Referral commissions are based on trading volume; a $1,000 capital with 10x leverage and 5 trades/day creates $100,000 daily volume.

19:12[00:01] that absolutely all crypto influencers are keeping quiet about, but this is exactly how they make money. Today I'll tell you exactly how influencers working in this
[00:14] can create your own cryptocurrency Telegram channel without much investment, attract just 400-500 people to your audience, and start earning $5,000 a month with just a referral. My name is Mikhail. I've
[00:29] internet marketing, affiliate marketing, and traffic management in general for over 3 years. Actually, let me tell you about the cryptocurrency niche. Let's immediately go over the most popular ways that they teach us to make money here. This is
[00:43] probably the most widespread P2P arbitration today. I think those who are already in this niche understand that it no longer works. A lot of guys who used to do PTB arbitration have approached me, but now the
[00:55] cards there are just dying. Now, well, there are no spreads and there is no point in some kind of part-time job, rather than some kind of stable, adequate business. The next thing we hear quite often is the trading niche. If
[01:09] we look at it objectively, or rather, not objectively, but rather hyper-positively and optimistically, we have a 50/50 chance against the exchange, or, more precisely, against other traders. But if you watch this video to the end, you will understand
[01:22] that trading cannot be profitable if you do not have some insider knowledge, if you do not have some in-depth analytics that will compare with the top market players. So, as a beginner, obviously,
[01:35] trading is also a terrible direction. I 'm staking, right? That is, if we are simply accumulating some assets, in principle, it is a good strategy, but here we principle, it is a good strategy, but here we
[01:49] capital, this path is also not suitable for you. Airdrops, distribution of all sorts of cryptocurrency coins, and what I did in 22-23. At that time, it was a working niche. Now I don’t even know,
[02:01] as far as I know, there are just some penny projects there that earning some large capital is a bit of a hassle. Moreover, you can’t build any stable business from this. And, actually,
[02:14] what I want to tell you about today is the referral sphere, yes, that is, about referral marketing, affiliate marketing. This is what our market leaders are doing, like Ruslan Khairulin with his investment zone, and FCON FIN, yes, with
[02:29] Alexander, oh, I forgot his name, Sokolovsky, yes, and just hundreds of we constantly release some kind of signals, some kind of analysis, some kind of deals, and, in fact, how they all
[02:43] this channel, for example, makes money on some pump and dumps, on some scam, in simple terms. Here someone will say that some courses, training, and something else like that are sold here . But if we delve deeper, we will not
[02:56] find anything similar on this channel or on that channel. Here, many of us will say that the only way to earn money is from private channels. We can ask the price there, and they will tell us that the channels cost $200-300 per month
[03:09] all these Telegram channels, yes, I mean these ones, they earn money exclusively from some kind of sales of services or from some kind of deception. But in reality, they all earn money exclusively from
[03:23] how referral systems work on exchanges, and what they are. Well, let's start with the fact that we have a bunch of different exchanges, starting from Binance, ending with, I don't know, some other exchanges, on which almost no one
[03:37] exchanges, on which almost no one trades. But what is the peculiarity? The fact is that all of these exchanges, yes, have their own trading commission. That is, this is what they essentially make money on. What is this commission? How is it, well, how much does the exchange earn from it in general?
