Part of the reason why CT is in shambles right now is because it tends to be mostly geeks and mops, with sociopaths that come in waves (eg. SBF) But this is the first time that the subculture has been “embraced” by a sociopath of this caliber Half the crowd sees this as a good thing — a sign of growth and mainstream adoption to come! The other half sees a subculture that is being exploited and may not control the narrative anymore. And at worst may cease to exist in accordance to its founding values Ethereum in particular is in a tough place because it most embodies the eternalistic naïveté that draws meaning from the subculture. Whereas Solana early on embraced the nihilism that makes it attractive to sociopaths I’m not exactly sure where we go from here, but I’m trying to hold onto the “beautiful New Thing” while adjusting my priors to account for the increased realism to come https://x.com/nic__carter/status/1880992576213590182?s=46 https://meaningness.com/geeks-mops-sociopaths

The clash between geeks, mops, and sociopaths in the CT subculture is causing division and uncertainty about its future direction. Some view the involvement of a sociopath as a sign of growth, while others fear exploitation and loss of control. The struggle between eternalistic and nihilistic values in projects like Ethereum and Solana adds to the complexity. The subculture is at a crossroads, with some wanting to preserve its founding values while adapting to a changing landscape. It remains to be seen how this will unfold
