In the media world there are newspaper called the tabloids such as the Daily Mail, the Daily Mirror, the Sun and the Star. The paparazzi press, publishing a photo of girls in compromising positions getting out of their people carrier before they attend an award ceremony . The gutter press, the rags, the clutches of evil whatever you wanna call them. The papers for the masses who like to read about the latest soap stars wardrobe malfunction or who a model is dating these days. Mary gained weight. That sort of thing. Then you have your Financial Times, New York Times , the Independent, The Business Posts. Dealing in more serious matters such as money, the economy, politics and finance. Stiff Upper Lip media.
It have been on CT (Crypto Twiiter) for years following all the major traders and seeing accounts come and go but I have found over the last year that it has really gone to shite. The bull run has made many millionaires. Well at least they say they are. It's like an Instagram now with photos of Rolls Royces and yachts and all this. But there is now a proper lack of crypto content. One major account on Twitter recently posted that he burst an eardrum while he was lobster fishing on LSD. Madman. M.A.D. That is a cerazzzzzzzzzzyyyyyyy story. You are just too mad. I want to be as mad as you.

The whole Twitter is now a melting pot of narcissism. It is getting ridiculous at this stage. It was bad enough as it was but I'm finding lots of these guys were in the right place and purchased their magic beans a tad earlier than the rest of us, They made millions and have traded poorly ever since but the constant rise in crypto is masking this. There has been a call out for some of these Twitter traders to put their money where their mouth is and back up their talk with photos of trades and many have not been up to the task. Photoshop is a great thing but it can be spotted. The Lord Zog memes are becoming a bit old also. Twitter has gone down the tabloid route but there is a market for a business post or a New York Times niche for serious crypto enthusiasts.
The crypto world now needs a serious site that has serious posts around crypto and finance. A place where posts are immutable so you can read back on a traders tips. It is much harder to delete a post on a blockchain than a tweet on Twitter.
I was on Hive when @leofinance started, the birth of my son got in the way of my posting for a year and I am back now and I see Leo making head waves. I stayed on Twitter but when I came back and checked out all the nooks and crannies around Leo. Learned around liquidity pools and farms etc. I saw a more clever side to crypto. A more decentralised look at things. Posts on Leo are way ahead of Crypto Twitter for example. There are some accounts on Twitter that are talking about decentalised projects but I think Leo are ahead in terms of knowledge in these particular areas. I know it is only 147 characters allowed on Twitter but Leo is better in terms of someone shilling a crypto with graphs etc.
So there is a place for Leo in the market and we have to tap into this. Would a photo of a private jet and a lad sipping a gin be downvoted on Leo? It would be interesting to see. Maybe not if they engaged with the community and posted their trades online for all to see. Some traders I would gladly upvote.
I heard about one project on Leofinance called SEED and I have invested in a little SEED because I find
@empoderat a serious trader and its people like him that will make me come to Leofinance. The regular updates on the trading activity is gold that I look for on Twitter but people on Leo are putting it into action.
I know lots of people who are "all talk and no action". That sums up Twitter in a nutshell while folks at @leofinance are quietly building their foundations and getting results but there is no soapbox yet to stand on. I see this changing very soon indeed.
