AI Robotics Crypto

[Poe Zhao @poezhao0605]

Today I published The China Tech Field Guide, and it is free.

Over the past year, Hello China Tech has covered China's AI, semiconductor, robotics, and EV sectors essay by essay. The Field Guide consolidates that year into six principles. A sample of the argument: in 2025, 764 Chinese AI companies raised a combined Rmb 83bn, and the top 20 captured 30 per cent of it. Capital structure, not technology, decides which firms survive. The state does not referee these markets. It designs them.

If your work touches China tech, the Guide is designed to be the document you send to a colleague who asks where to start. Web and PDF, both free. https://t.co/AQlldvD7aE

@AdamGillman Ecom

[Adam Gillman @AdamGillman]

If I was forced to make $100K/month with ecom in 30 days starting from zero, here's exactly what I would do in 20 steps:

Days 1-3:

Pick the right category and build the foundation

Find a category where the buying decision has a strong trust component — supplements, kids products, beauty, pet, health-adjacent

Validate the market size before touching anything — minimum $500M+ addressable market

Find a white label manufacturer — target 80% gross margins before spending $1 on marketing

Build a 100% subscription offer — no one time purchases ever

Price at premium from day one — $10 signals $10 quality. Never apologize for your price.

Days 4-7:

Build the product and brand

Design packaging that makes customers want to display it proudly — your packaging is your #1 silent salesperson

Build a simple DTC website — no Amazon, no retail, own the customer relationship completely

Offer 50% off month one — this is the highest converting offer structure I have ever tested across two 9-figure businesses

Write 5 core educational pieces about what is wrong with your category — education builds trust faster than any ad

Days 8-15:

Launch influencer machine

Find 25 micro influencers in your category — mommy bloggers if kids, health creators if wellness

Pay flat fees — expect only 10% to convert, kill the other 90% fast

Give them guardrails on what they can and cannot claim — then let them speak in their own voice

Track every post — views, clicks, sales, hold rate. The market is voting every day. Your job is to listen.

Whitelist the 2-3 winners immediately as paid ads from their handle — this is where the real leverage lives

Days 16-30:

Scale what is working

Take winning influencer creative and run it as paid ads — 20-40% of budget behind whitelisted content

Text every new subscriber personally within 24 hours — not a bot, a real human

Let customers customize their order — it raises costs slightly but creates a moat billion dollar companies cannot replicate

Survey every customer who churns — their reason is your next product improvement

Pour everything behind the 1-2 channels converting — kill everything else immediately

The conservative math:

25 influencers × 10% conversion rate = 2-3 winners 2-3 winners whitelisted as paid ads = dramatically lower CAC Lower CAC + 80% gross margins = profitable from month one Profitable from month one = no VC needed, ever

$30/month subscription × 3,000 subscribers = $90,000 MRR At 200 new subscribers per day = $100K MRR in under 30 days

That is the floor.

One viral post can add 500 subscribers in 24 hours alone.

I did this with $0 venture capital.

$103M annual revenue.

$260M exit.

The playbook works.

Comment "ECOM" and I'll send you the full breakdown.

I used to think like this where i would build something easy and it would just make me a ton of money but in reality the chances of that are low your best bet go all in even if you fail what have you really lost? You’ve only gained

[Big Brain Business @BigBrainBizness]

Shayne Coplan, CEO of Polymarket, on why dogfooding your own product is the single best shortcut to building something people want:

Shayne is asked what he thinks it takes for a founder to build a successful company.

He starts by dismantling the fantasy he once had as a teenager:

"When I was in high school, I was always like, man, I'm going to build this side project. It's going to get traction. People are going to give me money, and then I'm going to drop out. And it's going to be like this perfect clean break where I take no risk. Completely did not happen."

Shayne dropped out of college at 18, but what followed was nothing like the smooth ride he'd imagined.

"There were almost 3 years of like complete brutality of things not working and me trying things and me learning different things and running out of money, stressed about rent, like the whole 9 yards."

That stretch taught him the first non-negotiable for any founder: full commitment.

"If you really want to do this, if you really feel like it's your calling, don't half-ass it. Go all in. Don't hedge your bets."

@shayne_coplan continues:

"If you're hedging your bets and you kind of haven't cut the rope and you're like, 'Well, I'm still at this, but I'm trying this on the side, whatever.' That's not how great, durable businesses and products start in this day and age. You got to go all in. You got to give it every ounce you got."

But going all in is only half the equation.

The other half, and the part Shayne believes is the real shortcut, is being one of your own users:

"You have to obsess over your customers and people who are using your product. And just the easiest thing to do to build a product company is to use the product yourself and to talk to your own users all the time and triage between what you learn from your users, what you learn from dogfooding your own product, and your product development cycles."

He ends with a dose of humility:

"It's all I got. I'm still learning honestly."
