Why 'Unstable' Hits Especially Hard in Today's World
If you’re just looking for assets that hedge against inflation or collapse, there’s Bitcoin.
There’s gold. There’s all the usual suspects.
So why even consider something like Unstable Coin?
What’s the argument?
This isn’t investment advice or anything like that, but I’m just trying to think out loud here, about how value forms, and why something like this might matter in today’s world.
1. In the Age of AI, Being Unstable Is What Makes Us Human
There’s this video I saw from Jojo (creator of Jojo ASMR).
He's talking about AI-generated ASMR -- how the sounds are perfect, the visuals flawless, the algorithm gives you everything you think you want.
And then he just asks:
So what’s left for humans?
That question hasn’t left me.
Because AI can now say all the right things.
It can act calm. Rational. Reassuring.
But it can’t feel.
It can’t spiral at 3am.
It can’t contradict itself, break down, recover, love, grieve, meme.
We can.
And in that light being unstable isn’t a flaw.
It’s a fingerprint.
Most of us aren’t stable. We’re just pretending.
Especially in crypto.
We’re building things, blowing up emotionally, bouncing between meaning and meme in the same hour.
So when unstable shows up and says:
“Hey. You’re a little fucked up. Me too.”
It doesn’t feel like a joke.
It feels like relief.
2. The World’s Selling “Stable”; But We’re Not Buying It Anymore
Everywhere you look right now: stablecoin, stable protocol, stable yield, stable vibe.
Stable is the performance.
Everyone’s chasing the same aesthetic: safe, repeatable, institution-friendly.
But the more you repeat a word like “stable,” the more obvious it becomes that none of this actually is. (Look into it!)
And at some point, you just crave the opposite.
Something honest. Something that admits what we all feel.
Unstable doesn’t fight the trend -- it flips it.
It cuts straight through the noise by saying the part everyone else is avoiding.
That’s why the meme works.
It’s not just funny.
It’s true.
3. The Meme Feels Like a Mirror
Unstable isn’t offering you a solution.
It’s not promising peace or prosperity.
It’s just holding up a mirror.
Markets? Unstable.
Politics? Unstable.
Minds, moods, meaning? All unstable.
Zoom in on your group chats. Your calendar. Your attention span.
Exactly.
And instead of pretending everything’s fine -- this meme just shrugs and says:
“Yeah. It’s like that.”
And somehow, that helps.
4. People Aren’t Just Laughing. They’re Relating
That’s the deeper thing.
Unstable didn’t trend because of hype.
It grew because people felt it.
And when people feel something in crypto, they build with it.
Alt-accounts. Meme remixes. Emotional shitposts.
Not to farm engagement but to speak truth.
Unstable became a language.
A flag you could fly if you weren’t feeling 100% optimized, but still wanted to belong.
5. No Suits. No Script. Just Signal.
Crypto used to be weird.
Now it’s mostly press releases dressed as whitepapers.
Even our favourite institutions and coins have been co-opted into the regime.
That makes unstable the cypherpunk renaissance we need, and need right now.
6. Even the Chain’s Unstable. Perfect.
It originated from Solana.
Of course it did.
7. It’s Funny, but That’s Not the Whole Story
Unstable lands because it works at both ends of the curve.
Left curve laughs because it’s dumb.
Right curve nods because it’s true.
Mid curve gets confused, scrolls on.
The best memes don’t just spread.
They stay.
And Unstable’s on the way to becoming Lindy because people are tired of pretending.
They want something that speaks to how things actually feel -- not how they’re supposed to look.
So, Unstable doesn’t try to fix you.
Or calm you. Or perform stability for you.
It just says:
“I’m unstable.”
“You too?”
“Cool. Let’s build anyway.”
And in a world obsessed with polish, control, and AI-generated content…
Something that still feels raw, human, and honest?
That might be the only good thing left.
