@nicholas outlines how he used Claude Sonnet 3.5 to build a game called NFT Flappy Bird, where players can use any NFT from their collection to play. Check out the post to watch a video of how he did it and read his key takeaways from this experiment.
Community Management: A Role-lercoaster
@micah dives into the crucial role of Community Managers in crypto/NFT projects.
Community Managers bridge the gap between the community and the team, facilitating communication, gathering feedback, and ensuring community engagement. They play a key role in driving product adoption and market influence.
Despite the challenges of managing community expectations and dealing with occasional negativity, Community Managers are invaluable in fostering a supportive and thriving ecosystem for artists and creators in the web3 space.
Rethinking Collect as the Like button
@tomu explores why collecting should be a premium feature, a more meaningful action than being the new like button. Collecting pieces should be used selectively, as a way to define interests and onchain identity.
@bfg makes the case for why a more meaningful form of reciprocity is essential in the crypto/web3 space. Rather than superficial follow-for-follow exchanges, deeper bonds are formed by longer comments on meaningful topics or questions, by respectful disagreement, by asking questions, by digging deeper into answers, and by being genuinely interested in people.
@naomiii shares how her lifelong passion for reading, influenced by family, continues to shape her personal and professional life, and why she wants to inspire others to embrace reading.
