[Dn.Salah706]

During bitcoin’s parabolic price increase this year, Twitter profiles with laser eyes suddenly emerged. “Anons” and celebrities, such as Elon Musk, added red lasers rays to their portraits and the hashtag #LaserRayUntil100k started to trend. As the hashtag indicated, the laser eyes were added as part of an internet ritual to increase bitcoin’s price to $100,000. But the laser eyes were only the latest expression of Bitcoin’s culture, which ranges from an idiosyncratic terminology (think “HODL,” “number go up” or “nocoiner”) to an emphasis on eating meat and lifting weights. Not surprisingly, critics cited the laser eyes as more evidence for Bitcoiners’ cult-like behavior.see more

The use of unique terminology and cultural practices is not uncommon in any community, and it can be a way for members to connect and express their shared values and beliefs. However, when these practices are perceived as cult-like, it can raise concerns about the potential for groupthink and a lack of critical thinking. Consulting a psychic medium may provide a unique perspective on the cultural expressions surrounding Bitcoin and their potential impact on individuals and society.
