Read this. Then read it again. Then read it once more. The year is now 2029. Chillhouse has been outlawed by President AOC. You will spend the rest of your days slaving away in a vegan labour camp milking the soyboys. Thanks for playing.
Lots of cycles in crypto follow a similar pattern where people who are older and made their money over two years ago cry and whine as a new style of asset/shitcoin rises into prominence. During these cycles some of the most cunning members of the new unc classes join the ranks of the new zoomers. Bitcoiners and ETH/defi Eth maxis and ICOs / alt L1s ICOoors /alt L1s and NFTs NFT artists/collectors and ETH cult coins ETH cult coiners and SOL memecoins/cults ChillHouse is the current rendition of this. It is the transition from a millennial / old genz market to a young genz / gen alpha market. It is a transition from ironic cult coins to post-ironic humour coins. Many members of the old guard are uncomfortable watching @ChillHouseSOL post daily about derivatives, self fud, and intrusive thoughts. However, this is exactly why chillhouse works. Let me explain further... This phenomenon is not isolated to either crypto nor to current generations. Take rock & roll in the 50/60s, personal computing in the 80s, GTA/HALO/COD & other FPSs in the early 2000s. Many different industries/time periods repeat the pattern. Each new turning has something to do with the unique characteristics of the new generation - characteristics which are generally deemed wild, disagreeable, & immoral by the new uncs. Now that the context is established, I implore you to take a look at the current state of CT... We post in an environment where if you post the "wrong" thing people get very upset. A central tenant of *most* large account's (that are >2/3 yrs old) morals is that if an account has X followers then they cannot post about any asset <Y market cap. There are, of course, legit moral judgements here - that one can affect price in a way that the large majority of their followers loose is indeed not great. The flip side is that there are very real negative consequences to everyone holding this moral tenant. If accounts get big by posting about little coins, then restricting them from doing so is restricting their growth, personality, and freedom quite a lot. Generally, older gen Z and millennials are morally interested in things like maintaining friendships and staying genuine to a large degree. Gen alpha and younger gen Z do not care so much about those things (due largely to their digital based lives) and instead care more about things like cunningness and teamwork ability. Due to this, the first group prefers a coin like spx6900 while the latter prefers a coin like chillhouse. If you want to be one of the cunning members of the unc class, then imagine you are just signing up to CT: You are intimidated as hell and delayed making your account because you heard from your crypto friend that you need to be in an OG group chat to win. You spend your first two weeks DMing big accounts asking to be in their chat, and receive 0 responses. You decide to start posting memes more cuz it's fun, and finally start getting some interaction. You keep on this way for a couple months and start buying coins people made for some of these memes. You are good at posting (and thus good at finding good coins early) so you have 10k followers at this point. One or two of the coins hit 100m and you take some profit (an intelligent move) and buy a few new coins. You wake up the next day to see a thread about how you are dumping on your followers, you comment your POV and move on to your new coins, which you bought at a similar market cap as the ones that hit 100m. This time instead of other funny people, your comments are full of haters calling you a farmer and a scammer. After a week or two of this, you decide to off-ramp a bit more to the bank and stop posting much. Chillhouse fixes this, because you can do anything you want, truly, with Chillhouse due to an intentional top-down culture of humour/content above all. If the main account of the best new memecoin can post about derivatives, then everyone is free to post/do whatever they want again.
