If you've been involved with CT in any way whatsoever, you must have come across
@monad_xyz
or their community.
Even before launching, monad community is probably the biggest and most active.
Let's learn how they managed that from the head of growth himself:

Alright fam. Here we go.
Discord TLDR: Bring together small community of obsessed Solana enthusiast.
Midcurve TLDR: Build the Vice of
@solana
(back when Vice was cool). Multiple shows, multiple hosts, all spawned out of our discord.

Pitching your product all the time doesn't work.
Nike doesn't talk about their stitches, Redbull doesn't post about their formulas,
and you don't need to talk about the tech all the time.
Building a story is a better form of marketing.

Something
@intern
learned from
@MrBeast
is thinking about creating the best possible thing.
Many projects like to see what's working for others and copy that.
You shouldn't be restricted by this approach and try to build the best thing rather than trying to one-up others.
Most projects like to look at their community as numbers on the sheet.
But, Monad likes to do things differently
Community is more than just Discord members or likes on a Tweet.

full ep:
Community engagement is not just about replying to community questions.
It's about integrating the community as a part of your Twitter and marketing efforts.
Encourage the community to have fun, create memes and inside jokes, and let everyone have a say.
(8/13)
The collective brainpower of the community will always be greater than that of your marketing team.
Get ideas from the community, try them out, and build a system to get everyone be part of your content plans.

all credit to
@cmsholdings
for giving that guidance as a good person to someone younger who he is employing instead of just shooting it down
think about the straight moral compass it takes to do that pretty often
Markets now have a BASE CASE of 6 interest rate cuts over the next year.
The base case shows rate cuts at every meeting remaining in 2024 starting in September.
Discussions of a 50 basis point interest rate cut have even begun to emerge.
This feels a lot like January 2024 when
