1/2 still can’t get pump.fun out of my head.

what grabbed me first was the UX—it's so 4chan-coded. raw, lo-fi, anon vibes. but paired with this hyperactive, bumping-thread energy… except it’s not threads, it’s tokens. the pace feels like a wall street ticker tape on speed. your lizard brain says “we’re working,” even though all you’re doing is staring at colored boxes and clicking.

what’s wild (and this is just early impressions, i’ve only been deep diving for a bit) is that the illusion of work, mixed with the belief that there’s a skill curve, makes it feel more like a game—addictive, high stakes, dopamine factory. and if you win, you didn’t just get lucky, no no—you're a genius investor. you “read the market,” “did the research,” “saw what others missed.” classic ego trip. and if you lose? it wasn’t randomness—it just means you need to grind harder next time.

Jacek talks pump.fun such a way that wouldn’t be shocked if he launches $YASEK tomorrow and we all ape in thinking it’s early solana meta 😭😂

Btw: The 🎩 Stays On, As Always
