Dialogue with Mr. White from Twinkle: Create your own Web3 blockbuster universe.

Introduction: A Deep Dialogue on Web3 Short Dramas and the Crypto World Ecosystem

This live broadcast focuses on the upcoming Web3-themed short drama "The Black Amber of the Crypto Reef" and invites Patrick, the operations manager of Twinkle, one of the production parties, as well as Mr. Bai, an actor in the drama and a well-known KOL in the crypto world, to discuss the strategic thinking, industry observations, and personal experiences behind the creation of the short drama.

As the first short drama in the Web3 field centered around a suspenseful crime theme, "Dark Amber of the Crypto Reef" attempts to break down barrier layers through cinematic storytelling, conveying the complexity and charm of the crypto world to a broader audience. This article compiles in-depth responses from two guests on issues such as platform strategy, content creation, user needs, and industry trends, presenting readers with a feast of thoughts on the Web3 entertainment ecosystem.

Part One: Strategic Blueprint of the Twinkle Platform - From Short Dramas to Comprehensive Entertainment Ecosystem

1. The selection logic of the short drama track: the balance between entertainment and professionalism.

When the host asked Patrick why Twinkle chose short dramas as a starting point, he bluntly stated: "Short dramas are the blank spot in the current Web3 entertainment track." He mentioned that although exchanges and project parties have tried film and television content, most lack professionalism, with serious homogenization in themes such as rebirth and time travel, and rough production. Twinkle's goal is to create "delicate entertainment content" through a professional team (including directors, screenwriters, lighting, and styling), which not only meets the users' need for easily accessible happiness but also conveys the core values of Web3.

Patrick emphasized that the short drama is just the first step in Twinkle's layout, stating that "in the future, we will expand into variety shows, talk shows, long videos, and even online concerts." The platform plans to build a "comprehensive video ecosystem" covering multiple dimensions such as education, entertainment, and user creation. Regarding the planning of long videos, he stated: "Netflix's Web3 documentary is an important reference, but at this stage, we need to concentrate resources on polishing short dramas to ensure that each work is of high quality."

2. Core Functions and Cooperation Models: From Viewing Participation to Ecological Co-construction

Twinkle's current core features include short drama viewing, KOL voting, task sections, and event planning. Patrick revealed that in the future, they will introduce gameplay that allows users to "earn while having fun," such as integrating airdrops or NFT reward mechanisms. In addition, the platform plans to open up for cooperation, inviting project parties to integrate their brands into the short drama plots, "with real projects appearing in the drama, rather than simply replacing names." This Depth linkage can enhance project exposure and also increase user immersion.

Regarding the threshold for cooperation, Patrick said: "Whether it is a GameFi, NFT or DeFi project, as long as it fits the plot, you can submit a proposal through the official website or official Twitter. In particular, he mentioned that users should not only be audiences, but also participants, and "plans for offline meet-and-greets and guest performances are in the pipeline."

Part Two: Mr. Bai's Experiences in the Crypto World and His Participation in Short Plays

1. From Trader to Actor: Challenges and Gains of Cross-Industry Attempts

Mr. Bai plays a "technical trader" in the drama. He admits that the filming process was full of freshness: "The lines involve professional trading details, such as the frequency of keyboard tapping—traders in reality do not operate frequently, but the drama requires a dramatic representation." He jokingly said that although the role is a "bit part," the professionalism of the filming team impressed him, "Lighting equipment was brought in by the truckload."

When asked if he drew inspiration from his own experiences, Mr. Bai said: "The calmness and strategic nature of the traders in the drama indeed reflect real trading scenarios. But the ups and downs of the crypto world are far more exciting than the script—events like the 312 crash, institutional failures, and hacking incidents, these classic scenes are all worth adapting."

