Crypto built a system where someone always becomes exit liquidity.
But the strongest systems in nature are built on cooperation.
There is something ancient in the eyes of a puppy.
Something older than markets. Older than technology. Older even than the systems we now call finance.
Look into the face of a bulldog puppy or the wide curious eyes of an infant and you see something almost impossible to fake in the modern world.
Trust.
Not conditional trust. Not transactional trust. Not the brittle trust negotiated between counterparties in a trade.
Just pure trust.
The kind of trust that existed before wolves learned to bare their teeth at one another over scraps.
The kind of trust that eventually built civilization.
And it raises a strange question in the era of Crypto Twitter.
How did a technology born from cooperation become so dominated by extraction?
Crypto Twitter was once a frontier of builders.
In the early days of Bitcoin and Ethereum, the dominant tone was curiosity. People were experimenting together with a strange new economic machine. Developers, traders, researchers, and anonymous internet personalities were all attempting to understand a system that had never existed before.
But somewhere along the way, something shifted.
The culture hardened.
