The Market Moves in Narratives — Not Noise

Every crypto cycle crowns a new trend.

If you understand the narrative early, you don’t chase pumps — you position.

2022 was the era of NFTs — culture, speculation, digital identity.

2023 became a year of testing — infrastructure, users, and conviction.

2024 shifted into tapping — mobile adoption, on-chain actions, and gamified participation.

2025 is about yapping — attention economy, social layers, and narrative-driven value.

Now pause here…

2026 won’t be obvious at first.

It will look playful. Experimental. Even “useless.”

That’s how every major narrative starts.

By the time it makes sense to everyone,

early positioning is already gone.

The smart move isn’t asking what already works —

it’s spotting what feels fun before it feels profitable.

I have a strong thesis on what defines 2026…

but I want to hear the crowd first.
