Exactly 1 year ago, I bought my Bored Ape and started this Twitter account.

Since then, I've:

- grown from 0 => 20K followers
- advised multiple web3 projects
- started my own web3 projects

Here are my 16 biggest learnings from year 1. 🧵👇
1/20

This 🧵 is for anyone who believes in a web3 future and wants to dive deeper into the space. I cover:

1. Growing a Twitter following
2. Advising a web3 project
3. Creating your own web3 project
4. Trading JPEGs
5. Keeping your sanity
2/20

1. GROWING A TWITTER FOLLOWING

Lesson #1: Starting from 0 followers? Buy a NFT with a strong community — your asset is more than just a $$$ investment.

Buying a BAYC helped grow my follower count via #apefollowape which is why I still follow new BAYC accounts today.

Is #ApeFollowApe still a thing? Just aping!

Here’s my ApeCoin DAO proposal for @apedotfi.

Category: Ecosystem Fund Allocation
Author: @ApeFi_Caesar, Ape Finance
ABSTRACT
Ape Finance is building DeFi for the metaverse, centered around ApeCoin. Currently ApeCoin holders can borrow ApeUSD against their ApeCoin, giving ApeCoin holders more utility without selling ApeCoin.
ApeFi is seeking a 250,000 ApeCoin grant from the ecosystem fund to further build out ApeFi, with funds going toward security audits, protocol owned liquidity, and general overhead.

I decided to mint #OtherDeed and purchase more on secondary

Let me tell you why I see 💪 5-15x upside and limited downside:

A fundamental TradFi approach to valuing metaverse land NFTs - in this case #Otherdeed from the @OthersideMeta @BoredApeYC @yugalabs🧵:
Investment summary
🔹Dream the dream: premier metaverse gaming asset producing economic value
🔹305APE or 2.2ETH mint, 100k supply
🔹Upside 5x to 12ETH
🔹Bull case 15x to 32ETH
🔹Downside to 2.6ETH
🔹Misunderstanding is high: new issuance, multiple product catalysts
/2
“What” is this? In short, these are plots of digital land in a new metaverse created by @yugalabs

🙏 Props to the many creators dropping alfa with great background and context this past week @JayLow @ArdonLukas @davidgokhshtein @CapetainTrippy @farokh

#NewNFTProfilePic Hey check out my new hex profile pic! Is it really true that #apefollowape? You can tell I ACTUALLY own this NFT because Twitter’s hex says so!!
Or... do I? Look closely. Yep - it's a hex. Not a cropped picture like the infamous scammer @NateAlexNFT. It's a bona-fide @TwitterBlue #NFT profile pic!
But wait - click or tap on it. Double check. Yep, #6. Collection logo matches. "View NFT details" shows the metadata. Tweed suit, Bored mouth, Cream fur... all there.

The #BAYC DAO will transfer ownership of the #BAYC brand and IP from Yuga labs to the community pushing the price of OG apes to 10M USD.

Here's how and why.
In order to understand the DAO you need to understand the $APE token drop. Membership in the DAO will be granted to #BAYC apes and mutants as well as holders of the $APE token. See my bullish post on $APE for more details.

The #BAYC brand and IP is currently owned and controlled by Yuga Labs and is worth tens of billions of dollars. On January 3rd, Yuga Labs announced they would transfer this asset to the community via the DAO.

Why I’m bullish on #BAKC and bought two Doggos:

A thread 🧵...

TLDR: The supply / demand set up is bullish. Various thematic catalysts + lower entry price = attractive opportunity to participate in the ongoing success of the @BoredApeYC franchise.

#BAYC #MAYC #BoredApeYC ImageImage
1. Global attention & curiosity in the YC continues to grow:
 
Searches on #NFT are now > than #Crypto.
 
Attention in BAYC continues to rise and remains correlated to price.

BAYC is becoming a leading web3 global metaverse / lifestyle brand.
This wave is not stopping 🌊. ImageImage
2. Attractive Value & Entry Price:

If you want exposure to the @BoredApeYC franchise but don’t want an Ape (E75) or Mutant (eE15) BAKC offers a second derivative.

