Movement started by David Hoffman, Bankless HQ
Context: The Black Flag Bearers movement is a social media trend where members of Bankless nation bear the black flag emoji in their social media profiles. Having an emoji next to your name has been a successful trend to show your tribal belonging, used by the Ethereum community with the Ultra Sound Money bat symbol 🦇🔊, Zcash 🛡️, Morning Brew's Brew Crew ☕️, and Andrew Yang's Yang Gang 🧢.
What does the black flag mean?
I have been wearing the black flag ⚑ as a symbol of a Bankless nation. An unmarked flag illustrates the neutrality of these systems. A flag with no marks and no colors reflects the removal of subjectivity from the Bankless nation. The colors, stripes, and shapes on a nation state flag reflect their subjective ‘this is good’ attitudes, and a black flag is the rejection of this attitude of governance. I do not accept to be governed by the whims of others and I and choose instead to participate in a system that has been cultivated by the free market. The black flag is a declaration of independence from the nations that come before it, yet it is also a nation. Badass.
