In 2025, Web3 and artificial intelligence have created an unimaginable scenario just a few years ago: today, a single person can generate a continuous flow of value without relying on any institution. It’s no longer science fiction. Anyone who possesses an on-chain identity, masters AI tools, and maintains consistent productivity can transform into what industry experts call a “super individual.”
The Silent Revolution: Why Now?
We are living through a historic moment where power is shifting downward. Artificial intelligence has dismantled the value of pure specialized knowledge—anyone can now obtain analysis, code, content with a well-formulated prompt. Simultaneously, blockchain technology has liberated financial sovereignty from middlemen: your wallet is your bank, and your transactions require no permissions.
When these two forces intersect, something extraordinary happens: the individual acquires what was previously the exclusive prerogative of large organizations—the “systemic power.” A digital creator skilled in AI and Crypto is no longer just a producer but a mini-ecosystem that produces, invests, analyzes, and self-propagates.
The fundamental difference? The old system required a hierarchical structure to scale. Today, a single person with the right tools can do what teams of twenty used to do.
Three Archetypes of the Web3 Super Individual
The Content Creator: from Influence to Economic Sovereignty
Web3 has transformed the profession of the digital creator. It’s no longer just about accumulating followers and selling ads. Crypto projects actively allocate investment shares to leading creators—the so-called “round KOL” is now standard practice.
What does this mean in practice? If you own a conscious community and maintain a credible voice, founders see you as the direct bridge to their target users. Your influence becomes a tangible financial asset. You’re not just selling attention; you’re negotiating early access to market opportunities.
With AI, content production shifts from “manual effort” to “automated flow.” You can ask tools like Gemini or Claude to conduct in-depth research, generate article outlines, or even produce complete drafts for you to improve and personalize. The real added value becomes your judgment—what you choose to amplify, which narrative you promote, which patterns you recognize that others miss.
But there’s a hidden cost: every misjudgment costs you credibility. Long-term creators share three common traits. They produce content at a predictable and sustainable cadence ( not “trendy” ). They anticipate market cycles. And—this is crucial—they know their own boundaries and do not overstep them.
The Founder: from Solo Entrepreneur to Architect of the Future
If the creator moves resources through cognition, the founder solves problems. And here, AI completely changes the game.
In the past, launching a project meant assembling a team: finding developers, designers, operations managers, coordinating, delegating, paying salaries. Today? A founder who masters AI can guide the entire process alone.
It’s not magic; it’s simply that AI drastically reduces coordination costs. You can use Cursor to generate commented smart contracts, Gemini for system architecture, Claude for documentation. Of course, you need to supervise, debug, and course-correct. But the dead weight of “finding and coordinating talent” disappears.
A one-person new-economy company is no longer an experiment; it’s a solid strategy for rapid initial accumulation. Maintain full ownership, avoid equity dilution, and scale vertically as you demonstrate traction.
The Trader: from Russian Roulette to Systematic Strategy
A good traditional trader relied on experience, instinct, months of manual backtesting. The new approach is to turn intuition into code.
Even without programming know-how, Vibe Coding allows you to describe your trading logic in natural language: “Notify me when volume changes by x% while a whale transfers funds.” AI generates the scripts. Robots execute 24/7. You focus on evolving the strategy, not on execution.
From here, the scaled trader becomes a hybrid entity: not only profitable trading but also market commentary, managing a community of interested followers, providing signals. It’s what you call a “compound advantage”—trading income plus the value of your voice mutually amplify each other.
The Four Skills That Separate Super Individuals from Amateurs
1. Content Productivity
It’s not vanity. In Web3, content is currency. Not for traffic— for cognitive influence. A well-written thread remains an asset for months. An article that clearly states a position becomes a reference. The best content shares a common trait: it says something no one else says, with that level of precision.
AI does not replace judgment here. It only amplifies those who already know what to say.
2. On-Chain Sensitivity
Whale movements on Etherscan. Liquidity changes in DEXs shown on Dune. Revenue trends of protocols on DefiLlama. These are early signals that mass sentiment has not yet captured.
You don’t need to become a data analyst. You need to learn to read these dashboards, build a personalized interface, verify your insights against data. It’s like developing an early-warning system for the market.
