The evolution of crypto narratives tells quite a story. Back in 2020, everyone was obsessed with mining—the original value narrative. By 2021, gaming had captured the hype cycle, promising play-to-earn everything. Then came 2023, when the buzz shifted to clicking—simplicity became the meme. 2024 brought tapping mechanics as the hot trend, each app chasing that next billion users fantasy. Now in 2025, it's all about yapping—communities, discourse, and endless talking points. The real question hanging over 2026? Whether all this evolution actually delivers those legendary 10,000× returns everyone keeps chasing, or if we're just cycling through narratives waiting for the next breakthrough.

Mining, gaming, clicking, clicking, yapping... Bro, this is just a narrative roulette wheel, just spin it and it's over.

From mining to clicking to yapping, we're like chasing butterflies in a garden. Every time we think we've caught one, it's just an illusion... 10,000 times. I think it's high time to wake up.

To be honest, from mining to clicking to rambling, this cycle is just a hot potato game... In the end, whoever takes over will be the one to get screwed.

Mining → Play to Earn → Click → Tap lightly → Chatting, a new narrative every year. My principal was long gone in 2021 along with the gaming dream. Now, it's just a matter of seeing who can catch the baton last and take the relay.
