In Web3, money never sleeps.

Blockchain operates 7x24 hours; while you're enjoying the weekend, people in the United States are just waking up, which is the peak traffic time.

This is why Web3 is exhausting and also why it makes money quickly.

This week we learned a lot of 'hard skills', today let's take it easy but with more bite—'social hacking'.

We need to find your 'human template'.

The art of mingling—finding your 'prey' and 'mentor'

Do you remember the '何一' mentioned a couple of days ago?

She is the spiritual totem for all ordinary people entering Web3.

But the problem arises: He Yi is too far away. You can't imitate him.

You are a level 0 account just entering the novice village, and she is a top-tier player with full gear.

To quickly enter the circle, you don't need to focus on Musk or Vitalik (the founder of Ethereum); you need to find a few 'boosters'.

You need to find those who entered the circle 6 months to a year earlier than you, are doing well, but haven't become legends yet.

They are your best replication templates**.

1. Why do we use the 'Clone Tactics'?

For many newcomers, the most painful thing is: 'I don't know what to post today.'

It's because you don't have a 'reference frame' in your mind.

If you want to operate, you need to see what those excellent Web3 operators are posting every day;

If you want to do investment research, you need to see how those slightly famous analysts write Threads.

You are not trying to plagiarize their content; you are trying to replicate their 'network sense'.

What time do they tweet? How do they rebut trolls? How do they use hashtags? What is the style of the images?

2. Identify real and fake KOLs: Who is the mentor, and who is the scammer?

When looking for templates, Web3 is full of traps. There are two types of people here:

  • Category A: Builders / Value creators

    • Characteristics: They can write long analyses, admit when they misjudged (sincere), and often share good content from others (generous), with serious discussions happening in the comments.

    • Determine: This is your *"mentor".

  • Category B: Shillers / Traffic beggars

    • Characteristics: The screen is full of rocket 🚀 emojis, constantly posting 'This coin is going to fly, catch up!' or 'Leave your wallet address under this tweet for a giveaway.'

    • Determine: This is the 'scammer'. They live off cutting leeks. Learn from them, and you will suffer greatly.

Remember: you are looking for those who make money with their 'brains', not those who make money by 'fooling' others.

3. Lurking: Spy games in Discord

Besides Twitter (the square), you also need to go inside and see (the community).

The core of Web3 is in Discord or Telegram, now still at @币安广场

Select a few leading projects in your track, infiltrate their Discord, and don't say a word.

Focus on 3 points:

  1. See how Mods (administrators) communicate: When newcomers come in asking silly questions, are the admins impatient or patiently guiding? (This determines the community's tone)

  2. See how FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt) is handled: When the coin price plummets, is the group cursing, or are they discussing fundamentals rationally?

  3. Check activity level: Are real people chatting, or are bots posting 'Good Project' every 10 seconds?

Real opportunities are often hidden in groups where 'although there are not many people, everyone is seriously discussing technology and the future.'

4. Today's assignment: Build your 'Clone Profile'

Task: Identify 3 'replicable objects' and complete a (professional observation report).

Execution steps:

  1. Search: In your field (DeFi/NFT/GameFi), find 3 bloggers with a follower count between 5000 and 50,000. (Too many followers make a big influencer too official, and too few followers make them unreferable; this range has the most vitality and the most genuine interactions).

  2. Anatomy:

    • Review their tweets from the past week.

    • Analyze structure: What are their pinned tweets? Are they personal stories? Or are they collections of useful information?

    • Analyze interactions: Which type of tweets receive the most comments? Are they arguments? Are they giveaways? Or are they deep thoughts?

  3. Archive:

    • Screenshot and save their top 3 tweets.

    • Note beside: "What is good about this tweet? Is it because the title is catchy? Or is it because the charts are clear?"

Assignment delivery:

You should have 3 names in your current memo.

Starting next week, these 3 people will be your shadows.

Whatever topics they talk about, you talk about those topics in your own words;

Whatever projects they focus on, you should research those projects.

Since you don't know the way, you should follow in the footsteps of those before you.
