Dünyanın farklı coğrafyalarında yaşayan insanlar, bazı haberleri okuduklarında bir an duraksıyor. "Bu nasıl olabilir?" diyorlar. "Gerçekten mi?" Ama bizim için bu haberler gündelik hayatın bir parçası haline geldi. Türkiye'de yaşanan birçok siyasi ve ekonomik olay, dışarıdan bakanlar için inanılmaz, içeride yaşayanlar içinse sıradanlaştı. Bu yazı, Türkiye özelinde yaşanan belirli bir süreci anlatmakla başlayacak. Ama asıl amacı, bu süreçlerin dünya genelinde tekrarlanan örüntüler olduğun...

Web3 founders love chasing virality. A big influencer tweet, a trending token or a hyped-up NFT mint can bring thousands of users overnight. Feels like success, right? But here’s the truth no one wants to admit, Web3 virality is a myth and most projects that explode overnight vanish just as fast. If your project can’t keep users after the hype dies, did you even grow at all? The problem is simple. Most Web3 projects focus on acquisition, not retention.

Most Web3 tokens don’t fail due to a lack of hype. They fail because of poor tokenomics. Projects pump their tokens with airdrops, staking rewards and incentives, but when the selling starts, demand can’t keep up. So, how do you design a token model that doesn’t collapse under its own weight? By balancing supply and demand the right way. Inflation is a Silent Killer Many projects over-reward early users, assuming it will drive long-term adoption. But if token supply grows faster than demand, ...

In many parts of the world, people pause for a moment when they read certain news headlines. “How is this possible?” they ask. “Is this for real?” But for us, these headlines have become just another part of daily life. Many political and economic events in Turkey seem unbelievable to outsiders - yet for those living inside, they’ve become ordinary. This piece begins by describing a specific process unfolding in Turkey. But the real aim is to show how these events follow recurring patterns se...

Everyone says, "Community is everything in Web3," yet most projects fail at building a real, engaged community.

Bu içerik, şu blogda yazılan makalenin türkçeye çevirisidir. Keyifli okumalar. Bugün içinde bulunduğumuz karmaşaya nasıl geldiğimizi çoğu Amerikalı bilmiyor. ABD hükümetinin 36 trilyon dolar, tüm toplumun ise 102 trilyon dolar borç içinde olmasının nedeni, sistemin tam da bu şekilde tasarlanmış olması. Evet, bu sistem devasa miktarda borç yaratmak üzere kurulmuş. Ancak çoğu Amerikalıya bunu sorsanız, size ne Federal Rezerv’in (Fed) ne olduğunu söyleyebilir ne de neden ekonomik sorunların merk...

Every Web3 project starts with hype and momentum. The numbers look great, engagement is high and users are flooding in. But then… growth slows. Your user base stops expanding, retention drops and suddenly, you’re wondering, what went wrong? If your project has hit a growth ceiling, chances are you’re making one (or more) of these three costly mistakes. You’re Chasing Users, Not Retaining Them Many Web3 projects focus too much on acquisition and not enough on retention. Airdrops, giveaways and...

Bu yazı Caesar Julius tarafından paylaşılan bu makalenin türkçe çevirisidir. Bu döngü tam bir hayal kırıklığı oldu çünkü eski taktikler artık çalışmıyor. Favori coinin bir ayda 10 kat yapmıyor, hatta her gün geri kalıyor (ETH). Bir geliştiriciysen bu daha da sinir bozucu. Ürününü tutkuyla inşa ediyorsun, testnet kullanıcılarından harika geri bildirimler alıyorsun ve TGE sonrası… kimse umursamıyor. Neden? Çünkü token yükselmiyor.