[03:49] I found this interesting post: "Oh, and Binance earns us a little over 3.5 million daily, including commissions, right?" That is, some other exchanges, there are 3.5 million, 3 million, but in fact these are even very
[04:03] understated figures. But how do all these commissions actually work? It's actually as simple as it gets, right? So , firstly, we have different statuses on the exchanges, right? That is, if we trade a lot , these commissions can be
[04:15] lowered for us. But basically it works like this: on the spot, yes, that is, on the regular, uh, cryptocurrency market, yes, where we simply buy some bitcoins or something else as an investment, we have a commission of 0.1%. If
[04:29] we trade on futures markets, yes, on derivatives trading, I'll explain more about that a little later, then our commission is usually 0.05%, 0.5%, if a person opens a deal at the market, yes, that is, they place not a
[04:43] limit order, which very few people ever do, but rather opens as takers, yes, that is, as the recipient of a simple limit order at, or more precisely, a market order at some price that is currently
[05:00] our commission is 0.05% of this transaction. That is, let's count, well, let's see how it all works. a person, a, invests, or rather, a person enters into a transaction for 1,000 dollars, for example, 50 cents are withdrawn from this 1,000
[05:13] dollars, right? That is, from 1,000 he has 999 50 cents left; the commission fee came from the exchange itself. And many will think that this is just pennies. That is, a person
[05:27] must enter into a transaction for as much as 1,000 dollars and only this small amount will be written off from him . But here we see the full beauty of deleveraging trading, futures markets and this capital multiplier of ours
[05:41] , so to speak. And if you're already into crypto, most of you know how futures markets work. In very simple terms, Bersha gives our client, our user, some kind of average,
[05:56] in fact, a person can trade, right? That is, let's say, if he takes the tenth leverage, then when entering into a deal for 1,000 dollars, this deal is multiplied by 10 times. That is, he essentially enters with $1,000 of his own and $9,000 as if
[06:11] borrowed from the exchange. But it is clear that the exchange does not simply lend out such huge sums . All this is done against the security of the principal amount. And if a person simply went into his own finances, then it does n’t matter at all how the
[06:24] market behaves there. Until Bitcoin reaches zero, a person will still have some balance. But if a person enters with tenth leverage, then if the market moves by just 10%, his entire amount, which he essentially
[06:39] left as collateral, is completely liquidated. We also have some hundredth shoulders on some exchanges at Son, yes, there are even five hundredths. Ah, but the essence is the same, yes, if by the hundredth shoulder, then the movement is 1%. If we have a twenty-
[06:52] fifth shoulder there, then the movement is 4%. I think, in principle, the logic here is clear. And, actually, what about the referral, how does it work for us? In our case, this amount it work for us? In our case, this amount of 10,000 is also multiplied by 10 times. That
[07:05] is, a person pays a commission 10 times higher and his trading volume is not $1,000, but $10,000. That is, we are no longer earning 50 cents from such a person, or rather, not we, but the exchange. So far it's just an exchange.
[07:19] She's not earning 50 cents, she's earning $5, right? That is, it’s already more interesting. What's our next point? The thing is, the average trader, well, if you've you've clicked through to this video, you're probably familiar with the industry, the average trader
[07:34] makes somewhere between five and 10 trades a day. Let's take five transactions. That is, a person entered there, and, up somewhere, yes, that is, Bitcoin will go up, Ethereum will go down, there are already two transactions, there are still some, I don’t
[07:47] know, he opened something, then closed the transaction, re-entered from a different entry point. And, in fact, we conduct on average five such transactions per day. This already gives us 100,000 turnover, yes, that is, 100,000, a, trading volume.
[08:02] Many people ask questions like, how is it 10,000 snakes, it will not be 100,000, but 50,000. But what we have here is that when a person enters into a transaction, a commission is debited from him, in fact, from his trading volume. But the commission is
[08:16] also debited when he exits the transaction, because this is also, well, opening a transaction, only the opposite, not for the purchase, but for the sale of an asset. Or, on the contrary, not for sale, yes, that is, not for short, but for long. And any transaction we have is
[08:29] counted as this, actually, transaction. And for us, this sum of transactions is multiplied by two. Thus, we have 10 different openings and closings, so to speak, of some positions.
[08:42] And the total turnover is 100,000, right? That is, it seems like a person with only $1,000 in capital came in, but he already has $100,000 in savings, and it doesn’t matter to us at all whether he won or lost, whether he earned
[08:57] something or lost everything. On the contrary, it’s actually better for us that he loses absolutely nothing when a person earns, because again, this is, in essence, trading against other people. But the person remains
[09:10] to trade, and the exchange continues to earn these commissions, right? That is, conditionally, we are already recalculating about 000. We get 50 dollars. OK. . Now let's figure out where our
[09:25] income will come from here, and what it's all based on. But here, in fact, everything is super simple. We attract a referral like this, who, ah, makes at least this much turnover. And the exchange will pay us a percentage of this turnover
[09:38] . Each exchange has its own, starting somewhere from 10% and ending up to 80%, yes, if you take some of the market tops like Arulin and Ruslan. But
[09:50] if you work with the Binngix exchange through me, then from exchange through me, then from the start you will already have 45-50% plus or minus. Further on, this percentage will grow along with your beard. But
[10:02] why do we choose the BHX exchange and not any other? Because our conditions don't end there. And besides the high percentage, we also receive a fixed salary of $50 for every million in turnover, right?
