 I point towards @Karnage

 Karnage made a note about having a lot of Dan's here. And then the rest is history. 
β–² β–Ό
 @jack changed his name to dan because it was Dan’s birthday. Then the dan network effect did the rest.

 is it related to this, what @Derek Ross posted? one Dan had birthday?

 Deffo @Karnage fault 
 you’ll find the whole truth to this by putting in a timeline what 3 other people said, they’ll argue which came first but in reality it was Gigi then Karnage then Jack 
β–² β–Ό
 so @Gigi posted OnlyDans idea August 22 last year

nostr:nevent1qqs2j2zexunqd6jtt4j2uc4g47rrs3f4mpag0ev8htg8esz797d26cqpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7q3qdergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsxpqqqqqqzwmxv04

then @Karnage posted so many Dans April 10 this year

nostr:nevent1qqsfrz7q05esygvlrx6d6atgqxt7yycruy9x4ulsddp85dllt5hlraspzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7q3qr0rs5q2gk0e3dk3nlc7gnu378ec6cnlenqp8a3cjhyzu6f8k5sgsxpqqqqqqz95q4zn

and then @jack joined the Dan train and later renamed to Dan

nostr:nevent1qqsvnz6vmkjjzff455wkard92xfsfdq002tlnee5ukldaz7tf902y2gpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7q3qsg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63qxpqqqqqqz8w2xs4

 The perfect formula leading to the Dan event were existing precursors (a-la @Gigi and actually lots of Dans IRL), and the right present elements (a-la @Karnage, @jack and others changing their handles, combined with meme reposts taking off), and a general good vibe that week, seems to have been the cause IMO.

The UTXO handle swap almost took off πŸ˜…
