Influencer Abdu Rozik says the key to crypto success is being a good person.
While celebrity-launched memecoins often cause controversy, social media influencer and singer Abdurozik Savrikul Muhammedroziqi, better known as “Abdu Rozik,” says the solution is simple: be a good person.
Speaking at the Bitcoin MENA event in Abu Dhabi, Rosick shared his plans to explore the crypto and blockchain space. Rosick, who is also known as an actor, boxer and singer, told Cointelegraph that his foray into crypto was inspired by fans.
The social influencer, who has more than eight million followers on Instagram, says his fans are asking him to explore digital assets. “My fans keep messaging me saying I should try crypto,” Rosick said. “I decided to shoot because they support me. why not? Let's do this.
Rozick is known for his rivalry with fellow social media influencer Hasbula Magomedov. Magomedov challenged the singer to a mixed martial arts fight, but it didn't happen after the Russian Dwarf Athletic Association (RDAA) deemed it unethical.
Despite entering the space, Rosick emphasized the importance of goodwill when dealing with the crypto community.
Pumping and dumping will ruin your job
Many celebrity-backed crypto projects have gone south. Most recently, viral influencer Haley Welch's HAWK memecoin briefly pumped and dropped 90%, drawing backlash from members of the crypto community.
Rosick says the answer should be “nice guy.” The famous man said that if you are a good person wherever you go, people will respect you. But if you do the opposite, “no one will love you.” He added:
“If you're doing something good for people, if you're doing clean work with crypto, and if you're doing some real benefit to your fans, then that's the obvious way. But if you're driving, dumping, and people are sad, that's not good. It ruins your career.”
The 21-year-old influencer, who spent just a month learning about crypto, highlighted his ability to quickly adopt it. “I've just started, but I've learned a lot since I learned English in one year. My mind is very fast. I can pick things up quickly,” he said.

Blockchain issues using memecoins
Crypto proponents such as former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao have urged the community to focus on practical blockchain applications rather than memecoins. In the year November 26, Zhao encouraged the community to build real applications, memories become strange.
In his speech at the Bitcoin MENA event, Zhao emphasized the further use cases of blockchain when asked where the crypto space is headed. While people still view Bitcoin (BTC) as an investment asset, he said he believes the space will “see more utility” in the coming decade.
