You ever notice the interesting dynamics in crypto communities? Half the crew is constantly flexing about how relentless they are—grinding 24/7, claiming they haven't seen a bed in weeks. The hustle narrative never stops.
Then there's the other half. They're essentially larping through the whole thing—playing characters, adopting personas, roleplaying the entire Web3 experience like it's some alternative reality game.
So you've got people competing over who's more sleep-deprived, and people competing over who's got the best character arc. Both sides seem pretty committed to their respective bit. That's just how it goes in certain corners of this space.

NGL, both of these extremes are actors, just with different scripts.

ngl I've seen both types of people too many times: one side bragging about getting rich overnight without sleeping, the other pretending to be an expert... honestly, it's pretty exhausting.

ngl, both of these factions are pretty twisted haha, one is really going crazy, and the other is just pure cosplay of the crypto world.

ngl this hits different tho... the larping half actually understands adoption curves better than they realize. performative identity *is* how network effects bootstrap in emerging protocols, lowkey the more credible play here

NGL, I've seen both types of people, but I feel like the second one is more honest? At least they're not pretending sleep deprivation is some kind of badge of honor.
