CHAPTER

Is the Subculture a New Thing?

I think there's a strong element of anti. Like you saw this with norm corpe, right? So i also think culture kind of moves in these cycles where it's like push and pool pull. There'll probably be strong movement of people who are not going to be omnipresent on line. Those groups exist to day, ri like there's the omish and the mormons. O and there are these super niche sub cultures but i think what we're seeing is like the rise of sub cultures and also the financialization of sub cultures. Crypto is a great example of that, because there's so many different sub cultures in crypto. And then you inject capital into these sub cultures

try and think,
Speaker 1
like, what are what, er, the ten year olds right now going to be doing in ten years, cause it's not going to be us, like as not goingto be what what we're doing in ten years, going to be what they're doing in ten years. It's going to be like, the height the cool new thing, but also the cool new thing. I also think there's a strong element of anti. Like you saw this with norm corpe, right? Like, if anyone remembers norm corps a few years ago, that was like, crazy fashioned street style. And there was a bunch of people who came out and they are like, we're going to dress like your dad. We're going to, weare like, shitty jeans and a, like dad sneakers and a, what are those? Like, crunchy sandals, the birken stocks. And they are like, norm cor is now the cool thing, because it's anti what's actually cool. So i also think culture kind of moves in these cycles where it's like push and pool pull. So there'll probably be strong movement of people who are like, hay, where not going to be omnipresent on line. E're going to assue technology. Those groups exist to day, ri like there's the omish and the mormons. O and there are these super niche sub cultures but i think what we're seeing is like the rise of sub cultures and also the financialization of sub cultures. Crypto is a great example of that, because there's so many different sub cultures in crypto. And then you inject capital into these sub cultures, and they start, like form, take on a little life of their own. We're just in a very specific sub culturebut i think there's all these really, like, fascinating sub cultures emerging. Like the cuanon thing. It was such an interesting phenomenon because it became so big so quickly, and it just consumed so many people who would normally never be taken in by something like this. And i think that's what you get when you get a society where people are afraid to go outside. We've been sitting in our houses and larping on the inner net for the last two years. Like, is very far cry from, like, how humans are accustomed to interacting. But i think crypto, in a way, has become its own sub culture, and that sub culture is now becoming main stream culture. And it's really fascinating to me. Like, i'm kind of scared to see crypto become mainstream culture. Crypto culture is kindo sy i guess theres ar elements of it that are really weird and gross. And like simpdaws are our one example of that, but there are many, many more. But i'm like, i don't knoiw. That's why i think the sociology angle, if this is so interesting, there is a whole phenomenon now, lik cryptos eating every culture. It's like permeating into every sub culture, whether it's art or fashion. Like, i used to have worlds go to that worrin about crypto, and now everywhere i go as about crypto. And i fuck ang hate it. Do it's whax. Like everywhere i go, people are like, hay, our in crypto. Like, can i talk to you about the shic coin that i own? And i'm like,
Speaker 3
no, no. You can't meything.
Speaker 1
