"He's a really good collab manager, makes amazing content too"
Fratello began his journey in Web3 back in late 2021. In the beginning, he was simply learning, exploring, connecting with people who shared the same curiosity and drive. He met many amazing individuals, people who he talked to for hours every day, who shared ideas, dreams, and ambitions with him. Back then, he truly believed some of them would stay by his side for life, that their bond would last even after they all made it big.
But time has a way of revealing truths.
Slowly, he started to notice the shift. Some people made a little money and disappeared without a word, no goodbye, no explanation, just silence. They moved on as if nothing had ever existed between them. That’s when he realized they may have walked the same path, but their goals were never the same.
Web3, he discovered, is full of people like that, selfish, greedy, and focused only on what benefits them. They smile in your face, act loyal, and pretend to be part of something bigger, but the moment they spot a better opportunity, they’re gone. For many, it isn’t about building together, it’s about winning alone.
It took him time to accept that reality. Real ones are rare in this space. But still, he never stopped. He kept building. He kept learning. And he held on to the hope that somewhere along the way, he’d meet the few who value loyalty more than profit.
His advice? Keep your soul intact. Don’t lose yourself chasing people or validation. Protect your energy. Focus on your path, stay real, and the right people will walk it with you.
