It's absolutely no secret that I'm a person that champions collaboration. I mean if you look at our server we have #the-cabal channel where projects can quickly share new updates with each other.
Instead of hearing ideas first, second, third or even fourth hand -- project owners can see it with their own eyes on our discord.
Collaboration helps everyone grow. Stronger together in my mind, with a little healthy competition of course. Some of us are in direct competition with each other, and that's fine. I see no harm in sharing the love if there is plenty to go around, and I think in this bull market there will be. It's going to be a good one, with Gensler out and a Pro crypto president in.
But that said that's why I think projects should take the time to link up with each other and share resources and information -- that way we become a healthier ecosystem.
We have done this since we started. At the beginning I was not fussy with whom I collaborated with, and that has since learned me a good lesson. I came to this ecosystem bright eyed and bushy tailed with high hopes that everyone was on the same path as me and had similar "go get 'em" values, but alas, that has taught me to be careful of who I network with in the futre.
It's not a bad thing, it's lucky I learned those lessons before we grew in any significance. Because if I had safeguarded all my crypto last time around I perhaps wouldn't have learned any of it. I learned the same lessons that Splinterlands did. Spent too much money in a time when you should have been saving it.
Anyway, that's a different topic.
We've always thrived through good healthy collaboration. Only last year Leo donated us 70,000 Leo to get shilling to our audience, and we did just that. AND we've been staking that Leo hard. So far we've staked nearly 1500 of those bad boys. That might come into fruition when they start partnering with Dash, that will be fun.

Now there's an interesting turn for the books.
And that's just the result of one of our collaborations, there's several more. Some that are public, like when we partnered @gifu with @splinterlands and some that are not public... just yet.
So if you're planning on starting up a project in the next month or two then I'd say get talking to people and get yourself out there. We thrive through sharing audiences with each other.
You should too -- even if you're an author. Get collabing!
Peace :)
