?? Andrew Tate is a DeFi genius
Gm everyone this is the doodhwala, the only crypto newsletter that’s pumped AF on the first Monday of the new year!
New Year, same energy let’s go ??????
Here’s what we got for you today:
...wait is that ???
?? Andrew Tate is a DeFi guru?
In 2022, these were the most googled people:
Of these trending dudes, only one dropped a course educating people about…get this…crypto and decentralized finance.
Nope, it wasn’t Putin.
It’s Andrew Tate.?
Yup, that bald dude who’s always popping on your Instagram Reels and YT Shorts (no not Baba Sehgal, what kinda shit are you into?) is selling crypto courses.
So, we took a look at it.?
And you won’t believe what we found.?
Where is Tate knowledge bombing about crypto and DeFi?
The crypto + DeFi course is under??Hustler’s University?, which calls itself:
"A way to acquire financial abundance by mastering a high-paying skill, starting your online business, and leveraging modern investment strategies."
And how do they do this? By teaching you skills like:
??
The crypto and DeFi course is called — "MAKING MONEY IN DE-FI" —?and you know it's legit because it's in all caps.
Tate drops his kNowLeDge bOmBs on HU Crypto Sphere, a Discord server will all his "students."
Lol, what’s he actually teaching tho?
Tate teaches 2 things about crypto:
My dude’s first step in ???is setting up an exchange account.
And his recommendation? FTX .
Guess SBF even fooled the top-G who sent thousands of his ”students” to FTX to lose all the money they made. ??
But crypto trading is not where the money is made.
Nope.
That’s in crypto daily newsletters…wait no! ??
It’s in DeFi. In fact, making money in DeFi is soooo eaaasssy, it’s inevitable.
Yes, you read that ???right.
DeFi was obviously going to go up, it was?literally inevitable.
Bro, like wtf? Man’s talkin about DeFi like it’s high tides and low tides.
Does it actually work tho?
Those coins he’s talkin about? All of them went to ???since his DeFi course came out:
???$BADGER: -92%
???$CREAM: -84%
??$ROOK: -96%
Even the bigger DeFi protocols he spoke about didn’t do too well:
???$SUSHI: -90%
???$CAKE: -80%
???$UNI: -71%
Honestly, he’d be better off selling “How to get your ???kicked by an autistic 19-year-old!”
At least, he’s great at that.
Here’s his DeFi?course archived, because Top-G’s Hustler’s University took it down. ??
Doodhwala’s take:?
Anyone who says:
Is SCAMMING YOU! Yes, even if they're all over the internet. ??
3 (not-so-obvious) NFTs trends in 2023
NFTs had a WILD ride in 2022.
From Bored Ape Yacht Club dropping a sneak peek of their highly anticipated game, Otherside…. to Donald frickin’ Trump launching his own NFT collection that had him pose like this:
Gettin’ a major Shaktiman vibe here. ??
But what does the NFT market have in store for 2023? ??
What are the key things to look forward to in the new year?
The obvious ones are :
We all know this. ??
But the doodhwala is all about the not-so-obvious.

So here are 3 not-so-obvious NFT trends to look out for in 2023 (with data):
???DeFi x NFTs
Long-term holders are looking to put their NFTs to good use.
And DeFi will help them out.
NFT lending and borrowing platforms got the spotlight during the peak bull run of 2021.
These platforms basically allow you to borrow crypto like ETH by using your NFTs as collateral.
This is one way to stay “liquid” with an illiquid asset like an NFT.
In early 2022, these NFT lending platforms saw a great spike in their monthly volume with the number reaching close to $50 million! ??
In late 2022, however, the activity started to drop on platforms like BendDAO, Arcade, etc., due to…well, you know what happened.
*cue FTX montage with a sad song playing in the back*
But the borrow volume on these platforms is STILL much higher than the peak bull run.
So, clearly… this is a space that is definitely primed for action in 2023. ??
???Big Brands x NFTs
2022 saw BIG brands with BIG clout dropping BIG doodh dough into NFTs.
Some of the names include:
耐克 (the brand that loves tickin things off a checklist as its logo) ? 阿迪达斯 (the brand with 3 phone network bars as its logo) ?? TIME (the media brand that’s definitely funnier than us) ??
But take a guess on how much these brands made from their NFTs.
It’s in the 8-figure range i.e double-digit millions of dollars.
Nike is leading with a WHOPPING $185 million made from sales and royalties. ??
And the secondary volume on it’s NFTs reached close to $1.3 BILLION! (yeah, its a B)
The brands are like the shark from Jaws, they have tasted the delicious blood and now they are going to come back for more.
???Music x NFTs
The doodhwala bros have been keepin’ an eye (or rather an ear) on the melodious coming together of Music and NFTs.
We wrote about it?here. ??
Sound.xyz, the Music NFT minting platform, reached all-time-high volume in early 2022 and slightly fell off, again, cuz of….*cries in FTX*
But there was a Jon Snow moment, with the volume seeing a slight resurgence since early November.
More artists are realizing that Music NFTs might be a better way to closely connect with their audience and build a tight-knit community. ??
And this is also a trend that will only increase as more people will realize that they can own a piece of their fav song.
Apart from ofc just listening to it on loop and going crazy. ??

Chaach and Charts: Web3 Social is UNSTOPPABLE
Web3 social platforms have been seeing incredible growth in the past few months!
ENS and POAP still remain top dawgs, given their first-mover advantage.??
But other platforms are also gaining momentum:
All of these are coming up BIG! ??
Excited to see how they grow in 2023!
Resourcewala: Finding ALPHA on Discord
Where do the crypto bros live?
I mean, not where they PHYSICALLY live. (there’s no reason for us to know that unless…)
But where do they live ONLINE?
And one of the BIGGEST platforms where crypto bros hang out is…Discord.
Yeah, it's the same platform your 13-year-old “gamer” cousin uses to chat with his CSGO friends.
Discord has become the unofficial home of crypto bros.
Every project has a Discord server these days.
It is the go-to place for:
And now…you can MASTER Discord to find all of these and be a true crypto degen.
