and searching whether those posts/tweets have been posted on X in
the last 30 days 

and if so, list the stats of the top 10 posts in a table with the llink to the
posts

confirm once understood</code></code></pre><p>You can change the time period as per your need, but i&#8217;d prefer it to be 30 days</p><h1><strong>Step 2: Find bangers on Reddit</strong></h1><p>Now you need to find bangers on platforms like Reddit</p><blockquote><p><strong>Find bangers on Reddit (1) :</strong></p></blockquote><ul><li><p>Visit the subreddit you want to steal bangers from, like r/claudeai or r/vibecoding</p></li><li><p>Now sort by &#8220;Top&#8221; and &#8220;This Week&#8221;</p></li></ul><ul><li><p>Find the banger you&#8217;d like to steal</p></li><li><p>Copy the post caption and feed it to grok</p></li><li><p>If there aren&#8217;t any posts that match it, you can publish it immediately (and even if there are a few similar ones but none of them have blown up, you can still go ahead and post it)</p></li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Find bangers on reddit (2):</strong></p></blockquote><p>if you don&#8217;t know how to choose subreddits to find bangers from, you can still go to the front page and steal from there</p><ul><li><p>Go to <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/popular/top/">https://www.reddit.com/r/popular/top/</a></p></li><li><p>Sort by

