A Stranger Gave Me 1.35 Bitcoin...Then This Happened

Way back in 2013, a stranger gave me 1.35 Bitcoin.

At the time, 1.35 Bitcoin was worth $150.

And today, that same amount of Bitcoin is worth...well...I'll let you do the math.

You see, I owned a software company called Long Tail Pro...and a stranger reached out to me and said, "Hey, can I pay for Long Tail Pro with Bitcoin?".

And this began my incredible journey with Bitcoin.

I didn't really know all the ins and outs of Bitcoin, how to set up a wallet, and if it would be worth anything in the future.

But we made the deal!

So, I was the proud owner of 1.35 Bitcoin.

But would I remember my password to my wallet?

Did I hold onto it after all these years?

I mean do people really hold onto Bitcoin for over 11 years and just watch it increase in price without selling?

And more importantly, how do I use business trends to spot the "next Bitcoin" or better yet...a perhaps more guaranteed way of making money than waiting for the next Bitcoin?

Well, you'll be happy to know that I tell this entire crazy story in today's YouTube video.

Watch my video here: How a Stranger Gave Me 1.35 Bitcoin...and What Happened Next

I hope you enjoy this video as much as I enjoyed telling this never before shared story.

Let me know what you think.


How to Detect Your Missing Product and Affiliate Links with AI

If you sell your own products or promote affiliate products on your website, then you know that links to those products are critical to your bottom line.

What if I told you that with AI you can now detect which products are mentioned on your website...that DON'T have affiliate links being used?

In other words, the AI will detect potential missed opportunities where you could monetize your articles better!

Well, this is exactly what a brand new feature of Link Whisper does!

Last week, I explained that Link Whisper now integrates with OpenAI to help build topical clusters and visual sitemaps.

You can read more about that new visual topical clusters feature here.

However, as part of this new AI integration...Link Whisper can now visually show you your product "maps".

In a nutshell, using AI, Link Whisper detects all the products mentioned for any given article and quickly shows you which ones are "unlinked".

These unlinked products are opportunities.

In order to access this feature in Link Whisper, simply go to Reports > Visual Sitemaps, and then select "AI-Detected Product Sitemap" in the dropdown menu.

Here's an example of what that AI Detected Product Sitemap looks like:

This shows just one article on my site. This article mentions several products or brands like Lululemon sportswear, Toms shoewear, and Allbirds sneakers.

All of these COULD be affiliate links, but they currently are not.

These are missed opportunities on my site.

With Link Whisper + AI, I can now quickly view at a high level which missed opportunities I have for product links, and I can decide if I want to add those links.

If you already have Link Whisper, be sure to integrate with OpenAI first using these steps here.

Then take it for a spin and let me know what you think!

If you don't have Link Whisper yet, I highly recommend you check out these new AI features we just released last week!

You can get the visual AI sitemaps (to quickly see your topical clusters and missing internal links), as well as the AI Detected Product Sitemaps.

If you don't currently own Link Whisper, go ahead and get $25 off the regular price with this special link here.
