But Ser
What the hell does this term mean?
You're new to crypto twitter, take this slang dictionary, you'll need it.
Alpha
Outperformance vs the beta (market average)
"Zhu Su is dropping so much free alpha this week"
Aped
This one has come straight from Crypto Twitter. It means "take on a large position relative to one's own portfolio size"
Apes have a strong NFT history - first, the famous 24 ape punks and then with Bored Ape Yacht Club.
"I aped Golden Snail, but DYOR"
Bell Curve
Few
Few is short for "few understand". Like "probably nothing" it is polite FOMO.
"MOMA bought a punk. Few"
Fren
Fren means "friend"
Because we are all friends here on a happy mission quest together.
FUD
Originally "fear uncertainty doubt". But also used to disparage a claim that isn't bullish enough.
_"100k BTC is FUD".
gmi / wagmi / ngmi
Gonna make it / We're all gonna make it / Not gonna make it
"MOMA just bought a punk. WAGMI"
gm
Good morning. Can be said any time.
LFG
Let's F***ing Go. Used when you are excited about something. Best used with rocket emojis.
"New Golden Snail mint. LFG 🚀🚀🚀"
McDonald's
Our backup career plan in case the NGMI scenario comes true
"Sold a Fidenza for 5ETH. Applying now to McDonald's"
Noob/Pleb
Newbie and Plebian. The opposite of OG. The polite way to use these terms is only about yourself.
"6529 is such a noob. I can't believe I forgot to mint the Golden Snail"
Ser
Means "Sir".
It is a way to respectfully introduce oneself or perhaps share an alternative point of view
"But Ser, wen token launch?"
Simp
A crypto simpleton. Sometimes is a groupie to a particular CT personality, for instance Irene. This led to the birth of Simp DAOs, a rather sad development.
Wen
When, but you don't have time to type the h.
"Wen NFT drop?"