2. Dollar-Cost Averaging Strategy and Industry Observation: From Barbaric Growth to Compliance Transformation

As an "old leeks" who entered the crypto world in 2017, Mr. Bai shared his investment philosophy: "Dollar-cost averaging is the only strategy that allows me to profit in the long term." He publicly started dollar-cost averaging Bitcoin in 2021, and despite experiencing fluctuations from $37,000 to $15,000, he still insists on "heavy investment in faith, rather than gambler-style operations." Regarding the current market, he believes the bonus period is over, "the industry has entered a compliance stage, and opportunities are more concentrated in service-oriented tracks, such as RWA compliance, airdrop代操作, etc."

He sharply pointed out: "It is very difficult for newcomers entering the crypto world to get rich quickly now, but the increase in capital is driving the maturity of the ecosystem. If short dramas can lower the entry barrier for novices, they will become an important 'service-oriented product'."

Part Three: Audience Targeting and Content Innovation for Web3 Short Dramas

1. Audience Analysis: From hardcore players to newcomers in the crypto world.

Patrick believes that the core audience for Web3 short dramas is not only crypto world users, "even those who know nothing about Bitcoin can be attracted by the storyline." He mentioned that there are already some light educational content on overseas platforms, but due to policy restrictions, hardcore content dominates in the domestic market. Twinkle hopes to break the stereotype of "Web3 = speculation" through universal elements such as suspense and emotion.

Mr. Bai added, "Users in the crypto world have a natural resonance with content; as long as it involves elements like exchanges and K-lines, it will spread spontaneously. However, to break into other circles, it is necessary to address the cognitive barriers of beginners—such as how to download wallets and register for overseas IDs." He suggested that Twinkle launch a "zero-based teaching short drama" and incorporate real cases.

2. Content Direction: Adapted from Real Events and Biographies

Regarding future themes, both guests share the same opinion: there needs to be a balance between entertainment and authenticity. Patrick stated that Twinkle's first short drama "The Dark Amber of the Coin Sea" focuses on suspense and crime, and there are plans to include "biographies of crypto world big shots" in the future: "The stories of figures like Shen Yu and Wang Chun have yet to be explored; their experiences themselves have screenplay value."

Mr. Bai proposed to focus on "extreme market events": "retail investors who bought against the trend during the 312 crash, and the rights defenders after the exchange's explosion—these real stories resonate more." He opposed blindly pursuing the "feel-good drama" formula: "The aesthetic of crypto world users has upgraded, and rough narratives of getting rich no longer work."

Part Four: Industry Trends and Future Outlook

1. Opportunities and Challenges of Web3 Entertainment

Patrick pointed out that the core challenge of Web3 entertainment lies in "how to balance decentralization and content quality." He admitted, "User-generated content is ideal, but at this stage, we need to rely on professional teams to ensure quality." In addition, compliance risks remain a constraint, as "domestic platforms cannot promote directly and must distribute through official websites and overseas channels."

Mr. Bai analyzes from the user's perspective: "During market downturns, entertainment demand actually rises. Short dramas, live broadcasts, and community interactions will become important ways for users to spend their leisure time." He predicts that with the advancement of compliance, "new job forms such as remote work and on-chain employment will attract more talents from traditional industries to join."

2. Twinkle's ambition: to become the "Netflix + TikTok" of Web3

Patrick positioned Twinkle as a "comprehensive video platform in the Web3 domain," which includes quick entertainment content and is gradually developing in-depth documentaries. He revealed that the platform has collaborated with well-known directors, and future works will attempt a narrative technique of "combining virtual and real," such as embedding scenes of real project teams' smart contract interactions in the drama.

Conclusion: Can Entertaining Narratives Break the Dimensional Wall of Web3?

From hardcore crypto trading to film creation, Web3 is searching for a new language to break boundaries. "The Black Amber of the Dark Reef in the Coin Sea" is not only Twinkle's exploratory work but also an innovation of industry paradigms — it attempts to prove that entertaining content can serve as a bridge connecting the crypto world and the general public.

As Mr. Bai said: "The value of short dramas lies in service. They allow outsiders to see the diversity of Web3, and also help insiders find a sense of belonging." As technical narratives gradually give way to emotional resonance, Web3 may truly be able to move towards the next stop of "popularization."
