Announcing the Lichess World Championship

I may not be a brilliant as you 3 but I'm unpredictable and that makes me unique in my own way
A world champion a week. Lichess will hold the world championship for generating the most world champions. (But is that really a competition you want to win?)
hopefully lichess will open for no FIDE title, player with minimum rating also are allowed to participate like FIDE World Championship.. other than min rating, also suggesting player that qualify from pre world cup tournament..

Arena FIDE i thought was recognise also by FIDE.. AGM title player with certain minimum rating should be allow to play...
Whats the easiest way to get a title?
I do hope this isn't serious. Being old enough to remember the Match of the Century (in Reykjavik, of course), or the Thrilla in Manila (the other real world title with a true mystique) I can't even try to compare. This is just inflation applied to World Champion titles, the same as wanton printing of banknotes leads to inflation of money and general poverty.

Step 1 : Be good
Step 2 : Don't be bad
Step 3 : participate in OTB tournaments that let you achieve norms (not all tournaments let you do norms) and have a high score there. It's not necessary to have a norm to be FM, but it is to be IM or GM.
Step 4 : Get the necessary elo (2300, 2400 and 2500 for FM, IM, GM respectively, not sure about the feminine titles anymore)

WGM is 200 lower than GM and so on.
