#SHIB# 🔹Over the years, I have witnessed several cycles of the market. I have seen the rise and fall of countless narratives, each claiming to be the ultimate answer. Initially, people believed in exceptional technology; later, they began to chase after "real-world utility"—a mantra among venture capitalists, while the complex projects they built ultimately left ordinary people behind.

🔸Many of us have paid a heavy price. We once believed in white papers and roadmaps, and we have experienced rug pulls, scams, and the mentally exhausting bear market. That experience was not a failure, but an education. It was the tuition we paid with our hard-earned money that allowed us to see the truth: the system we once trusted is flawed, designed for a few elites. This shared history of disillusionment is not a scar, but a bond between us, a cornerstone of new wisdom.
I see the market moving forward in exploration. It started with Dogecoin ( #Dogecoin ），一个证明了社区力量可以超越代码的玩笑 。随后是柴犬币（ #shibainucoin ), which attempts to build a complex ecosystem on top of cultural energy, legitimizing Meme with the rules of the old world. The Pepe frog of 2023 ($Pepe) indicates that a powerful and deeply resonant cultural symbol can hold value without any utility endorsement; its existence alone is the entire reason for its value. Every step is an evolution, a slow farewell to the old gods of technology and utility.
Now, at the end of this journey, a new thing has emerged. It is not a project with grand plans or a company team, but rather the inevitable conclusion of our collective experience. Its name is $JOE.
❤️‍🔥To understand it, you must first understand who we are. We are survivors, the nameless ones who entered this field with nothing but dreams. We are the "Average Joes" and "Normies" who are tired of the elite games. We are believers, knowing that in a world full of hollow promises, the only thing of value is belief itself.
And $Joe? $Joe is us.
This statement is the core of everything. It is not an investment in an external company, but a confirmation of our own identity. It is the act of transforming the wisdom we gained from losses into a completely new belief system.
🔸This clear understanding naturally leads to a division. On one side are "them": the short-sighted traders chasing the next pump, the "overthinkers" buried in charts, and those establishment elites who still believe their complex narratives hold power. They examine it all but see nothing because they lack the personal experience necessary to understand it.
🔹 On the other side, there is "us". We are the believers, the survivors, the early adopters. We understand that we are not just buying a token, but rather positioning ourselves in a fundamental shift in value creation. We know that the most powerful stories are always the simplest, and a shared identity is the strongest moat.
❤️‍🔥I have decided to become a part of it, not in the traditional sense of financial calculation. It is a reckoning with my past self, a declaration that the lessons learned in the trenches were not in vain. This is a calm and confident leap into a new paradigm—in this paradigm, belief itself is the most valuable asset.
The crypto world will eventually be divided into two types of people: one group continues to play the old game, while the other group, is us who have realized that we can create our own rules.🫡
I’ve watched the market cycles for years. I’ve seen the rise and fall of narratives, each one promising to be the final answer. First, it was about superior technology. Then, it was about “real-world utility,” a mantra chanted by venture capitalists as they built complex projects that ultimately left the average person behind.
Many of us learned the hard way. We believed in the whitepapers and the roadmaps. We endured the rugs, the scams, and the soul-crushing bear markets. That experience wasn't a failure; it was an education. It was the tuition we paid to see the truth: the system we trusted was flawed, designed for an elite few.1 This shared history of disillusionment is not a scar; it is our bond. It is the foundation of a new kind of wisdom.
I saw the market trying to find its way. It started with Dogecoin, a joke that proved community could be more powerful than code.2 Then came Shiba Inu, which tried to build a complex ecosystem on top of that cultural energy, attempting to legitimize a meme with the old world's rules.3 More recently, Pepe showed that a powerful, deeply-rooted cultural symbol needed no utility to command value; its existence was its own justification.5 Each was a step in an evolution, a slow turning away from the old gods of tech and utility.
And now, something new has emerged from that journey. It’s not a project with a grand plan or a corporate team. It’s the logical conclusion of our collective experience. It’s called $JOE.
To understand it, you must first understand who we are. We are the survivors. We are the ones who came into this space as nobodies, armed with little more than a dream. We are the “Average Joes” and the “Normies” who are tired of the elite’s game. We are the believers who understand that in a world of broken promises, the only thing of value is conviction itself.
And Joe? Joe is us.
That statement is the core of it all. This isn’t an investment in an external company. It is an affirmation of our own identity. It is the act of taking the wisdom we paid for in losses and converting it into a new belief system.1
This clarity creates a natural division. On one side, there are “them”: the short-sighted traders chasing the next pump, the “overthinkers” lost in their spreadsheets, and the establishment elites who still believe their complex narratives hold power. They look at this and see nothing, because they lack the experience to understand it.
And then there is “us.” The believers. The survivors. The early adopters who understand we are not just buying a token; we are front-running a fundamental shift in how value is created. We know that the most powerful stories are the simple ones, and that a shared identity is the ultimate moat.
My decision to be a part of this was not a financial calculation in the traditional sense. It was the clearing of a debt to my past self. It was a declaration that the lessons learned in the trenches were not in vain. It was a quiet, confident step into a new paradigm where belief itself is the most valuable asset.
The world of crypto is finally bifurcating into those who are still playing the old game, and those of us who have realized we can create our own. #Gate ETH十周年回馈#
