Well, I strongly disagree with this take.
Beaks is a 1111 supply project and obviously everyone wants a spot. If I start giving spots to everyone I’m cool with just because of relationships or favors, then what exactly are we building in this space?
Wanting a whitelist spot simply because you’re close to someone on the team, without bringing any value or support to the project, doesn’t really make sense to me.
In fact, if your friend is part of the team, you should even want to support them more instead of sitting back expecting free allocations.
I’ve had KOLs and friends reach out to me too, and I told everyone the same thing
earn it the same way others are trying to earn it.
It wouldn’t be fair for me to hand spots to people saying they’re “not in the mood to tweet” while others are out here grinding hard on X every single day.
Well I don’t work that way I’m sorry to the friends not happy
Probably why people don’t like me but work is work
Others result to fud when they don’t get what they want
Relationships matter, yes, but they shouldn’t override fairness or effort.
Sad to see this is even a take tbh. Is this really supposed to be a tweet?
i believe favors in this industry are strongly tied to the type of relationships you build with people.
for example, if I were the collab manager for a Beak NFT and Tochi asked me for a whitelist spot, I’d probably give it to him without hesitation because of the relationship we’ve built and the reputation he has in the space.
i can’t start telling him to go write a thread or create art just for a single whitelist spot eps when, as a collab manager i’ll most likely have multiple spots allocated to me anyway.
