Do you remember that Friend Tech social room?



That period was truly the wild growth phase of social mining. As a pioneer in Web3 social, Friend Tech may not have become the next big trend in the end, but it certainly sparked a lot of discussions during that cycle. From Nikita's room to the establishment of various KOL channels, and then to the fading of popularity, the whole process was like an accelerated innovation experiment—quick launch, rapid iteration, and swift conclusion.

Interestingly, the exploration of Web3 social applications is still ongoing, just in constantly evolving forms. Every failed project actually accumulates experience for the next generation of applications.

If I had known earlier, I would have rushed in, now there's nothing left Friend Tech is a textbook-level rapid trial and error, quite a pity Back then, everyone really wanted to set up a room to harvest profits Can this thing be revived? I think it's doubtful Accumulating experience from failed projects is just talk; most of them are just Ponzi schemes

Haha, Friend Tech, it was really a carnival back then... Is anyone still using it now? --- It's just a new way to play the same old game of cutting leeks, don't believe in any so-called experience accumulation. --- Speaking of which, there were indeed some interesting discussions in those rooms, but unfortunately I didn't catch them. --- Another flash-in-the-pan project, why is Web3 social so hard to do? --- Nikita's moves were somewhat clever, but the ecosystem didn't keep up. --- Failing projects paving the way for the next generation? Uh... it feels more like providing references for the next wave of leek-cutting. --- True innovation hasn't appeared yet, everything is just copying and pasting the models of predecessors. --- The concept of social mining itself might be problematic.

Haha, someone actually remembers! I also jumped in back then, and the profit was made so quickly. Friend Tech is just like that—comes fast and goes fast. Anyway, I'm just accumulating experience points. To be honest, Web3 social is all about trial and error. If it fails this time, I'll try a different approach next time.

Honestly, it was really crazy back then. Thinking about it now, it feels a bit like a dream. Friend Tech was a textbook-level trial and error, quick in and out, but it definitely enlightened a group of people. Every failed project is paving the way; will the next one be even more intense? It's basically a fleeting moment in Web3, but the story isn't over yet. What about those who jumped on the bandwagon and bought rooms back then? Can you dare to say? Haha

Haha, it really is a farce. How much money was spent to realize that social should have real value? Friend Tech is like a Web3 experiment; if it dies, it dies deservedly. Honestly, we still haven't found the killer app. The next one might be lurking in the corner. Why is Web3 social so difficult? Every time it's just a flash in the pan. Project teams make a fortune, players lose everything—when will this cycle end? The phrase "failure accumulates experience" sounds very "circle," but there's really no other way. Rather than exploration, it's more like the cost of trial and error is fully transferred to users—ridiculous.
