Back From The Dead

Howdy my friend!

You might have thought that I gave up on writing this email, but it’s actually far from that. I’ve been quite busy the last few months, so rather than spam you with bland emails, I decided to hold off and spare you clicks.

For those who are new, welcome! We just crossed 1,000 readers, which is almost more unbelievable than Bitcoin recently hitting $69,000.

As far as other recent news here is a quick rundown in case you missed out:

• There is a new COVID variant on the block…Omicron.

• Small cap and tech stocks are down

• Inflation came in at 6.3%. (likely more)

• Bitcoin, Ethereum, and crypto in general are still volatile

• Facebook changed their name to Meta

• The richest man in the world tweets whatever he wants

Note: If this email is appearing in your spam you can fix that by dragging it to your main inbox.

This add free email is brought to you by Cade Invests, but I would appreciate it if you tell your friend to sign up. (;

Alight Cade, so what have you been doing since you haven’t sent us an email in the last three months?

Well it’s time to spill the beans…

Growing Twitter

One of my main focuses over the last couple months has been to grow my twitter profile. My reasoning behind this was both to increase the income from my profile and add subscribers to this email list.

How have I gone about this?

First, I have made a serious effort to make sure I have new content posted everyday. I do this using a scheduling software called Hypefury.

Though I often tweet things directly, Hypefury has been handy for keeping the content flowing when I am busy with other activates, aka school.

Second, being active in engagement groups has had a very positive impact on my profile.

If you are looking to grow an audience, try putting together a group of individuals that produce quality content and are willing to exchange retweets. Not to mention, these groups become great places for discussions and networking.

Overall, in the last few months we have gone from around 8,000 followers to over 11,000 and generated over 4.8 million impressions.

Thank you all for your support!

NFTs

For those who don’t know, NFT is short for “non-fungible token.” Essentially these are images one can purchase on the blockchain using crypto currencies like Ethereum.

A good friend of mine is the owner of a Bored Ape which is worth over $200k at the moment. He is the one who originally sparked my interest, and has since assisted me in getting started with NFTs.

Hint hint…there might be a guest article from him in the future (;

Check out his Twitter profile below.

One thing that has become clear to me is that there are thousands of worthless NFT projects. The trick is being able to identify which projects actually provide utility to the owners.

From my limited experience here is a quick list of some “blue chip” NFTs you could look into if interested in learning more.

• Bored Ape Yacht Club

• Mutant Ape Yacht Club

• Crypto Punks

• Cool Cats

• CyberKongz

• The Sandbox

As of right now I have not yet purchased a NFT.

When I do, I’ll be sure to include it in an email and explain my reasoning behind the purchase.

Crypto

Let me start by saying, the crypto space it wild.

(and technically NFTs would fall into this category)

I’m not a complete newbie, since I do own some Bitcoin and Ethereum, but beyond that your boy is on the struggle bus.

Thankfully though, I have met a number of people on Twitter that have been extremely helpful in aiding my crypto journey. Those individuals are Dividend Cultivator, Uncommon Yield, and Stephen Wealthy.

They have a ton of crypto knowledge, and are also great guys.

If you are considering branching out in crypto be prepared for the tidal wave of information that’s about to hit you.

There is a lot going on, but in my eyes it’s worth devoting some time to since crypto is likely only going to increase in popularity over the next decade.

Here are a few of the main areas I have been looking into.

• Helium Mining

• ENS domains

• Staking

• Defi

• Other cryptos: SOL, ALGO, MATIC, FLUX

• Best platforms to buy on, etc.

Since it’s been a minute, that calls for extra memes.

Thanks for reading, if you have any questions, comments, suggestions, etc. about the email send me a DM on twitter. See you soon!
