Read on Twitter
Over the past few months, both real-life friends and new Internet friends have asked how they can start getting involved in crypto & DeFi more professionally, even as kids my age.
I don't claim to have it all figured out, though I have some personal tricks & tips.

1a) Work on your Twitter!
Twitter is actually *the place* to network in crypto. Aside from the shills and low-effort shitposts, almost every person "in" the space is somewhat active here.
You can easily access founders, investors, innovators, programmers, and more.

1b) Leak alpha or post things that will teach some audience something.
Users will be inclined to follow you, engage with you, and in sm cases, offer you a job.
Take it from Ashwath—or me! Talent is needed in this space: Twitter is where you can find it. https://twitter.com/ashwath_22/status/1387654850683363329

1c) The format I like to use most is threads. For some reason, users in crypto seem to value the thought and effort put into this type of content.
Make sure it's well-formatted and includes visuals where possible. These small things go a long way.

2) Find a group of frens.
I've been blessed enough to have met some awesome people.
Find your tribe. Criticize each other and keep each other on the right track. Don't feel afraid to disagree.

3) Don't feel afraid to reach out to people.
I've noticed that people in DeFi especially are open to talk, especially if you have insights to share.
Founders are open to advice. Investors are looking to learn about new views. And traders are looking for the latest coins.

4) Don't make enemies for no reason - reputation is key.
Too many people in this space stir up controversy for no reason.
If you're looking to break into the space, try and keep things friendly with everyone. Everyone knows everyone in this space.

5) Don't be afraid to ask dumb questions.
No one in this space has it all figured out. There are so many things going on that even those "in the know" don't know all that goes on and are constantly adapting their views.
Ask questions and stay curious. We're always learning.
