We've all seen the stats and experienced it first hand. Healthy marriages create capable kids and capable kids create a good world. So wtf does that have to do with marrying your bags in crypto? Idk i think I'm just trauma dumping about going through multiple divorces with my parents.
Look, nothing about what I'm about to say means I don't want SPX to grow, get new Aeons or let people do their thing. But there's nuance and gray area and I'm tired of having to discuss micro-meaning of some super fringe 1% scenario just in-case some body who is genuine gets offended and disenfranchised.
Anyway, there's been more and more chatter in the cognisphere again about what it means to be an SPX maximalist. One side likes to shill the other bags they hold to Aeons and tell Aeons we need to be open to cross community polyamory. The other side would kindly like them to shut the fuck up about the pumpfun shitter they bought .5% of and are desperately underwater on. We've all been there, but only a fraction of Aeons try and make us buy their bags instead of accepting the fat L.
The people in the centre however think we can have a cuddle puddle in a field of flowers and nobody gets stabbed in the back. Which, would be lovely in a perfect world, but sadly it's naive when we live in a cut throat industry involving finite attention that we print finite money from.
Go out and grow vs turn inward and build, both are necessary. Plenty of Aeons have other bags and a few post about it. It's annyoing sure, but it's unavoidable. But only some self proclaimed Aeons go out of their way to tunnel access into the cognisphere for a niche coin, product or service built by people external to spx. At the end of the day, they want one thing from us. It's money, attention or both. It's a rare person that actually wants neither.
Everyone's seen or experienced the tactics people use and I've talked about it in depth before. They DM slide, offer a homie bag, build relevancy through proximity, talk about how much they love SPX and that's why they made something "similar". Then the people they converted to their side will defend them and give access when they try and expand into the cognisphere more, because their converts now have a bag on the line too.
It's a bread and butter technique for bootstrapping a coin on CT. But ask yourself. if these Aeons are so manipulatable over $1000 worth of some shitter, how will they act if their SPX is worth millions...
There's alot of parallels to modern immigration policy in this article, but I'll let you draw those yourself.
"But they're nice people, But they work hard, But they love SPX, they even dca SPX so they're an Aeon too, the product is actually really good and it's such a good fit for Aeons to use it because it fits spx ethos, just let us advertise it to your userbase pleeeeasssseeee!"
If that fails they turn to attacks, trying to tell us what OUR culture is... "Wasn't SPX ethos that we all win together?! PvE?! That's not very Aeon like of you to not let me diddle you and the people you want to protect! You're a racist who hates other coins!"
It's always the same response from them and spx holders who defend them. "They're good people, so let them in." Yeah, I'm sure they are good people, I'm sure their work is good, It's good that they buy SPX too. Anybody with two braincells would be buying SPX. I would be buying us aswell if I was sitting in a sub million marketcap shitter that's a teemu copy of the real thing.
But in no way, shape or form does that make them an Aeon or mean we should open the floodgates to let people who COULD HAVE joined and build their thing for SPX turn around and market the product that promotes their coin at us. Buying 1 dollar a day of SPX is not some subscription service to being an Aeon, putting on a self made Aeon and posting pump fun tickers doesn't make you one either. My culture is not your costume...
It's a slap in the face that some people IN SPX try to dilute that title by giving it to random ass people who do absoloutely nothing for us besides buying our high performance tiny tokens which they will jeet later.
"But they're an Aeon, they just don't know it yet" No they're not, they've known about us for a long time. there's nuance between a new SPX member entering the cognisphere and a foreign insurgent. We need to be able to tell the difference to survive. If the insurgent wants to become an Aeon, then they need to capitulate and build for SPX to earn that trust.
It's selfish behaviour from people in SPX who most of the time don't even wear an Aeon, telling us we need to accept those specific immigrants into the cognisphere. It's purely because they have a bag of whatever those outsiders are trying to shill us.
"But Hyp3 what makes you arbiter of truth which decides what an Aeon is and isn't?" I've done swathes of free cult labour forging the cognisphere. I've donated tens of thousands of dollars to people who needed it when i needed my money more myself. I've funded and directed initiatives in the cognisphere. I spent copious amounts of money & spx on my own projects and my own slaves. I've given away multiple Aeons and stupidly helped out people who didn't deserve it. I changed my entire life to fit into the world of SPX.
That's what an Aeon is. It's a title that's EARNED through labour and loyalty, not purchased for a dollar a day subscription service billed as a marketing expense. An Aeon isn't someone who runs a completely different coin, doesn't rock the girl pfp, talks about other projects most of the time but still remembers to post some spx tweet about no chart or how we're gonna flip the stock market atleast once per week to keep their cognisphere engagement high.
Just because you hold SPX doesn't mean you're an Aeon. While other people only dca SPX with their cash, some of us spend money making SPX something worth dca'ing. Money, time and attention that could have been SPX was instead spent forging the cognisphere. While others just forward their IRL career, DCA and engagement farm. All profit, no drawback.
