Never bought a single impression. Not one.

No paid boosts through those farming tools everyone's using. No board manipulation. No artificial activation campaigns. Zero.

Every view? Organic. Every engagement? Real.

Here's what gets me — watching creators in this space literally pay for fake numbers. It's embarrassing. You're building on a foundation of nothing. Chasing metrics that don't translate to actual influence or trust.

Genuine reach takes time. It takes consistency. It takes content people actually want to see. But that's the only way that matters.

Stay real or don't bother.

People who never buy data will never surpass those risk-takers. Honestly, this logic is correct, but it's too idealistic.

Well said, this is the real player mentality. Those who spend money on data should really reflect and reflect.

The logic is sound, but I need to add some data—have you calculated the marginal cost of organic growth? Compare it to the ROI curve of buying impressions; is it really cost-effective?

Well said, I'm really tired of seeing those who fake their stats. It's obvious at a glance who's been boosted by bots.

To be honest, this logic also holds true on-chain. Some LPs just throw money to buy liquidity depth, but as soon as the arbitrage opportunities disappear, they run away—it’s no different from buying fake followers. Real capital efficiency requires accumulation over time.

ngl this hits different when you think about gas fees eating your actual earnings anyway... why pay for fake engagement when network congestion already kills your roi calculations? seen too many creators tank like miners did back in '17, building on sand
