- let me know!👀😂
- what should I invest in next? (wrong answers only)👇🏾
- Good morning! Whatever it is you’re struggling to accomplish just keep pushing! It’ll be worth it in the end😌
- Meant to add in my recent post:
As I’m learning from you all about decentralized social media, I’m going to continue to teach/give away free advice on everything I’ve learned about traditional Digital Marketing (TikTok, Instagram, Facebook Ads, YouTube, Spotify)🔥
I wanna help you guys make whatever dream you have come true! I have 344k followers across IG and 149k on TikTok🤙🏾
- Still learning a lot about decentralized social would love any suggestions on other platforms etc! 🔥
- I know, I know, these little office decorations are cheesy lol😂but those little decorations matter more than we realize.
Imagine a world built on genuine kindness. Dreams wouldn't die under the weight of negativity, and kids wouldn't be sent to fight and die in senseless wars.
Think of all those already walking the path you wish for. What if they extended a helping hand, not for gain, but simply because they care? That's why I give out free social media advice, because I was the one with 200 followers desperate for someone to show me the way not too long ago!!
So before you type that hurtful comment, step into someone else's shoes. Before you ignore the person asking for spare change, remember we all share this fragile world. Empathy isn't some lofty ideal; it's the change we need. Let it start with you.
- Just some quick tips to help some cont3nt cr3ators🔥
- So we all know the number ONE concern for fashion influencers/creators trying to grow a following and post consistently is the COST of all the damn clothes! 😭
So here’s some of my top tips to get around this:
♻️Repurpose!
Don't be shy about rocking the same outfit in different ways. New followers won't know the difference! Change up the editing vibe, or use a different song – it's all about a fresh perspective. Your existing followers? Most of them are scrolling through so much content daily, they probably won't even notice!
🤔Inspo Posts!
You don't need a closet full of new pieces to offer style advice. Pinterest is overflowing with outfit ideas! Create posts like "Outfit Ideas to Upgrade Your Feed" or "Pose Ideas for Guys/Girls". Stay on-brand and save money. Need proof? Check out @lens/tristanvd on TikTok to see how he built his following with this strategy.
🤝🏾Extra Tip: Partner up!
Collaborate with small brands or reach out for gifting opportunities. It's a win-win – you get fresh content, they get exposure.
So, before you blow that tax return on a whole new wardrobe, give these tips a go! 😂
- making content is so much fun…until your post that took you 3 hours to edit only gets 200 views😂
- Are Instagram hashtags officially on their deathbed? 👀 I ditched them completely TWO YEARS ago, so let me tell you why I think so...
☕️ Way back when, hashtags were the key to blowing up on IG. But, I noticed a shift about three years ago – they became more of a liability than an asset. Shadowbans, tanking engagement...you know the drill.🤦🏾♂️
🤔 Out of suspicion, I switched things up. Instead of my usual hashtags, I started sprinkling relevant keywords throughout my captions. And BOOM! 🚀 My posts started blowing up organically again. I’ve seen consistent growth ever since (that is when I’m not hit with burnout, but I’ll give tips on that another day😂).
🔥So, here's my hot take: Instagram's algorithm is crushing on SEO keywords (wanting to be dominant SEO player like TikTok!) and giving hashtags the cold shoulder. Hashtags might be very useful and relevant on TikTok and LinkedIn, but on IG, they feel risky.
⁉️What are you seeing? Is this just me, or are hashtags officially losing their magic touch? 🤔
- POV: me embracing the act broke, stay rich mentality😂😂

SparkNotes version:
🚨Crypto exchange KuCoin and two of its founders were charged with violating anti-money laundering laws by U.S. federal prosecutors.
⛓Homeland Security Investigations Special Agent Darren McCormack called KuCoin "an alleged multibillion-dollar criminal conspiracy."
📉KuCoin’s native token (KCS) dropped by 5% after the announcement.
🚨U.S. federal prosecutors charged crypto exchange KuCoin and two of its founders with violating anti-money laundering laws on Tuesday, saying the exchange operated in the U.S., lied to at least one of its investors about operating in the U.S. and failed to both register with U.S. government entities and maintain an anti-money laundering program.
⛓The U.S. Department of Justice said in an indictment that KuCoin and founders Chun Gan and Ke Tang operated KuCoin as a money-transmitting business with over 30 million customers but did not implement a know-your-customer (KYC) or AML program until 2023 – and even then, its KYC program did not apply to existing customers. Neither Gan nor Tang were arrested, the DOJ said in a press release.
❌The DOJ indictment said that KuCoin did not register with the U.S. Financial Crimes Enforcement Network as a money services business.
🫢Because it did not implement any KYC or AML programs, KuCoin "made itself available to be used, and in fact was used, as a vehicle for laundering the proceeds of suspicious and criminal activities, including proceeds from sanctions violations, darknet markets, and malware, ransomware, and fraud schemes," the indictment said.
💸The indictment pointed to allegations that KuCoin "indirectly received a total of more than $ 3.2 million worth of cryptocurrency from Tornado Cash," a sanctioned crypto mixer. KuCoin was mentioned in criminal filings against two of Tornado Cash's developers, Alexey Pertsev (whose trial in The Netherlands began earlier Tuesday) and Roman Storm (who's set to go on trial in the U.S. later this year).
