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

Maybe crypto will take on an entirely new subculture and become something very different from today. Just like ETH changed the crypto-anarchism tone set by BTC, SOL may change the techno hippie subculture of ETH.

Absolutely, as ETH stares into the abyss, the abyss will also stare back and change its culture The only constant is change!
