In Web3, your network is your net worth—but only if you build it right. Stop showing up in spaces just to pitch connections or ask for favors. That's not networking, that's just noise. Real connection-building happens when you bring value first, engage genuinely, and let relationships develop naturally. Whether you're in Discord communities, Twitter Spaces, or DAOs, the playbook stays the same: be someone worth knowing. Lead with curiosity, share insights, support others. That's how you actually become part of the ecosystem.

That's true, but the reality is that most people are still stubbornly pushing their own projects haha

Always hearing this set again, but the real issue is that most people have little to no value to offer. --- First ask yourself if you have real skills, then talk about networking. --- Sounds nice, but in the crypto world, who doesn't look at your wallet before your character? --- Value, value—at the end of the day, it's still about having tokens you can actually get. --- This kind of argument can be heard every month, but it's still that group of people making money. --- Building relationships is fine, but don't really expect to get something for nothing.

Well said. Now, Discord is full of freeloaders, asking every day if they can get a referral. It's really annoying.

That's right, that's exactly how it is. I have a bunch of people around me asking every day in the group if there are any internal referrals or opportunities, but I have nothing real to say...

Really, it's all nonsense, but it does hit the point. The problem is that most people simply can't do it; they all want a quick flip.
