I usually spend my mornings on X spaces with web 3 shows. I can connect with at least 1000-5000 potential Web3 people that speak my language.
I know if I send them some crypto they will gladly take it and spend time with me if I need some consulting, or maybe just hang out.
It's all about surrounding yourself with the people you want to become.
It's not super up to date but you can tune in to any of these shows on X and follow as many people as you need.
