A lot of founders would be better off if they stopped looking at Venture Capital as equal opportunity employment

The point of venture capital is to fund the top .001% of founders to chase the top .001% of returns

If you're trying to raise, look deep within yourself and ask yourself

"Am I in the top .001% at anything that would make someone give me millions of dollars with the expectation that I could fail miserably"

To get funded you need to find a way to stand tf out. I am being this blunt because this is legit how the game is played

Venture is a tough game, nobody wants to invest in your shitty company, until someone with money says, OMG I'll invest, then everyone wants to invest

BUT to get that first check...you need to be a DOG, you need to be relentless, you need to have a special trait/characteristic that makes you undeniable.

Every NFT project is a startup, the reason why most projects fail is because they don't have a sound business model.

You can make money off of secondary sales but secondary is NOT a sound or sustainable business model.

Build something valuable. That's how you win. Sitting in twitter spaces all day is cool for the vibes, many projects did this 6 months to a year ago.

Those same projects are still struggling to find a business model.

BUILD SOMETHING OF VALUE beyond just vibes.

The next evolution of NFT projects will be creators launching PFPs/Collections at a small scale 1000 or less.

Creators showing they can execute at that scale, and then expanding to scale up as it makes sense. Reasoning:

1. It's was easier to connect with a community and scale with that community when the audience is smaller to start

2. Most 10k pfp projects are running out of ideas and can't pivot without pissing most of their community off, smaller collections will be more agile

There should be conversation about how many web3 projects are minting/minted out by leveraging severely botted tweets as the perception of legitimate engagement...it's fraud. I don't feel my time spent here should be leveraged by calling out weird tweets/botting

But I see so many people that fomo into projects without understanding how botted tweets work

So I am going to put you on some game real quick to save your wallets...

Kids between the ages of 4-18 are spending 1.5 hours a day on TikTok

Here are 5 strategies to help you...🧵 1/ Have a target niche of gamer in mind...

If you're building a battle royale, target fortnite, warzone, and apex legends players

spend 30 mins watching tiktoks in those niches and learn what works
