Learning from 'Wall Street's oddest duck.' Opinion for The Node newsletter by danielgkuhn
In short, there’s a conflict between whether crypto is this world-historical vehicle for techno-economico change across industries – – and crypto’s position as a marginal asset class. We still don’t know where it’ll all land. But one thing is sure, crypto is thriving on the fringe.It’s not a stretch of the imagination to say that people, especially those who spend a lot of time online, gravitate towards group identification. We all like to signal our relationship to certain causes or identities.
“Sigma male” is one of the newer ways for people to self-identify. It’s a term that supposedly, somewhat-ironically, describes people that “operate outside of social systems and hierarchies,” according to. They’re the lone wolves of the world.

His life’s desire, reportedly, is to own the New York Jets U.S. professional football team.
The “self-made” soprano with a penchant for cursing represents a real trend of people that “rise and grind,” or put all of their energy into work.
