to monetize their likeness & image forever. Image if people like Anthony Davis, John Wall, DeMarcus Cousins, Devin Booker, etc. could have earned $BitClout while they played for Coach!

Congrats to @Artz for the Social Capital flippening surpassing @chamath on the creator coin leaderboard. Few have done more for $BitClout on & off platform but more importantly it shows that the clout community is judging people for what they do on here not who they are off here

We're seeing multiple use cases of social tokens including (i) Loyalty Points & (ii) Ownership. The former is easy the latter is challenging but where the billion dollar+ unlock comes from.

All of the above should be building on top of $BitClout

BitClout is the purest form of behavioral finance in real-time. Looking at the ascent of people like @craig @jakeudell @whalesharkdotpro @artz @farokh @dharmann vs. those on the platform that are bonafide "celebrities" is fascinating to watch.

As BitClout has grown feels like the global feed has become overtaken by more and more promoters & less & less builders.

Following is one way to filter w/ better curation what's another? How do we get back to the BitClout of old?

What finishes the day higher $COIN or $GS?

$COIN direct listing day. The reference price was set at $250 by NASDAQ which implies a ~$65B market cap. Will be interesting to see where it opens in relation to the $375 it traded at or ~$100B

Where does it close today & how can we set up a BitClout pot for closest to close?

With BitClout north of $175 now the bonding curve for creators that can aggregate an audience is becoming more & more attractive

Another day another podcast discussing BitClout this time the Clouts own @cdixon talking about Social Coins as the next evolution of crypto after NFT's

DeFi only has ~1.0M total users. Social coins have wider cross-over appeal & BitClout is the easiest way to get started

Looking at $BitClout Google Trend Data vs. DeFi & NBA TopShot we're about to witness the flippening

There's $52.1B of total value locked in DeFi & we've seen >$500M of Top Shot sales to date.

BitClout has wider mass / cross-over appeal than both.

In the past two weeks we've seen Patreon, Clubhouse, and Substack all raise at multi-billion dollar valuations. BitClout can power the creator economy platforms of the future by removing intermediaries and allowing for true affinity-based "pricing."

A recent survey asking what kids wanted to be when they grew up:
#1 YouTuber- 34.2%
#2 Blogger/Vlogger- 18.1%
#3 Musician/Singer- 16%
#4 Actor- 15.7%

All of which can be enabled by BitClout. We're in the early innings of the creator economy and BitClout can be L1 for all of it.

When $BTC starts to consolidate like this & volatility drops it tends to be predictive of a move higher...with the current BitClout relative peg looks like we're going higher.

It's been 27D since $BTC registered a "closing high" above $60K (3/13). Looks like consolidation for a move higher which is net positive for the BitClout "peg" for the time being. When $BTC tops it rarely gives you a chance to get out.

The number of YouTubers with >1M subscribers has been growing 65%+/year. The creator economy is one of the fastest growing in the world & BitClout has a superior incentivize alignment model to any other platform to date while removing intermediaries & breaking down the 4th wall.
