    Gen Z is lazy and will die really quickly, along with social media digital economy and the trendy movements they popularised in this post millenial era.

    This has got to be a joke, right? The rise of cryptocurreny was 100 percent a millenial thing. The ‘trendy movements’ and influencer culture also came from millenials. Gen Z was just forced to grow up in it. Saying a whole generation will die very quickly is pretty strange and spiteful of you. You sound like an old man yelling at kids for doing kid things.

      Cryptocurrency, in the pessimistic sense you mean, is not a generation thing, but a capitalist thing born out of those extremist investors and stock market “gurus”. Originally, crypto was made as an alternative way of transactions to SWIFT and similar systems that surveil dissidents and activists, only for the “system” capitalists to kill its reputation.

      My observation was not spiteful, but was meant to be a consequence of Gen Z avoiding putting effort (learning how to drive, one example), blindly consuming instead of creating, doomscrolling, garbage physical health, not touching grass, not socialising IRL and so on. All that is just going to lead to a quicker death.