So I&#8217;m pinning this expanded version with the full examples, the frameworks, and the behind the scenes strategy that I couldn&#8217;t fit into a single post.</p><div class="twitter-embed" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://x.com/leonabboud/status/2034246890754343240?s=20&quot;,&quot;full_text&quot;:&quot;The proven process getting all these product launches to go viral:\n\n#1 Start with &#8220;Introducing&#8221; (X loves what looks novel)\n\n#2 Lead with a big headline\n\n#3 Drop an offer too good to say no to (Free credits, limited time promo, early bird discount&#8230;)\n\n#4 Embed with view of founder&quot;,&quot;username&quot;:&quot;leonabboud&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Leon Abboud&quot;,&quot;profile_image_url&quot;:&quot;https://pbs.substack.com/profile_images/1984277015252389888/d1RYwTrM_normal.jpg&quot;,&quot;date&quot;:&quot;2026-03-18T12:33:47.000Z&quot;,&quot;photos&quot;:[{&quot;img_url&quot;:&quot;https://pbs.substack.com/media/HDsYwyiaMAAYC8U.jpg&quot;,&quot;link_url&quot;:&quot;https://t.co/9bS6VFF91N&quot;}],&quot;quoted_tweet&quot;:{&quot;full_text&quot;:&quot;Introducing Durable.\n\nThe first AI business builder that replaces your 9-5 income.\n\nRT + comment &#8220;Durable&#8221; and we'll build your business for FREE.&quot;,&quot;username&quot;:&quot;jamesclift&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;James Clift&quot;,&quot;profile_image_url&quot;:&quot;https://pbs.substack.com/profile_images/1504923381304463362/7rqB4Pe5_normal.jpg&quot;},&quot;reply_count&quot;:14,&quot;retweet_count&quot;:1,&quot;like_count&quot;:55,&quot;impression_count&quot;:5684,&quot;expanded_url&quot;:null,&quot;video_url&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false}" data-component-name="Twitter2ToDOM"></div><h2><strong>PILLAR 1: THE COPY</strong></h2><p>Every single one of these viral launch posts follows the same copy structure. And the reason why this consistently works is because of one simple phenomenon:</p><p><strong>People love novelty.</strong></p><p>When they see something novel, they stop, read, and engagement.</p><p>The algo sees this as positive signal, and decides to push the post.</p><p>That&#8217;s why every single one of these launches tend to start with &#8220;Introducing&#8221;.</p><p>Next, step in the copy is in making a grand statement that&#8217;ll keep people hooked.</p><p>Every single one of these launches leads with a superlative claim.</p><ul><li><p>&#8220;The world&#8217;s first AI CMO.&#8221;</p></li><li><p>&#8220;The first AI business builder.&#8221;</p></li><li><p>&#8220;The world&#8217;s first SMS/Voice executive AI assistant.&#8221;</p></li></ul><p>Notice the pattern. These brands aren&#8217;t leading with &#8220;a better&#8221; or &#8220;an improved&#8221; of something.</p><p><strong>The word is FIRST.</strong></p><p>The next element is the CTA.</p><p>Every one of these posts ends with an offer too good to say no to.</p><p>&#8220;Try it now&#8221;</p><p>&#8220;RT + comment &#8216;Durable&#8217; and we&#8217;ll build your business for FREE.&#8221;</p><p>&#8220;RT + comment &#8216;NOAH&#8217; and I&#8217;ll send you the VIP.&#8221;</p><p>The call to action leads to a specific action with a specific reward.</p><p>Free access. Free credits. VIP treatment. Early bird. The CTA is structured as an exchange, not a request.</p><p>Added bonus if you can create an engagement mechanic: RT + comment to unlock. This is a viral loop baked directly into the post itself.</p><p>I ran this exact playbook for our own launch event at Unfungible. We had over 300 people quote retweeting organically because we built the viral loop into the registration flow.</p><div class="twitter-embed" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://x.com/leonabboud/status/1977737441311178777?s=20&quot;,&quot;full_text&quot;:&quot;On Wednesday, Oct 22 I&#8217;m revealing every secret I know about crypto marketing, for free.\n\nAnd I&#8217;m giving away $10,000 in bonuses to every person who joins live.\n\nRegister now by following the link in my bio.\n\nRemember, the only thing they can&#8217;t liquidate is your knowledge. &quot;,&quot;username&quot;:&quot;leonabboud&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Leon Abboud&quot;,&quot;profile_image_url&quot;:&quot;https://pbs.substack.com/profile_images/1984277015252389888/d1RYwTrM_normal.jpg&quot;,&quot;date&quot;:&quot;2025-10-13T14:05:25.000Z&quot;,&quot;photos&quot;:[{&quot;img_url&quot;:&quot;https://substackcdn.com/image/upload/w_1028,c_limit,q_auto:best/l_twitter_play_button_rvaygk,w_88/g66atlgzdkwi4znsexme&quot;,&quot;link_url&quot;:&quot;https://t.co/5hiRc71NbX&quot;}],&quot;quoted_tweet&quot;:{},&quot;reply_count&quot;:279,&quot;retweet_count&quot;:56,&quot;like_count&quot;:886,&quot;impression_count&quot;:115970,&quot;expanded_url&quot;:null,&quot;video_url&quot;:&quot;https://video.twimg.com/amplify_video/1977736149968801792/vid/avc1/1280x720/-KIpqqPrzMJ44i9r.mp4&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true}" data-component-name="Twitter2ToDOM"></div><p>People went to the landing page, registered, and were then offered a bonus (access to a private training) if they quote retweeted the announcement.</p><p><strong>The result was over 500,000+ cumulative impressions and 2,000+ signups with $0 in ad spend.</strong></p><p>One thing I learned the hard way: we originally asked people to screenshot and post. But that didn&#8217;t feed the original post to boost it.</p><p>The moment we switched the CTA to &#8220;quote retweet the announcement post,&#8221; the post gained insane momentum.</p><p><strong>So the copy formula is:</strong></p><ol><li><p>Lead with novelty. Position as first, only, or best.</p></li><li><p>Make a claim that feels impossible to ignore.</p></li><li><p>End with a CTA that offers something genuinely valuable for free.</p></li><li><p>Optional: build a viral loop into the engagement mechanic (RT + comment to unlock a benefit delivered via DM).</p></li></ol><h2><strong>PILLAR 2: THE VIDEO</strong></h2><p>Every single one of these launches has a video attached.</p><p>The ideal length across all these viral launches sits between 60 and 120 seconds, which is short enough that people don&#8217;t scroll past. Long enough to tell a complete story.</p><p>Every video starts the same way: a face, shot in high definition, looking directly into the camera.</p><p>Across every experiment on what gets the highest scroll stopper, a face has always outcompeted everything else.</p><p>The video typically starts with a bold hook, often repeating the statement made in the caption. </p><p>And then there&#8217;s the pacing. The best performing launch videos have a visual change every three seconds. A cut. A screen transition. A new angle. A product demo.</p><p>Every visual change resets the viewer&#8217;s attention clock. Their brain treats it as new information and re-engages. Three seconds of the same frame and the thumb starts moving toward that scroll.</p><p>When it comes to narrative structure, each video seems to be following their own narrative.</p><p>One simple structure I default to in my content is that of the StoryBrand.</p><p><strong>Here&#8217;s what the Storybrand Framework looks like:</strong></p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

