Daniel & Manu met on BitClout. They immediately hit it off - both had similar interests, were founders of businesses in the creative industry & shared the belief that BitClout was going to be game-changing. They wanted to build something together & decided on a newsletter. In 5 minutes, they decided on a name, made the coin handle & got going.
CloutDigest - The idea is simple; feature top happenings on BitClout & curate them. Build a community around readers and supporters.
#1 First woman to hit 10K?
@Trademeproject has been phenomenal. Everyone looks up to her for her fast trades and calls. But in the last couple of days, she has also risen on BitClout as a Creator. People are betting on her to be the first female creator to hit 10K. Will she make it?
#2 Positive vibes all over
BitClout has become a place for positivity and support. A community of like-minded people who believe they are part of a movement that will change the world! A lot of posts on BitClout are a reflection of this very sentiment.

#3 The best articles on BitClout
While most of the media has called BitClout a scam or a Ponzi scheme, here are some articles with more unbiased views.
The first one that really travelled was from @jakeudell Read it hereExcerpt from the article below.
It’s very early days for BitClout… Like when Uber was just black cars in San Francisco or Facebook was only available at specific colleges.
Is BitClout the “Napster” or “Spotify” of decentralized social media?
I’m not sure, but it’s definitely worth the experiment, especially with world class venture funds like Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, and Social Capital behind it.
Another one we liked was from Omar Ismail. Read it here. Aptly titled “Is BitClout the future of social media?” Excerpt below
BitClout is not the first crypto social network. However, in my view, it has the potential to be the first majorly successful one. Relative to other crypto networks, BitClout has better economic incentives and has leveraged growth hacking techniques more successfully. It also benefits from a more well-timed go-to-market and deeper pockets in the form of major VC backing.
#4 Giftclout support and support from other community members
When we joined BitClout, we weren’t sure of how to get started & boom came help from @GiftClout. GiftClout has been giving every new user $11.11 of BitClout to start their journeys.
With @Merlin sometimes down, many others pitched in to help out. You could send emails to some key influencers and they would send you some coin to get started.
@Ekimkaya has been investing $10 into every coin. And there are many others who are helping out.
If you are reading this and are wondering how to get started, do check them out for some coins!
@renatavc is also doing a playbook that should be available soon.
#5 How to drive engagement on BitClout?
Every time this question comes up, a post by @Artz comes to our mind. BitClout is different - it’s not Twitter or Instagram. You have to be original and think about how the power of the product can be used to drive engagement. Recycling your work from other social properties will not cut it.
#6 Memes on BitClout
This digest will not be complete without sharing some of the funniest memes on Cloutosphere. Most were around getting “rugged” or the BitClout website not responding and there were many around BitClout versus Twitter.

#7 Will Elon Musk join?
This is the most important thing going around. Elon Musk’s Twitter would have received this from so many people. When he tweeted the below, folks also speculated he might be joining soon.
But, creators who are driving a lot of engagement have also been dropping the @elonmusk coin for others. This post from @craig went viral
#8 Investment for reclouts?
BitClout launched ‘reclouts’ and suddenly everyone sees this as an opportunity to grow their following.
This was the message
Reclout a post and your coin will be bought
Reclout a post and stand a chance to win BitClouts
Reclout a post to participate in a raffle
And it’s endless, the type of messages that are appearing on every feed. Suddenly there is a lot of spam.
The last person to reclout the post will win BitClouts (the smartest move)
Will this ever happen, @BitCloutResource?
#9 BitClout going global?
@EvanLuthra welcomed @msurvashirautela on BitClout. Is this the start of seeing huge influencers outside the US starting to join? For the uninitiated Urvashi has 35M followers on Instagram
#10 About Us and CloutDigest

Tag @CloutDigest or DM if you want to share something with us. We will try to add them to the newsletter.
Our “Founder Reward” is set at 20% - a decent incentive will help us do a fantastic job here.
We are early adopters of BitClout outside the US - We also have a ringside view of the growth of BitClout in Europe and Asia.
We will write on Substack till the time Subclout goes live - we believe both are going to be similar products and it should be easy migration in the near future. We are in touch with the team at Subclout.
The intention is to have fun and get our creative juices flowing. There is so much thrill in starting something together with like-minded people. We are thankful we have the opportunity.
That’s it from us for now. Will be interesting and exciting to see how this grows!
BitClout to the moon!
