I was already getting ready to sleep late at night, but then a thought suddenly flashed through my mind, so I decided to just do something.

For a KOL or major influencer, content quality is the real hard currency. Influence always comes from output, not from cliques.

To become top-tier is essentially a long-term endeavor—awareness, content, rhythm, and understanding people all need to be refined.

Of course, I’m not fully equipped yet.

In the crypto world, there are basically three things: you know a little more than others, you’re willing to clearly explain those things, and your content can consistently move a group of people. Only when you meet all three can you be called a KOL or major influencer.

Before that, you’re just an ordinary blogger willing to put out content. You must dive deep in one direction, but you need to go deep. Only then will your content have density, and others will feel that you have substance.

Here, I want to recommend a few people I really, really like. I love reading @CryptoPainter, @0xBeyondLee, and @crypto_pumpman’s articles—they really teach me a lot.

And I’ve always believed in this saying: the deeper you write, the clearer your understanding becomes.

The more you write, the more you realize what you don’t understand.
The more you analyze, the more you push yourself to fill in your blind spots.
Content, at its core, forces you to grow.

People who produce content long-term become more and more steady, and fans will naturally follow. You’ll realize: writing isn’t about expressing yourself—it’s about forging yourself.

There’s another point I think is pretty important: positioning is ten times more important than hard work.

You must be very clear about this: Who are you writing for? What unique value can you provide that others don’t? What “label” do you want others to remember you by?

And every sentence you write, every time you take a stance, every like you give, all gradually build your image.

Truly “big” accounts slowly turn themselves into a “public tool.” You don’t need to be perfect, but you need to be clean, reliable, and stable.

Trust is built up over time.
Collapse happens in an instant.

When your content starts to have impact, you’ll be noticed.
But what’s truly powerful is the ability to amplify value.

And don’t just focus on the big influencers. They get @’d a hundred times a day—you’re just noise. Instead, you can comment under their posts to share your views, or reference their ideas.

It’s not about sucking up—it’s about letting them know you have substance.

When the big shots look at you, there are only two types of feedback: “bootlicker” or “I see my younger self in you.”

Which do you want to be?

KOLs aren’t chosen—they’re monks on a hard path. Content is the fairest form of effort.

I’m still on my journey, and there’s a lot I haven’t done well. Thank you for your patience, and please continue to guide me.