[10:15] That is, if we attracted 10 such referrals or simply waited 10 days, and by then our referral has already made, in fact, a million in turnover, yes, then for each million we will still get 50 dollars at the beginning and
[10:29] a little later we will be paid 100 dollars, right? That is, we simply brought in a referral and received, well, $250 from him in 10 days. Here. Well, if that's how he trades, right? That is, we divide 50 by 2, because 50% is 250. We also get an
[10:44] because 50% is 250. We also get an extra 50 dollars. And so, in 10 days, one referral already brings us 500, oh, not 500, but 300 dollars. And if we take into account that exactly every day, yes, somewhere he will miss, somewhere he will make
[10:58] fewer trades, then we can say that on average we will receive about 500 dollars from such a referral, yes, if he comes there once every 3 days and trades. If we bring in 10 of these, yes, 10
[11:11] referrals, then we will have $5,000. Let's now figure out where to find these referrals and how to bring in 10 people to reach an bring in 10 people to reach an income of $5,000. Ah, well, here,
[11:24] actually, everything is super simple. We use sources of conditionally free traffic, or we purchase traffic if we have the budget for it. The best sources for this direction are, obviously, YouTube, which for us is Instagram.
[11:37] We also have Telegram channels where we can purchase advertising. We also have another type of conditionally free traffic on Telegram, which I've mention it. These are mailings in
[11:49] comments and spam like this. It's clear that we'll get much more results and a more solvent audience if we build up our YouTube channel and our Instagram channel, and these will be more
[12:02] stable sources. And, actually, let's go over them, what kind of content should we generally upload to these platforms. Well, first of all, it’s some kind of news, because everything related to news directly affects the
[12:15] crypto market, cryptocurrency. All of Trump's statements, everything there, I don't know, military situations in the world, there's the Strait of Armuz and all that stuff. Next comes some analysis, chart analysis, right? That is, if you already have
[12:28] some experience in cryptocurrency, have some analytical thinking, you know something about technical analysis, and, I do n’t know, about volumes, or something else, then talk about it, write about it, make posts on Telegram on this topic and,
[12:42] in fact, thanks to this, attract an audience. We also have motivational content, it will work in its own way. Here we can have a very large children's audience, which we absolutely do not need for this topic.
[12:56] And also, although in fact, even I remember myself, at 15-16 years old I already had some 500,000 dollars for trading, I always had it. Therefore, this is also a , unfortunately, a generation is growing up that does not even have such savings.
[13:12] Therefore, yes, it is better to work more carefully with motivation, yes, what we have, so that it is not our targeted traffic. And also everything related to economics. Again, this is news, economics, politics, maybe somewhere in part. All of this attracts a
[13:25] who are interested in alternative finance in the form of cryptocurrency and the general field of trade. And here many will have a content if we don’t want to film ourselves there ? How in general, and then,
[13:41] well, how should we proceed then? Here we have two solutions. The first is to make some anonymous content, which will simply be taken from some other footage, some editing will be done, and, in fact, just this kind of
[13:53] content. post it, but it doesn't work as effectively as videos with AI, right? That is, we can create our own AI character, who will, uh , tell something, do some creative work with him, do market analysis with him
[14:06] , put him there, say, as you see me now, somewhere in the circle you see me now, somewhere in the circle above, also put him, uh, in our analyses and analytics, voice him either with our own voice, or use
[14:18] Eleven Laps. Now Aishka, well, is coping with all of this just wonderfully. And, in fact, we have such a solution. What are we even doing with this whole audience Telegram channel. Why a Telegram channel? Why do
[14:32] n't we just put a link somewhere in the YouTube description or on Instagram? Because our audience won't immediately go and register somewhere after the first video . She won't have any proper motivation and there simply won't be any
[14:44] point in her doing this, well, doing this. That's why we're creating a the audience, show some reviews, showcase some of our successful deals, then engage with the audience,
[14:56] open comments, and engage with subscribers, perhaps even with subscribers, perhaps even works very well in this niche with analytics, with analyses, with, uh, the fact that you will be
[15:10] helping someone, explaining where and what mistakes they made in their trading strategies. And, in fact, thanks to all of this, we will, so to speak, increase the value of our channel, people will be more loyal to everything
[15:25] that happens on Telegram. And also through Telegram, we will be able to actually which a person will go and not just watch some news already inside the telegram, but then somehow interact with our channel.