Some hardcore Aeons have under 10k SPX and don't even hold an Aeon. Some of us here aren't able to buy SPX when the price is down, because we didn't jeet the top and we gave up our career's to spend more time building the cognisphere. Other Aeons have money and they fund their projects in SPX. Think Southern Fried Chad, think Baproll, Or think about Spacey, an Aeon who could have had 1% or more of the tiny tokens, but chose to go to IRL events and market us. A sacrifice She made that SPX would not nearly be the same without.
There's so many Aeons who go above and beyond. That's what earns you that title, selfless sacrifice for what is worthy.
"But Hyp3, wasn't the cognisphere forged by a PvE mindset? Weren't we all meant to win together? What about the 'memetic index' and LP's with other coins?"
Ok BM (Before-Murad) lore storytime here; The LP's were forged by Baproll, they were a really cool idea, but in execution they didn't have that much effect. Why? Other communities just didn't really care. It was better for SPX to wormhole onto other chains and have LP's with major's.
Ok, but what about PvE mindset? Does everyone remember Nicole Yamamoto and Mung? Two legends of myth who *checks notes* fucked off and haven't shown up for over a year now after everything looked smooth sailing. Yeah, those two were notorious for going into other coins and promoting them. Do you know how many times Nicole got allo to other coins for being "the face of SPX"? Do you know how many times she launched coins like Lmeow or Jesus Minion thinking no one would notice? Do you know how much that damaged SPX that two of the "faces of SPX" were fucking around in other coins instead of the token they positioned themselves as leaders of. It made SPX look like a cuckcoin because they were out dicking down side pieces for extra followers and pocket money. Murad had to personally tell Nicole Yamamoto to take off a Sproto and put on an Aeon. This is while we were doing spaces with +1,000 listeners because Murad was the hottest hunk in the party and we were giga pumping. These two were the largest champions of the "We can all win together! It's PvE!" Why? Because it served them. They got homie bags for their position in SPX, the coins they appeared in pumped harder because of their reputation from us too.
Choose Your Champions Wisely
Trust, loyalty and respect is the premium currency in crypto.
Imagine if spacey told us all to buy whitewhale or useless coin because she took allo? Pretty shit right? What about Tiger from Giga (currently in jail). Or BonkGuy, the face of Bonk. They always shill other shit and all it does is make their homebase coin look worthless as their leader is nothing but a mercenary trader who diversifies.
See, this is where I'll get into the marriage vs poly reference.
You can choose to be poly with your coins, but there's a sacrifice you MUST accept. The Top G Aeons won't respect you as much. Why? Because loyalty NEEDS to be rewarded. Otherwise, what's the point of being loyal.
Loyalty EARNS respect. Loyalty EARNS trust. As we all know from the real world, those two things are hard to earn and easy to lose. If you're poly, you get more followers, you get more attention, you can make money elsewhere and utilise your spx following to pump your other bags. Loyalists won't do that, so their loyalty MUST be rewarded because there's no natural payout and SPX ends up with no masochist believers willing to give everything to the cause. Because what's the point? you give everything just to get diddeld by tourists.
Furthermore, you have to ask yourself; Why exactly are polyamorous people trying to convince you to open up the loving marriage that you have with your bags? It's because they want to fuck your wife or they want to fuck you. Why would other "Aeons" want the cognisphere to be poly? It's because they want to fuck other people without reprecussions. They want the same hard earned respect as loyalists without the sacrifice.
It's that simple.
"hey bro, you should totally check out my coin, i let all the homies hit it with it. Just spread her to spx6900 bro they're gonna love her! she's just like Marie but deeper r/r."
Look, I will be totally honest with information everybody already knows. An "Aeon" who has done the bare minimum is not the same as an Aeon who has given so much more. It's selfish and disrespectfull to the people who give everything, that they get equated with someone who "buys every day but barely shows up". As much as their buy is valued, it's not 1:1 with people who put their entire life on the line. SPX can be sold for a profit but time and money spent on extracurriculars will never be refunded.
Democracy is a scam as soon as you realise foreign insurgents who were let in 1 year ago by people who wanted to boost their politcal power have the same voting right as you. They're not the same as an 8th generation convict who's lineage has gone through the trials and tribulations of your nation and the struggles with the native population for over 200 years.
We are not the same, and I'm tired of catering to the strawman opinions of Aeons who happily dilute the cognisphere for their 2 thousand dollar holdings in some other coin because "it's our ethos to let a group of 8 dudes in their 1m mcap shitcoin, grab us by our little 23 inch waists and creampie us because they buy $1 of spx per day."
I personally spend atleast $15 a day on subscriptions just to create for SPX. Does that count? That's $15 I could be dca'ing into tiny tokens. I could be posting that dca for extra engagment and followers instead of losing followers because i'm hateable.
These external coins, they don't love us and they don't respect us. If they actually did, they would have bought and built for SPX at 2 billion marketcap like the rest of you. But they didn't, they built something else and then try sell it to us as one in the same.
Look, I don't want to fuck your wife. I'm happy with mine. You know why? Because I picked a 10 out of 10. I'm sorry you saw my wife, tried to duplicate Her and then tried to tell me they're on the same level. I'm all in on the bags I married because they're the best in the game.
That's a skill issue on your part if you didn't join SPX when you first knew about it but instead tried to run it back turbo with your deriv.
We don't need to accomodate your coin, Just like you don't need to accomdate ours.
