By: Max How to Tell Which KOLs Are Providing Alpha and Who’s Selling a Story I’ve been in crypto long enough to lose count of the cycles and slogans. The one that stuck, “this is an attention market”, is both true and useless. We all say it, but we rarely measure it. I’ve been obsessed…

Been a gamer all my life. 4–6 hours a day of playing Rust is pretty normal. But on Valentine’s Day 2025, I found a new game. Super hard, environment expands constantly and players range from absolute noob, to God-level magician-like. It’s a brutal PvP arena and the rewards are better than a normal job or…
