Here are the six simple steps to follow if you want to start making some cool money from the Web3 space.
Step 1: Set Up Your Web3 Toolkit
Before diving in, you’ll need a few essential apps and tools. These will help you stay updated, manage your crypto, and connect with communities:
- Wallets: Download a crypto wallet like Phantom or Solflare to store and manage your digital assets.
- Telegram: Join Web3 communities and stay updated on projects.

- X (Twitter): This is where most Web3 updates, job offers, and networking happen.

These tools are crucial for staying informed and finding opportunities to make money.
Step 2: Learn the Basics of Web3 and Blockchain
If you’re completely new to Web3, start by understanding the basics:
- What is Web3?: Web3 is a new version of the internet built on blockchain technology. It gives users more control over their data, money, and online identity.
- What is Blockchain?: A blockchain is a digital ledger that securely records transactions in blocks. Once data is added, it cannot be altered.
Take time to research and familiarize yourself with these concepts. Follow educational accounts on X (Twitter) and join spaces to learn more.
Turn on notifications for those accounts so you don’t miss their posts or spaces. Focus on joining Twitter spaces, reading threads, and absorbing as much information as possible.
Step 3: Build Your Web3 Persona
To stand out in Web3, you need to look and act the part. Here’s how to brand yourself:
- Profile Picture: Use an NFT or a cool avatar from platforms like Pinterest.
- Username: Choose a unique, easy-to-read handle. Make sure it’s not already taken.
- Bio: Highlight what you offer, the projects you’ve worked with, and what you’re building. If you’re new, keep it simple and update it as you gain experience.
- Pinned Post: Showcase your best work or a thread with high engagement.
- Timeline: Post Web3-related content, research findings, motivational quotes, and “GM” (Good Morning) posts. Keep your post-to-retweet ratio at least 2:1 to avoid looking like a bot.
Step 4: Engage and Grow Your Network
Web3 is all about community. Here’s how to grow your presence:
- Join Spaces: Participate in Twitter spaces, request the mic, and contribute to discussions. This will help you learn, build connections, and get noticed.
- Interact: Engage with posts, ask questions, and share valuable insights.
- Choose a Niche: Decide on a specific area of Web3 (e.g., DeFi, NFTs, gaming) and focus on building expertise in that niche.
Step 5: Land Your First Web3 Job
Even with a small following, there are plenty of entry-level Web3 jobs you can start with. Here are some examples:
- KOL Manager: Connect projects with the right influencers.
- Chat Engager: Keep community chats active and engaging.
- Moderator: Maintain order and welcome new members in communities.
- Community Lead: Oversee community growth and engagement strategies.
- Collab Manager: Foster partnerships between projects.
- Social Media Manager: Handle a project’s social media accounts.
- Content Writer/Ghostwriter: Create threads, articles, or other written content.
- Raider: Engage with a project’s social media posts to boost visibility.
- Graphic Designer: Create memes and visual content.
- Video Content Creator: Produce engaging video content.
To land these jobs, you’ll need to get in early with new projects. Join their Telegram or Discord communities and apply for roles. Don’t be afraid to reach out via DMs or open a ticket in their Discord. The worst they can say is no, and every rejection is a learning opportunity.
Step 6: Find New Projects and Opportunities
Here’s how to discover new projects and job openings:
- Scroll X (Twitter): Look for new projects on your timeline or under influencers’ posts.
- Use Hashtags: Search for hashtags like #shillme or #shillmeyoursolproject.
- Engage in Comments: Many projects promote themselves in the comments of popular posts.
