Crypto Stories: How Altcoin Daily built a platform for millions of crypto enthusiasts
In the latest Crypto Stories episode by Cointelegraph, Aaron and Austin Arnold share their journey of creating 'Altcoin Daily,' a crypto content platform that has amassed millions of subscribers across various platforms.
Earlier in life, Aaron spent his childhood dreaming of becoming a veterinarian, and then an actor, and then a filmmaker. Dreams of breaking into the filmmaking industry led the brothers to Los Angeles, where they struggled to get into entertainment.
While struggling, Aaron spent many sleepless nights contemplating purpose and how he could help make a difference in other people's lives. One day, while going to a comedy show, an Uber driver told Aaron how he went 3x on an altcoin called Filecoin. Inspired by his conversation with his Uber driver, Aaron decided to get into cryptocurrency trading.
An unassuming conversation with an Uber driver was about to change Aaron's life forever. This was the beginning of his journey toward learning more about the cryptocurrency industry. While learning about the industry, the brothers realized there was a demand for reliable information. A year after getting involved in the crypto space, Aaron finally decided to launch the Altcoin Daily channel and later invited his brother to get on board when he reached 1,000 subscribers on YouTube.
Since then, their platform has grown tremendously, expanding from YouTube to other platforms such as Twitter and Instagram, and attracting a community of loyal followers who trust their opinions and recommendations.
The Arnold brothers attributed the success of Altcoin Daily to an amazing work ethic instilled by their father who inspired them to show up and work every day. According to the brothers, consistency and value-added content have been the bedrock of their success, which has led them to win awards in categories such as “Influence of the Year” and “Best Crypto News channel.”
The Arnolds' journey is a testament to the power of consistency, dedication, and the willingness to learn and adapt.
For the brothers, what they're most proud of about their work is their ability to bring people together. Aaron shared: “It’s great to hear that cryptocurrency or our content can bring people together.”