For E5.5 you can be part of one of the strongest communities and inherit similar social capital. ImageImageImage

I joined @BoredApeYC yesterday and received 100+ #BAYC follows. Thanks for the warm reception! I DM'ed on Twitter to ask for advice on joining the community. Here's what I've learned! 👇

#apefollowape
1. Get a hardware wallet. Never share seed phrase, QR code, or password. Don't click links in DMs/Discord. 5 apes stolen in 2 weeks alone. Read 🧵on securing NFTs by @punk6529.

h/t @Ryder3332, @baccredited @chefdrst @cryptoclawd22 @Accumul80r @ij_will

2/ Keep learning. Join different discords to get diversified opinions. If curious about ANYTHING, ask other Apes for help. They'll help, guaranteed. Follow great Twitter minds like @Zeneca_33.

Super excited to join @BoredApeYC today. I've been thinking a lot about #BAYC. Took me awhile, but I think I finally understand it. Any advice for someone new is welcome! #apefollowape

Here's what I've learned. A thread 🧵: Image
Sapiens came to dominate the world because it is the only animal that can cooperate flexibly in large numbers.

We've been able to do this because of our unique capacity to believe in Fiction.

To believe in Stories.
When we collectively believe, we achieve the impossible. Religion is a story. Nations are a story. Corporations are a story. Technology is a story.

When we collectively believe something has value, it has value. Money is a story. Bitcoin is a story. @BoredApeYC is a story.

Something significant is happening to IP creation and @BoredApeYC is the tip of the spear. I had to jump aboard and got #MAYC #21380! #BAYC #apefollowape #WAGMI (and have fun)

Read on for a snapshot of this new world 👇🏽
1) The creator @yugalabs has outlined an exciting roadmap including games, an IRL bar in Miami and more. There’s already been $1B+ in secondary trading volume
2) Their breakthrough NFT innovation is that owners receive commercial rights to their ape. Name it, create backstory & launch almost any creative project around it. That’s like Marvel letting you build a Spiderman game without asking. There's now 100+ projects including:

This is it. I ape in. @BoredApeYC
#apefollowape

Treat me like a fool, that’s my fuel.

I am becoming obsessed about NFTs. This is like achieving the vision i have worked on since 2009.

In 1994, age 21, I created a web agency in Paris. I was treated like a fool.
2/ In 2009 I partnered exclusively with Facebook to offer digital, instant API, facebook currency (facebook credits), offering the virtual currency as an incentive. I was treated like a fool.
3/ 2021, i spend my nights and week ends thinking about NFTs and I firmly believe this is the most transformative ecosystem since the web and the mobile. Treat me like a fool

That’s my fuel.

What i like the most about NFT’s ? Among so many topics my preferred are

0/ Some fellow @BoredApeYC apes asked for a general guide to NFTs on @solana. As a new member of @BoredApeYC but early SOL user I wanted to help some of my fellow apes get set up.

🧵🧵🧵 👇👇👇 #apefollowape #apetogetherstrong #mayc #NFTs #SolanaSummer #Solana
1/ Firstly, get an @FTX_Official or @ftx_us account to buy $SOL and transfer it to your phantom wallet free of charge. Tx are completed in <5 secs and best of all cost ◎0.00001($0.001)... say goodbye to painful ETH gas fees!
2/ Download & set up @phantom web-extension wallet.
- Connect & use a HARD wallet to store your main stack
- Use the @phantom-assigned SOFT wallet to participate in NFT mints. It ringfences your main stack in case you ever accidentally click a scam link:

[1] Upcoming 11 August 2021 AEDT

I'm about 4 beers deep after a long day of work so let's see where this goes.

People have been asking how the 'Significant Twitter Followers Number' metric works - and the answer is, it doesn't really. Image
[2] by itself, the metric is probably as arbitrary as it could be. I will probably fiddle with how it works in the days to come - but right now, it's just me scrolling the project's twitter followers and identify accounts that are have (1) 2K+ followers; and (2) the accounts are
[3] followed by people that I trust / also follow. This is only my third day doing this so expect changes to come! If anything, the metric just adds colour to the other numbers.

90% of Avatar projects will be forgotten.



THREAD: Some thoughts on spotting the ones that won't
⬇️
Human beings need to belong, now more than ever.



In 2021, internet communities are primed to fulfil this need.

With the recent success of #BAYC, the # of available options has skyrocketed.

Unless you have ETH to 🔥, consider these:
Artwork:



Great artwork is the MINIMUM requirement. It’s not enough.



For most 10k mint projects this means trait variation is wide, and easy to discern visually.

Tip: 🚨 Avoid pixel art (unless it's a PUNK) 🚨
