Gm, friends! One thing I have been thinking about lately is why I love Twitter so much? The simple answer is that it’s a forum that is hyperfocused around certain interests. Here you will find the people you won’t meet in real life. So in this newsletter I want to discuss what rabbit holes does to you and the leverage it gives you to find like-minded people and also a potential partner.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading your story, and I can completely relate to it! Thank you for sharing.
Just to let you know, I live in Sweden and originally come from the South of France, so I understand the struggle with the less-than-ideal weather.
If you ever decide to leave Norway, I believe it will broaden your horizons, and if you choose to return home, Portugal is only a 3-hour flight away, as you mentioned!
Impressive how I related to your post. Twitter really is where some of the brightest minds gain recognition among the wider audience.
Social media platforms are like funnels. Taking the example of cryptocurrency projects, a large portion of data and information primarily originates from discussion groups on Discord or Reddit, which end up being correlated and enriched, thus achieving a massive potential to spread on Twitter.
Information is the best commodity. In other words, if you want to be at the top of the information pyramid, Twitter isn't the best tool for that.
People are drawn to follower numbers. Most of them won't follow an account that produces quality content but only has 1,000 subscribers. There are many people smarter than you or me who have already tried to start the same thing you're doing today.
Many of them persist and don't grow, but they continue because the purpose isn't financial. It's a way to externalize, record, and preserve acquired wisdom. After suffering, the best teacher is the act of teaching something.
My tip for using Twitter more efficiently is to develop the skill of filtering out these "anonymous" players who provide extremely high-quality content but are seen by only a few people.
In reality, they don't gain recognition because they don't use growth strategies. The focus is entirely on quality, as the content is made for themselves.
Great post, thanks for sharing. It actually resonated a lot with me, also reached my goals around the same time and decided to double down on "work" instead of chilling. Also live in Norway (used to live in Indonesia and South-Africa, definitely good escapes for the harsh winter :P), so if you're keen, we could meet up and share some stories (and alpha ghehe)! DM'd you on Twitter too
