1 Idea From Others
@DeltaV on web3 distribution:
“In Web3, distribution isn’t bought, it’s earned.
@0xJord4n, Marketing Lead at @JumperExchange recently gave a powerful talk on “Community as a Distribution Engine” for founders on Monad.
He broke down why culture, belief & storytelling matter a lot.
Here are the key takeaways 👇
1/ In Web2, distribution = ads + app stores.
In Web3, it isn’t bought, it’s earned. Distribution = community belief + cultural identity.
Adoption won’t come from code or funding alone. It comes when people believe in your story, today and tomorrow.
2/ The Product x Distribution Flywheel
- Product and Distribution both reinforce each other, that's when the flywheel spins.
- The engine behind that flywheel? → Community.
"Some of our best infrastructure builds won’t be code, it’ll be community"
3/ Community > Code
Infrastructure isn’t just validators, bridges, and chains.
The strongest layer is off-chain:
- Culture
- Belief
- Shared identity”
