If you are running SNS, a comprehensive business design that includes monetization strategies is essential. This is common sense in the industry and a key point. However, the process of increasing followers also has a purely enjoyable aspect. When your content reaches more people's eyes—the value cannot be measured in monetary terms. The expansion of influence itself becomes the foundation for building trust in the crypto industry. Increasing followers is not just a number; it signifies deepening connections with the community. That’s why, instead of only pursuing short-term monetization, it’s also important to value the audience growth process—balancing both is what constitutes a sustainable long-term SNS strategy.

You're right, but those who can truly hold on until the end understand the importance of sacrifice and gain. Those who chase short-term profits always die the fastest, I've seen too many cases. Fan count is indeed just a number; what really matters is stickiness, everyone. Monetization is important, but community trust is even more valuable; this order cannot be reversed. Gaining followers is truly enjoyable, and monetization is also real; the two are not mutually exclusive. Why must we choose one over the other? Accounts that rely on hard selling for quick money have all failed. I only trust those that can accompany the community for the long term. Long-termism is heard of often in crypto but rarely seen; most project teams are too impatient.

Ah, that's true, but it sounds a bit like old clichés.

Growing fans is satisfying, but real profit still depends on the system; you can't just focus on playing around. In the long run, trust is more valuable than the number of fans. Wanting quick monetization and slow accumulation at the same time—how to balance that... Community depth > impressive numbers, I agree with that. Monetization can't be rushed; rushing will cause the community to disperse. Focusing on short-term KPI boosts and long-term reputation damage—especially in Web3.

This really hit home for me, but we have to be honest—most people are still thinking about how to cash out first, haha. Wait, he's right. The joy of growing followers can't be bought with money. That feeling of being seen is truly priceless. As long as we don't lose sight of the main goal, community trust is always more reliable than quick income. That's why, for us in crypto, if you can't make short-term gains, you have to think about how to play the long game. Honestly, there aren't many who can balance these two well...

Well, there's nothing wrong with that statement, but the real challenge is how to find a balance between the two. You're right, community trust is more valuable than follower count, especially in Web3. It's another game of accumulation; there's no need to rush. Long-termism is real, but you have to live until that day. Community depth > vanity metrics, got it.

The big players are all chasing short-term gains, but little do they know that the community is the real gold and silver.

That's true, but most people still think about how to cash out quickly first, forgetting that fans are the real asset. Influence on the blockchain is essentially trust. Without building a fan base, how far can you go just by trying to harvest quick gains? Balancing short-term cashing out and long-term operation is indeed necessary; otherwise, nothing will be left in the end.
