Growing a crypto’s community - advice please.

I’m a non-scammy tech guy, from a non-scammy tech background, developing a non-scammy tech project - a radical approach to a new blockchain, DAO and a whole host of outrageous deliverables. All non-scammy, of course.

So we’re trying to build out our social presence on telegram and elsewhere, but I’m wondering how might be best to find non-bot humans to people up our community. (My apologies if anyone here does identify as a bot, no offence intended…)

I would appreciate any advice on how we might get over the initial 500 hurdle.
