Big fan of Moe. Simple but good advice to keep in mind when selling.
1 piece of advice from me
Some quick thoughts on friend(.)tech:
Right now it’s the fun shiny toy of Crypto, with the tease of an airdrop, it will last a bit longer than most in the attention era
Long-term as a product, there could be some potential usecase, similar to OnlyFans being locked content — just a lot of concerns about legal stuff (literally treating people as shares, funnily enough renamed to keys now)
Distribution and onboarding isn’t as bad as everyone says, but definitely won’t be what retail comes with (they shipped, will improve, etc.)
Most activity right now is speculation VS paying for actual content in the chats (which is supposed to be the main thing) — medium to long-term this is never good
A lot of “big influencers” are not worth the price people are paying now, or the price others will pay over the next month, it is more of a hype thing to say “oh look at how we attracted such big people to this new app!!” (MARKET WILL REPRICE)