3. Collaboration with AI as Infrastructure
Tools (ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, Copilot) are not “extras.” They are as essential as your laptop. Those who do not actively integrate them into their workflow are already at a disadvantage. Use them for content research, prototyping, debugging, analyzing projects. The limit of what you can achieve is proportional to your creativity in deploying these tools.
4. Independent Judgment
This is the skill that cannot be automated.
In a market saturated with contradictory signals, the real discriminator is: can you form autonomous opinions and correct them when you’re wrong? Or do you follow the hype of the masses?
A true super individual has a personal evaluation system. What does “good project” mean to him? How does he decide if a position was a mistake? How does he stay clear-headed during FOMO? How does he practice DCA without stress?
These trivial details separate those who accumulate wealth from those who accumulate anxiety.
The Concrete Flow: From Idea to Product in Hours
Let’s take Vibe Coding as a case study. It’s the bridge that allows non-programmers to become builders.
The vision is simple: describe your idea in natural language, and AI generates the code. It’s not for enthusiastic beginners nor programming gurus. It’s for anyone who refuses to accept the status quo.
The workflow:
Register on GitHub, Vercel, Google Cloud. Install Antigravity.
Open Gemini 3 Pro and say: “Create an app that aggregates and prioritizes Telegram flows for crypto trading.” AI generates the project structure, frontend, basic components.
Collaborate with AI: “Add an alert feature,” “Debug this error,” “Change the UI color.” AI reviews and improves.
When satisfied: “Upload the code to GitHub and create a repo.” Then go to Vercel, import the repo, AI suggests environment variables, click Deploy.
In two hours, you have a live MVP. What does this represent? The true future’s competitive moat is not “knowing how to code,” but “being able to turn an idea into a minimal product without a team.”
Voices of the Builders: What Those Who Have Done It Already Teach
Zhixiong Pan (@nake13) notes that Vibe Coding is not just a tool but a mindset. “Self-motivation” is a prerequisite. It’s not a method for beginners; it’s a path for those who intend to guide themselves.
Xiaomao (@porounclemao) summarizes: the “super individual” is the ordinary person who reclaims sovereignty in the AI + Crypto era. The core is twofold—master AI as a cognitive multiplier, and control your assets via wallet. He proposes five phases: awakening, balance, autonomy, compound interest, infinite game. Wealth is only a byproduct. The real result is continuous self-evolution.
Teddy (@DeFiTeddy2020) observes that democratization is already here: anyone can now be a high-performing content creator (AI levels the learning curve), anyone can launch a project (Vibe Coding lowers barriers). Previously, these were exclusive talents. Now they are skills that can be acquired.
Fengmi (@KuiGas) radicalizes: the super individual is the one who controls the rhythm of their life. Not doing what one wants—still dependence on desire. Being able not to do what you don’t want— that’s freedom. He did it: from corporate manager to Web3 creator, choosing “extreme monotony and simplicity,” accumulating freedom through compounding. The recipe? “Do simple things repeatedly. Persist in repeating what you do.”
Star (@starzq) offers a clear mental leverage: if the leverage to enter big tech is AI, the leverage to become a super individual is Crypto. Why? Crypto allows global arbitrage (trading USD from anywhere), access to interesting yields via stablecoins, lowering the threshold for FIRE.
Wang Xiaolou (@wang_xiaolou) shares his system: input from WeChat Official Account, Twitter, community. Processing via Youmind and NotebookLM. Output in articles, tweets, videos. A closed, self-perpetuating loop.
The common denominator of all these different voices? The super individual is not born with special talents. They are simply someone who constantly produces, actively uses tools, and self-improves over time within uncertainty.
The Root of Anxiety, the Solution of Creation
Many people lose in this market because they are driven by chronic anxiety. Fear of losing during a bull run, fear of losing money during a bear. They can’t calibrate their positions. The mind follows events, not strategy.
The root? You are only a “value owner,” not a “value creator.” Your only income is the fluctuation of the price. Of course, you’re anxious.
The solution is not to become immune to anxiety. It’s to become the very value.
When you generate continuous value—through the content you produce, the code you write, the signals you offer—your stability does not depend on Bitcoin’s price. It depends on your generative capacity. And that, unlike the price, is under your control.
After all, whether you accept it or not, AI has already reshaped productivity, and Web3 has already reshaped economic relationships. Embracing change is not a choice. It’s the only rational move left.
