In December 2020 I used X (formerly Twitter) to share a mix of market predictions, community‑building chatter, and promotional offers. The tone was hyper‑optimistic, often quoting influential figures to amplify bullish sentiment and stimulate HODL behavior.
- Prediction: “2021 Prediction: All 2021 predictions will be wrong.”
These posts illustrate three strategic decisions: (1) Highlighting Indian crypto momentum to rally domestic founders and investors, (2) Using ultra‑hyperbolic price targets ($150k BTC, $20k breach) to motivate HODL, and (3) Deploying limited‑time discount codes ("30off") to drive conversions for my educational membership suite.
Open questions from this period include: how the "30off" promotion affected sign‑ups, whether the $150k BTC hype altered holding rates, and if the Indian‑centric messaging translated into measurable funding for Indian crypto startups.
- Hyper‑price target: “When $BTC gets to $150k, I will buy The Hamptons…” (quoted @chamath)
- Milestone: “The price of #Bitcoin just surpassed $20,000 for the first time in history!”
- Liquidations: “1000s of traders were liquidated for the past 24h, worth $1 billion across major exchanges.”
- Geographic note: “#India just entered the race directly on 3rd spot.”
- Promotion: “Use code "30off" to get 30% off memberships.”
