yep, i had a bag of zee doge coin.
why?
it’s a meme coin,
no real utility,
abandonware,
all a bit of a joke really.. ..
. .. the perfect foundations for the under belly pulse of the internet to get behind and push up to make MORE of because, well, just for the lulz really, few understand that most of the time, something like this for the upcoming generation who already have choices and options we never had are not really interested in just money, they want experiences, they want to be in the tribe that makes things shoot up, or fall or change behaviour.
we are living through the times of empowerment engines that are running on straight social media fuel of waves of speculation and smartly crafted media messaging.
i rode that curve, then i swapped out to tokens that have a value a year down the road, that push this whole ecosystem (instead of egosystem) forward, then my bags of VET and LTC started to moon as well, then the call of BSV i said the other day started to show up.
the cause and effect of crypto is one of my favourite things about the space, tribes are made and broken down in a blink of an eye, everything seems to have a shelf life of about seventy two hours before the attention is pulled away by the new latest trend or “in time relevant” activity that you have to get behind to be in with the cool kids.
knowing the latest meme,
know the best crypto to get behind,
supporting that up and coming new creator,
noticing someone underrated deserves time over some thing overrated.
but also the journey of how you follow this stuff is where the reward really lays, you have to watch the trends of up and down, the dips and troughs, where it came from, how it stayed around, what attributes are potentially evolving from stupid > discussion > speculation and then just MOONing because it’s the pulse of the internet rebellion and fuck all common sense.
It’s a quantifiable, visible thing, it’s like music that get’s remixed every three years for a different audience, samples and remixes of a classic song that you grew up with, remade for a new crowd who never experienced that before but who quickly own it for themselves like it’s the starting point to their NFT style experience of a moment.
the reason i’m switching from centralised to decentralised was not purely because of immutability it’s because mainly of speed, realising where we are heading too, that jobs are vanishing and being replaced by robotic expressions of efficiency, where health care and other things that contribute to a humans life of relative comfort is built around removing pain, longevity and solving issues we created in the first place in the pursuit of wonderment and supposed self advancement.
tangent. pause.
for the first time since the pandemic, because of crypto and the “abundance” mindset of the moment i’ve been able to HODL a little bit moving forward, a little play ground for applications that i’ll be moving into over the next year, the game is to play with the new, see how it removes obstacles and roadblocks, not just removing middlemen, but doing things better and in the way it should have always been, access for all, lowest costs, your digital signature is your bond.
that’s why i get excited about SNARKS and blockchains that are impossibly small, yet promise so much, things just evolve in this space so fast, ideas are flipped on it’s head at the speed of light, bands from twenty years ago dribbling by on low monthly spotify plays suddenly propelled at the speed of light to the top spots again because of a random tiktok video that brought the “feels” or hit a “mood” decided by anonymous crowd swell of people “vining” for
the first time on a hit from our generations teenager years.
tangent. pause.
follow the blips,
back impulses,
read the room,
but most of all, have fun.
crypto is a laugh.
enjoy it, let it flow over you
learn to ignore it from time to time,
support your favs, stay for the journey!
Humble x
PS.. thank you doge, you made my year!
BEING PRESENT IS THE NEW DIAL TONE.
