There is a general consensus within the digital community that early adoption often yields the biggest rewards. In the context of Meta’s new Twitter rival, Threads, creators have a unique opportunity to establish their presence and grow their influence.
Threads are currently less saturated than platforms like Twitter, so some Web3 users find it a more focused environment. Less noise doesn’t mean a smaller audience, it means a greater chance of being seen and engaged.
Whether you’re an artist or a brand navigating the Web3 space, here’s how you can best leverage the capabilities of the new Threads app to grow your presence and influence.
Exclusive drops
Conducting an exclusive launch to reward your early supporters has several benefits. Besides showing your appreciation, it can create buzz due to the limited availability of the drop. For example, in honor of the platform’s launch, Empress Trash announced free minting to her followers exclusively on Threads.
Share NFT art
While Twitter is known for promoting longer analytical discussions and debates, Threads is currently relatively simpler and focused on stream of consciousness rather than news. Artists like ThankYouX and Vinnie Hager have used Threads to freely share their thoughts and art.
Digital and pop culture artist Bryan Brinkman, who is on both Twitter and Threads, has observed a significant contrast in user cultures between the two platforms. Additionally, he stressed that Threads’ structural design offers significant benefits to artists.
“Threads have the potential to put Web3 people into the Instagram/Meta ecosystem that has historically been hostile to NFTs,” Brinkman now told nft. “From an artist’s perspective, I see immediate benefits with viewing images horizontally, and unlike Bluesky, videos and gifs are allowed.”
Many users recently posted that their threads were removed due to “violation of community guidelines”. While the creators of these posts claim that their content was it just sharing news, memes, or jokes, it seems the Thread moderation team has a different interpretation of that adhering to their guidelines.
“My hope is that artists use this new platform to share the good of the Web3 ecosystem instead of the cynical hot shots we often see on Twitter,” Brinkman added. “This is an opportunity to educate and engage new artists and collectors.”
Threads has a unique advantage over starting over on other platforms. It allows users to transfer their existing community from Instagram directly to Threads. This feature negates the need to build a following from scratch. Users can enjoy a large audience base right from the start, instantly amplifying their reach and engagement.
The future of threads
It’s still too early to declare Threads as the ultimate Twitter killer. The longevity of the current hype surrounding the platform and its potential to eclipse Twitter, in the long run, remains a subject of speculation, especially with a potential process in the mix. Social media platforms evolve and audience tastes change in unpredictable ways, making it difficult to predict the end result.
However, being prepared for every possible outcome is a smart move. If Threads rises to Twitter-level prominence, having an established presence, understanding the dynamics of the platform, and knowing how to leverage its features to your advantage will take you several steps forward. So whether you’re a Web3 creator, project founder or digital artist, this platform could be your next big opportunity to shine.
Regardless of the future, the rise of Thread underscores a shift in digital conversations where adjusting and directing communication skills are key to thriving.
