If you are under 20, you are being told to “be the next Kimchi”, or else you will be permanently underclass. This is fake and simply not true. Here are 6 people you should study and, ideally, get as mentors to teach you that there is more than one way to be successful in life. @BigNillCollect This guy is an absolute machine. Not only has he worked at some of the top crypto companies to date, but few know that back in January, he was expecting a newborn while also losing his job. The bounce back? Most people would have collapsed, not him. Fast forward to today, and he has hosted and run one of the major events at Token2049 this month, while doing top work at Blockworks. He is also educating normies on TikTok daily, not by telling them to buy shitcoins, but by explaining how markets work. Get him to teach you networking, BD and people skills. @Tuteth_ I have had the pleasure of working with him for over a month recently. The amount of creativity he delivers daily is something I have not seen very often. He is never afraid to experiment and push ideas forward. Even when an iteration fails, he gets back up and keeps working. An absolute beast and a family guy who will not take no for an answer. Get him to mentor you. @that1618guy There is a theory that only a handful of people can move tokens on CT. I watched him move tokens with a single article that dropped at the right time and went viral. He speaks the languages of macro and the trenches as if they were the same. You rarely find that combination. There is another guy around who calls himself a wizard of macro while dumping $20K mc shitters on his followers from side wallets. 1618guy shows that you can build up skills, make money while maintaining humility. Study him, join his Discord and learn how markets work. @OxSimpleFarmer I have called him big brain several times already. He has proved this year that being early and visionary can pay off big time, including starting new trends and metas. But there is more to him than that. He cares about morals, understands regulatory arbitrage and puts that knowledge into practice. He is not your average dude deploying bundles on pumpfun and calling himself a successful dev. If you want to become a builder, study his moves and get him to mentor you. @justinbebis One of the most charismatic CEOs I have met recently, and I am learning from him myself. He has been on a journey of accumulating knowledge by doing things, not just talking about them. When it comes to showing off his nerd side, showcasing character, being charismatic and selling a vision, he scores highly across the board. These are traits that can help you succeed if you want to start your own company or project. Study the guy and get him to mentor you. @MCGlive This is a collective of great people running daily live events on CT. What makes them special is how they shine a light on real builders and projects that are actually innovating onchain. They do not sell you the casino dream or the idea of becoming some wannabe celebrity trader. Great source of entertainment, but with much higher quality of actionable insights. There are plenty of valuable people in this space who are amazing first and successful at what they do second. Find them, learn from them, and you can get much further in life than by simply trying to become the next “high-end wannabe trader”. Good luck.