can&#8217;t keep up.&#8221; &#8220;You&#8217;re spending 80% of your time on tasks that don&#8217;t move the needle.&#8221;</p><p><strong>Frustration.</strong> Twist the knife. Show that the current solutions aren&#8217;t working. Existing tools are slow. Agencies are expensive. Doing it yourself is burning you out.</p><p><strong>Solution introduction.</strong> This is where the product enters as a relief. &#8220;That&#8217;s why we built X.&#8221; The product is positioned as the guide, not the hero. The viewer is the hero. The product is what helps them win.</p><p><strong>Show how easy it is.</strong> Here you have to show the product working. A screen recording of someone entering their website and watching the AI deploy. A demo of the agent completing a task in real time. The viewer needs to see themselves using it. If they can picture it, they can buy it.</p><p><strong>How to take action.</strong> End with the simplest possible next step and a singular call to action.</p><p>This is the framework. Problem, frustration, solution, ease, action. 60 to 120 seconds. Face on camera. Visual change every three seconds. If you nail this structure, your video becomes the vehicle that carries the copy into virality.</p><h2><strong>PILLAR 3: THE AMPLIFICATION</strong></h2><p>Every mega viral launch you see on X has an influencer amplification layer running underneath it. And the ones that do it well make it look completely organic.</p><p>The #1 rule of marketing is that what looks like a paid promotion performs like a paid promotion, and looks like an organic content piece, performs like an organic content piece.</p><p>Once the main launch post goes live with the copy and video, a coordinated group of influencers amplifies it using quote retweets. .</p><p>The captions these influencers use follow a very specific formula. They&#8217;re designed to trigger controversy and get people commenting and reacting.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!x2R-!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd113e66a-c317-435f-9af5-5458fb0fb830_680x670.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!x2R-!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd113e66a-c317-435f-9af5-5458fb0fb830_680x670.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!x2R-!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd113e66a-c317-435f-9af5-5458fb0fb830_680x670.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!x2R-!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd113e66a-c317-435f-9af5-5458fb0fb830_680x670.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!x2R-!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd113e66a-c317-435f-9af5-5458fb0fb830_680x670.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!x2R-!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd113e66a-c317-435f-9af5-5458fb0fb830_680x670.jpeg" width="680" height="670" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/d113e66a-c317-435f-9af5-5458fb0fb830_680x670.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:670,&quot;width&quot;:680,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Image&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Image" title="Image" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!x2R-!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd113e66a-c317-435f-9af5-5458fb0fb830_680x670.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!x2R-!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd113e66a-c317-435f-9af5-5458fb0fb830_680x670.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!x2R-!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd113e66a-c317-435f-9af5-5458fb0fb830_680x670.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!x2R-!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd113e66a-c317-435f-9af5-5458fb0fb830_680x670.jpeg 1456w" sizes="100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>&#8220;Copywriters are cooked.&#8221;</p><p>&#8220;Marketing agencies in disbelief.&#8221;</p><p>&#8220;CMOs watching this like &#128064;&#8221;</p><p><em>PS: If you&#8217;re planning on using paid promos, make sure you get your influencers to disclose.</em></p><p>One more thing on amplification.

The founders who are winning right now aren&#8217;t just building better products.

else, confirm the exchange supports your country/region and your situation (KYC, age requirements, supported fiat rails).</p><p>Don&#8217;t rely on social media, use the exchange&#8217;s official availability + legal pages.</p><h3>2) Fees: maker/taker, spreads, and &#8220;instant buy&#8221; markups</h3><p>Fees aren&#8217;t just the headline maker/taker rate. Watch for:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Trading fees:</strong> maker vs taker (order book)</p></li><li><p><strong>Spreads:</strong> the hidden cost in the price you get</p></li><li><p><strong>Convenience fees:</strong> &#8220;instant buy/sell&#8221; can be priced differently than &#8220;pro/advanced trade&#8221;</p></li><li><p><strong>Withdrawal fees:</strong> vary by asset and network</p></li></ul><p>Example: Binance publicly lists a standard spot rate for regular users (often shown as 0.10% / 0.10% maker/taker) with potential discounts depending on conditions.</p><h3><strong>3) Security and transparency</strong></h3><p>Look for basics like <strong>2FA</strong>, withdrawal address allowlists, and a strong operational track record.</p><p>If transparency matters, Proof of Reserves can be a meaningful plus (though it is <em>not</em> the same as a full financial audit). Kraken explains how clients can verify in-scope balances using its Proof of Reserves process.</p><h3><strong>4) Liquidity and execution quality</strong></h3><p>Higher liquidity usually means tighter spreads and less slippage.</p><p>Large venues often rank high by volume/trust-score trackers (for example, CoinGecko&#8217;s exchange rankings and market share research).</p><h3><strong>5) Product fit</strong></h3><p><strong>If you&#8217;re buying &amp; holding: </strong>prioritize simple UX, reliable deposits/withdrawals, security defaults</p><p><strong>If you&#8217;re advanced: </strong>prioritize order types, APIs, fee tiers, market depth</p><p>Also remember: derivatives carry higher risk than spot.</p><h2><strong>Best Crypto Exchanges</strong></h2><h3><strong><a href="https://accounts.binance.com/register?ref=290388724">Binance</a>: Best overall</strong></h3><p>Binance is often chosen for its deep liquidity, huge asset selection, and a wide product suite (spot, earn, etc.).</p><p>It&#8217;s also typically competitive on spot fees: Binance&#8217;s fee schedule lists a standard spot rate for regular users (commonly shown as 0.10% / 0.10% maker/taker) with discounts for certain conditions.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Proof of Reserves can improve transparency (example: Kraken).</p><h3><strong>Which exchange has the lowest fees?</strong></h3><p>It depends on your volume, order type (maker vs taker), and whether you&#8217;re using &#8220;instant buy&#8221; vs pro order-book trading. Always verify the exchange&#8217;s current fee schedule (examples: Binance, Bybit, Bitstamp, Coinbase help pages)</p><h3><strong>Should I leave crypto on an exchange?</strong></h3><p>Many people keep only what they need for near-term trading on an exchange and move long-term holdings to self-custody. But self-custody has its own risks (seed phrase loss, phishing). The reason this question matters is real: major failures like <strong>FTX&#8217;s 2022 collapse</strong> showed that exchange risk can be catastrophic.</p><h2><strong>Bottom line: the best exchange for crypto is the one that fits your use case</strong></h2><p>If you want a fast shortcut list of <strong>recommended crypto exchanges</strong>:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Global all-rounder (where available):</strong> Binance</p></li><li><p><strong>Beginner-friendly on-ramp (U.S.-leaning):</strong> Coinbase</p></li><li><p><strong>Transparency tools:</strong> Kraken</p></li><li><p><strong>Advanced trading-first platforms:</strong> Bybit / OKX (after confirming legal access + your own risk comfort)</p></li><li><p><strong>Straightforward fee pages + long-running brands:</strong> Bitstamp / Gemini</p></li></ul><p>No matter what you pick: avoid keeping more on an exchange than you can afford to lose, use strong security (2FA + withdrawal allowlists), and learn wallet safety before you scale up.</p><blockquote><p>Not your keys = not your coins</p></blockquote><p>Learn more about how to protect your assets in this crypto wallet article