[15:39] this funnel should lead. Well, of course, here again, crypto, in fact, people for the most part come not for any specific analysis, but for some kind of community, for someone
[15:52] else's opinion, because they have n't yet formed their own position, they don't know, uh, whether they did the right thing or not . And most people need a certain,
[16:05] community, yes, where people will communicate, help each other, and, well, one says that it didn’t work out for me , the second says that he also has such-and-such results in cryptocurrency. This will already
[16:20] unite, in fact, this community. And the guys will be much, well, more active than if this community didn’t exist. And, actually, this is what our funnel should look like, right? So, how do you connect a person to a referral program, right? That
[16:35] is, he has been trading on Binance his whole life, and now he needs to be transferred to some other exchange. How can we do this? But here, in fact, everything is simple. We have to give him some value, right? So he should see the meaning in this
[16:47] action, right? That is, if we simply tell him: "Register on Bing just this, because he’s already just used to one exchange, to one interface. But if we reach them, we give them some value, we show them that
[17:03] we have some analytics, we understand all of this, we know how to work with these signals, and we can provide access to some channel where all this analytics, all these setups, signals, and everything else will be published. Then
[17:17] such a lead will be interested in joining where, in fact, all these deals and signals will be published. And fairly high price to show that this community
[17:32] some audience there that has paid this price. And the person will think that, well, $299 per month is somehow too much for him. It doesn't sound very pleasant, but we give him a second
[17:47] free if he simply registers using our link and starts trading using our, well, actually, our link to the exchange. So, a person understands that he gets a value of as much as 300 dollars
[18:01] just by going through a little hassle, redoing verification, transferring his finances to another exchange, spending 5-10 minutes there, but getting, in fact, a product worth 300 dollars essentially for free. In fact, this is how
[18:13] we attract the audience. In fact, just 10 referrals are enough to easily start earning $4,000-$5,000. And sometimes, in fact, I had cases where just a couple of people came in with capital of
[18:27] 10, 20, 30, and, well, some even came in with 100,000 dollars. And even without trading with any significant leverage, they had a turnover of around 4-5 million per day. They opened many trades, closed many trades, and were already
[18:43] receiving huge income from just one or two referrals. So the most important thing here is to focus on, well, not on some large scale, on, I don’t know, thousands of subscribers, but on working with each
[18:57] individually, yes, in order to, so to speak, warm up your audience as much as possible, to and, in fact, lead people to register on the platform itself. I want to say right away that this trend feels
[19:12] like MBL somewhere around 1920, 191, maybe 21, when the market was simply empty, literally a couple of people knew about this niche, and at that time, , right? That is, well, it’s not that I didn’t play, yes, it’s just, ah, there wasn’t such
[19:28] popularity of one-win, Badboom, there, steak, some other platforms. The same thing is happening with the cryptocurrency market now . And those who can get in right now and recruit as many of these referrals as possible will be able to
[19:41] secure a stable passive income for several years simply from referrals who have already registered and are already trading. They understand what kind of industry this is. It's are trying to break free from some kind of addiction. Here we have people who, well,
[19:57] specifically come for trading. Some people have some make money from it, and such people will definitely remain your referrals until someone, I don’t know, another one transfers them under some more favorable conditions. But
[20:11] again, there is almost no competition in the market here . And no one will really communicate with you , or really warm you up to go into some private room. Most often they will just send you a price list and say
[20:24] , well, go ahead and use the price list. And, in fact, if you get such leads once, that’s it, they will be with you for a long time. And if you're looking for more information on creating your own projects on Telegram, this is
[20:37] just one area. And I talk about all this in my Telegram. In fact, I have , as for crypto, as for everything. Ah, so I think you can
[20:49] join in. You will like it super, it will be super useful. Basically, that's all You simply won't find this kind of information anywhere else. You can try searching on YouTube. Ah, that's all.
