Lately, there's been a lot of talk about how crypto Twitter comes across to the mainstream. Here's the thing though—maybe it's not about the platform. Maybe it's about us.

The way some people post, the endless hype cycles, the bridge arbitrage spam... it's gotten ridiculous. You look at active accounts and it feels smaller every month. There's what, 40 solid contributors left? And we wonder why we're not taken seriously elsewhere.

The uncomfortable truth? We're the bottleneck. The community sets the tone. If everyone talking about crypto markets, DeFi protocols, or blockchain tech just talked like actual humans instead of gambling-addled trolls, maybe—just maybe—we wouldn't get laughed out of the room when mainstream media covers this space.

It starts with being honest about what we're doing wrong.
