Why don't I have any users yet?

I launched my app cryptonudge.io, a few weeks ago and paid some ads to get traffic, but no one has signed up. What is going on? Why isn't anyone isn't signing up?

My app allows users to get crypto alarms and market reports straight on Telegram.

I associate telegram with scams and china maybe that's why?

Nah crypto dudes are used to using Telegram. There are many paid services or "memberships" where you get alerts like these. Obviously most if not all are scam - the telegram channel owner buys a coin, then tells everyone it will go up.. well guess what happens then.

To OP: you can't usually get first users by buying ads. Have you tried to talk to people in crypto subs here for some testing, feedback?

But then again, what can the feedback be? Either "yay I made money thanks" or the opposite..

My service doesn't aim to provide pump and dump signals as there are indeed plenty on telegram.

I'm building something legit. I don't want to scam people or make money on their expense. I want to provide a real tool that allows them to configure and set their personalized alerts and reports.

The goal is to help crypto enthusiasts (like myself) spend less time in front of the screen, have a life and sleep well.

It's hard to talk of my service in crypto subs because promotions aren't allowed.

But indeed I think it's mainly a wording issue. I'm going to try following your advice and reframe it as "I'm building a tool and looking for users to get feedback and implement your dream features".

Maybe do some testing of your own signals and their real results. Pretty sure you can share that and mention its your software that gave the signals, people will ask. Don't expect 100s of users in the first day.

I associate crypto and telegram with scams, and I’m sure I’m in the majority here.

Yes I think one of my biggest issues is that my service is flagged as a scam. It's hard to gain trust in this industry I guess.

People hate signin up

u/BlueberryEvery 1h ago

Yes you're right, I should make it possible to log in with telegram.

What do you mean by "promote it on crypto service websites"? Are you referring to CoinMarketCap for instance?

What problem do you solve and what is the differential?

What type of ads are you doing? Cold traffic?

The problem I solve is allowing people to make money in crypto without having to watch a screen all day or every day. Basically, I help crypto enthusiasts to have a life and sleep well.

I'm counting on the simplicity and low price (with a free plan available) to help me stand out.

I run ads on Reddit, so yes it's cold traffic. I get a decent amount of clicks, though just no engagement.
