Prominent esports influencers earning passive income on Friend.tech
Prominent esports influencers Ricky “FaZe Banks” Bengston, Nordan “FaZe Rain” Shat, and 100 Thieves CEO Matthew “Nadeshot” Haag are among the top earners on new crypto platform Friend.tech. They have gained significant passive income since registering for its closed beta.
Key points:
- Friend.tech is a “social finance” application on the Base network, allowing users to trade “keys” of various individuals.
- Buying a key grants access to a dedicated group chat and the individual earns a small fee from the sale in Ethereum.
- FaZe Banks has earned approximately $72,000 in less than one day, with nearly 872 ETH in total volume traded of his keys.
- FaZe Rain has earned about $19,000 in less than 24 hours, with over 226 ETH in volume.
- Nadeshot has earned roughly $27,000, with over 322 ETH in total key volume traded.
Nadeshot’s involvement in crypto
Nadeshot has previously engaged with crypto, having given out Polygon NFTs and used a CryptoPunks NFT as his Twitter profile picture. FaZe Banks is also known as a trader of valuable NFTs, including CryptoPunks.
Friend.tech’s closed beta and future
The closed beta of Friend.tech launched on August 10 and has already seen significant activity, with over 1.1 million keys traded in over 935,000 transactions. The platform remains invite-only, and it is uncertain when it will be opened up to a wider audience.
Hot Take
Friend.tech’s social finance concept offers an exciting opportunity for crypto enthusiasts and influencers to earn passive income. However, the involvement of individuals known for trading NFTs and potential past involvement in pump-and-dump schemes raises questions about the platform’s credibility and long-term sustainability.
