If Twitter disappeared overnight, what would happen? In an instant, 80% of crypto projects would also disappear, completely falling into silence.

Are you ready to face this reality?

Our Unacknowledged Twitter Addiction

Lately, I've been thinking about this issue. Crypto projects have developed a dangerous reliance on Twitter. We post project launch announcements on Twitter, build communities there, and all our marketing channels start from Twitter. But relying on a single platform is like putting all your eggs in the basket of a capricious billionaire.

Let's be honest, we have become extremely lazy. Twitter provides a quick dopamine fix, making us content with the status quo. We send out a few tweets, interact with a group of people in the crypto space, and then consider our day's work done.

But like any harmful relationship, this dependence is slowly suffocating your project.

True crypto users are not just on Twitter. They are everywhere: on Discord, Reddit, TikTok, Telegram, and on platforms you have not explored because of being too comfortable. The echo chamber effect in the "crypto Twitter" creates a false sense of security, making you think your influence is greater than it actually is.

For most crypto teams, Twitter is not just a platform, it is the entire marketing plan.

"We're killing it in the crypto Twitter space" actually means "We have no idea how to reach real users."

One uncomfortable fact is this: Twitter is just a small town, not an entire city.

Understanding the Real User Journey

Think about how we make even the simplest purchasing decisions. We ask a trusted person or check social media.

Now imagine this: Someone wakes up and remembers a friend mentioned your project. Congratulations! You've just tapped into the Holy Grail of marketing: word of mouth.

But what happens next?

They will do a Google search, visit your website (likely not understanding a word of what's on there), look for reviews and news about you (yes, PR matters). They will delve into your social channels to see what people are saying; they may even check out your LinkedIn page. Only after been through all of this will they decide whether to purchase or engage with your project.

See the issue? This process spans multiple platforms, yet you've been solely relying on Twitter. You've been limiting your "circle of friends."

Your Crypto Project Needs a Platform Beyond Twitter

Here's a challenge for you: In the next 30 days, halve your project's posting frequency on Twitter. Use the time saved to build a presence on two other platforms you've never tried before. (Yes, LinkedIn counts.)

Give it a shot and track the results. If there's no change, you can always go back to Twitter and pretend none of this ever happened.

What do you stand to lose by taking on this challenge?

Just a few tweets with dismal engagement numbers that no one sees.

And what do you stand to gain?

A truly diversified brand that doesn't rely on a single platform, new users, and most importantly, a success story you can boast about for a whole year.

Leaving Twitter might make you uneasy for a while. But trust me, the new relationships you build on other platforms afterward will be well worth it.

Your Marketing Strategy Could Be Meaningless Due to One Change in the Twitter Algorithm

If Twitter were to disappear tomorrow, could your project survive? Let's be honest.

Don't wait for a big setback to understand this lesson; relying on a single platform is like putting all your crypto assets in one wallet. It's reckless and unnecessary.

Diversity is not only a recommendation for your crypto portfolio, but it is also essential for crypto marketing. However, we have always put all our eggs in the Twitter basket, and then acted extremely surprised when the eggs broke.

It's time to say this: "Twitter, we need to talk about expanding to other platforms."

Your future users are waiting for you, just not where you have been constantly looking.

ZachXBT: Humanity private key leak and abnormal surge in H token should be viewed separately

On June 9, according to related disclosures, on-chain investigator ZachXBT posted an update on Humanity’s roughly $31 million security incident, saying that after further analyzing fund flows, he currently tends to believe the project team was not involved in an “inside job” or a self-staged attack. According to him, the official explanation about the private key leak was broadly accurate, but before the token unlock, the price of H had been artificially pushed higher, and the hacker later took advantage of that market environment; therefore, the private key leak and the earlier abnormal price pumping should be regarded as two separate and independent events. This reframing has shifted the market’s understanding of the nature of the incident. Earlier discussion around Humanity had focused on whether the team directly participated in the attack or used the security incident to cover up internal operations. ZachXBT’s latest remarks shift the focus from “whether it was self-theft” to “whether there were pre-unlock market structure issues.” He also questioned whether the team may have.
