When cryptocurrency is the subject Twitter has proven to be the place to be. The mentors, the noobs as well as those out to shill their crypto project all converge on Twitter to consume and create crypto-related content.
Therefore it is safe to safe Twitter's role in crypto is impactful depending on how it is utilized for desired results.
Should Twitter cease to exist tomorrow, what are the impacts it will have on crypto projects? This was a question from a recent tweet as seen below worth looking into.
tbh an interesting question for any crypto project to ask itself is what would happen to it if Twitter went away tomorrow

Twitter to some is like what Hive is to me, should Hive cease to exist tomorrow, I can't imagine what life will be like for me. Hive has become home to me, a digital home where I have built global relationships over the years and a source of income that has been impacting lives positively.
And so is Twitter to some, life without Twitter is going to hit hard on those that rely on it.
Mentors utilize Twitter to market the services, Twitter is home to crypto noobs seeking how to get on board crypto and the consequence of that is either getting involved in the right project(s) or the ones that will leave them rekt in due time.
Shilling Of Crypto Projects
With crypto being the subject, Twitter is the place to shill crypto projects.
Most crypto projects are talked about on Twitter, Bitcoin, and Ethereum and the ones unheard of all have their place of shilling on Twitter.
Hive utilizes Twitter as well. There used to be a HiveChat which I participated in several times, I don't know if it is still a thing on Twitter but the idea is to give Hive exposure through Twitter.
And some of us share our posts on Twitter with the hope of exposing Hive to the masses out there.
Therefore crypto projects make use of Twitter to give their projects exposure in one way or the other.
Should Twitter Cease To Exist
Twitter houses crypto-related topics amongst others. And should it cease to exist it will have an impact on the crypto community to some extent, some projects that are heavily reliant on Twitter will suddenly have to seek other means of promoting their projects.
As for Hive, it will be business as usual, a unique aspect of Hive is that it is a social platform, home to not only crypto-related topics but any form of topic one wishes to talk about, Hive is a suitable host.
Hive's existence and growth to date have been organic without any marketing team behind it. It has relied on the community to share Hive with friends and family.
So without Twitter's existence, Hive will continue to thrive and grow. Some of us like myself are only on Twitter because we share our posts on Twitter, other than that, Twitter serves no purpose for some of us.
We owe it to ourselves to make Hive great
