$BTC $ETH American young people rely on a video to ignite the nation, while teaching you new ways to play in the crypto world!

A 23-year-old investigative journalist Nick Shirley recently went viral across the United States with a video exposing government welfare fraud, racking up billions of views. But that’s not all; he then launched his personal token $thenickshirley on the Base chain, with a market cap peaking at $9 million, earning over $40,000 in royalties. Billionaire Andrew Tate has publicly stated he wants to donate to him.

This is definitely not just a social media influencer story. My point is that it has provided a new example for the stagnant crypto world, pointing to an entirely new path. With Bitcoin and Ethereum fluctuating narrowly and market sentiment being “extremely fearful,” everyone is unsure what to trade. At this moment, an experiment in the “on-chain attention economy” that can convert societal emotions across the U.S. into real money is precisely the most compelling story, isn’t it? The success of $thenickshirley and the meme hype surrounding the misspelling of “learing” both indicate that the engine for the next market wave may no longer be technology, but rather the direct monetization of “social consensus” and “narratives.”

What does this mean for you? What should you do?

Understand the trend: Stop just staring at candlestick charts. Pay attention to what real social sentiments are sweeping through social media. The next breakout point may be hidden in some trending news.

Beware of “riding the wave”: There will definitely be a bunch of imitators and meme coins looking to ride Nick Shirley's popularity.

Before jumping in, ask yourself: Are you optimistic about his ongoing influence, or do you just want to make a quick profit and run? The latter is likely to end up as cannon fodder.

Focus on new ways to play: The core platforms this time are Base chain and Zora, with Coinbase founder Brian Armstrong personally engaging.

This shows that major institutions are also actively laying out the ecosystem of “creators + on-chain monetization.” In the future, more celebrities and influencers may link directly with fans and funding in this way.

In a nutshell, the old ways of playing are no longer effective, and new models are being validated. Want to know which potential “social emotion explosion point” track or specific project I will focus on next?