That&#8217;s basically why I use Nansen.</p><div><hr></div><p><strong>10% OFF CODE: KAITO</strong></p><p>Official partner promo code &#8220;<strong>kaito</strong>&#8221; or simply click the button below to get the deal</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;http://nsn.ai/kaito&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;GET CODE&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="http://nsn.ai/kaito"><span>GET CODE</span></a></p><div><hr></div><h2>What nansen.ai is</h2><p>Nansen is an onchain analytics platform that takes raw blockchain data and turns it into something you can actually act on.</p><p>The core idea is simple: label wallets at scale, track what those wallets do across many chains, and surface the patterns in dashboards, alerts, and search.</p><p>Nansen has millions of labeled addresses and supports a wide multichain view, so you can see not just &#8220;what happened,&#8221; but <em>who</em> is moving and <em>where</em> they&#8217;re moving to.</p><p>Think of it as the bridge between block explorers and real market insight. Instead of staring at endless tx hashes, you get context like &#8220;this wallet belongs to a top fund,&#8221; &#8220;these are smart money net inflows,&#8221; or &#8220;this token is getting accumulated by high performing traders.&#8221;</p><h2>How it helps</h2><p>I use Nansen for three main jobs:</p><ol><li><p><strong>Discovery</strong><br>I want to know where attention and capital are going before it becomes a headline. Smart Money dashboards and live DEX tracking let me see what consistently profitable wallets are buying in real time, across chains.</p></li><li><p><strong>Due diligence</strong><br>When a token starts trending, the first thing I check is holder quality and flow direction. Are good wallets accumulating or are insiders distributing? Nansen&#8217;s labeling and wallet profiler makes that fast.</p></li><li><p><strong>Defense</strong><br>The market moves brutally fast. Alerts on key wallets, tokens, or protocols help me catch early signs of risk or rotation. That&#8217;s been a legit edge in volatile weeks.</p></li></ol><p>In short, Nansen helps me trade with <em>evidence</em> instead of vibes. Not because it predicts the future, but because it shows the present clearly.</p><h2>What&#8217;s unique about Nansen</h2><p>A bunch of tools show charts. Fewer show flows. Nansen&#8217;s edge is turning flows into <em>identity and intent</em>.</p><ul><li><p><strong>Wallet labels at scale</strong>: Nansen is famous for labeling hundreds of millions of addresses and tagging &#8220;smart money&#8221; cohorts so you can follow the most informed actors, not just price candles.</p></li><li><p><strong>Smart money methodology + pnl focus</strong>: the Smart Money dashboard doesn&#8217;t just list whales, it highlights wallets with proven performance and shows what they&#8217;re doing now.</p></li><li><p><strong>Multichain, one interface</strong>: I don&#8217;t want to hop between explorers for every ecosystem. Nansen pulls activity from many major chains into one place.</p></li><li><p><strong>AI-assisted search and signals</strong>: built-in AI search and market signals help reduce the &#8220;needle in a haystack&#8221; problem when scanning new trends.</p></li></ul><p>That combination makes it feel less like a data terminal and more like a real-time market map.</p><h2>Nansen Points (NXP)</h2><p>Holding nansen points will grant you a membership tier within the nansen ecosystem.
