As a newbie in crypto space, all you have heard is Bitcoin this, Bitcoin that.
Always Bitcoin, why not Solana, Ethereum, BNB, and other coins.
Don't get me wrong, these coins are well known but it always Bitcoin over them.
Now, why is that?⬇️
even if you are actually funny, i think you should post a lot less under 10k followers.
and even beyond that even 100k like you can definitely focus a lot more on the value of each post rather than shoot from the hip all the time
that is also exhausting most of the time
i did go through different ''eras'' too and i'm sure i'm gonna go through many more but mainly i've used this app and build up my posting gradually over years i think the game tho is very different now
in 2021 maybe just being here would have been like enough even if you were like mid funny
anyway gud post
The secret reason 99.999% of people fail to grow on here
(If I hurt your feelings, feel free to Video React)
They see .
big accounts like @oxtochi@waleswoosh@ripchillpill VIBE POSTING with great success.
Dozens of posts every single day. Most being very silly and satirical but still pulling in thousands of views
The average account sees this and thinks: “OH WOW that looks EASY! I may not be smart, but surely I can copy Wale and grow!”
Their plan sounds good in theory. But there’s one critical problem…
THEY'RE NOT ACTUALLY FUNNY
I know I’m going to hurt some feelings, but it’s true.
The majority of people on this app are not naturally funny (me included)
> You may think your tweets about feet pics and gooning are hilarious
> Your friends might chuckle at your jokes
But if your posts never hit on X… If you get 2 likes every time… I hate to break it to you:
1) You may not be funny
2) Posting mid tier jokes at a high frequency is exhausting your followers. They see you as a "Spammer" instead of a "Funny guy".
Shtposting is an Art. It’s NOT easy. It requires cleverness + humor + vibrant personality that 99% of people don't have. (Study those accounts above, they have it)
I'll also add that the shtposters are often misunderstood. While it may seem Wale only shtposts, he actually grew his account from writing threads in the early days.
HOW TO GROW ON X IF YOURE NOT FUNNY (like me)
1) Post less.
Focus on quality over quantity.
Focus less about posting about and reacting to every single trend. Focus more about providing value every single time you post.
People will keep your notifications on. Your content will go further when people actually read it.
2) Create actionable content.
Airdrop guides, Yield farming guides, growth hacks etc.
The kind of stuff that helps people win.
The kind of stuff that you would actually read. If you took the time to read here, comment "I would never pretend". (Bonus points if in a video reaction)
The kind of the stuff bookmark and actually read.
3) Don’t have skills? Learn some.
Humor is a skill that some are lucky to be gifted with.
However, if you’re not funny (me), you have to find other ways to stand out.
Analytical skills, creative writing, art, music, video content, legal knowledge, etc
4) Never pretend to be someone you’re not
I know it’s tempting to want to be the funny guy… to vibe post your way to 100k followers
After all, it looks so easy
However, the truth is its much harder than it looks and few are truly gifted enough to pull it off.
Be yourself, put in the work, find your strengths, and flex those strengths on the timeline.
The rest will follow.
