 “We’re all going to make it.”

This is what WAGMI meant, and it was always a delusion peddled by crypto influencoors to whom “making it” meant getting rich at the ignorance and on the backs of others. It was never possible, and it was never real.

When you realize that proof of work actually means making something, creating something, building something that lasts, that’s when it becomes more than just an empty catch phrase.

Then—and only then—can you say that we’re all going to MAKE IT.
