In today's edition, we highlight a (very) harsh tweet that captures perfectly the essence of crypto Twitter, along with the latest banger from Riot Games Music: Paranoia by Heartsteel.

1 tweet/storm

Heart, known for their prolific shitposting, shared a harsh tweet earlier that I wholeheartedly agree with.

Throughout this bear market, and amidst the extreme highs and lows of human behavior, many Crypto Twitter users have glaringly displayed a lack of empathy and social awareness. I've often found myself wondering if certain tweets are just for engagement bait or if some people are genuinely this broken and dysfunctional.

Part of the negative perception of crypto IRL stems from rugs, pure scams, more than questionable use cases, and the wrong individuals profiting, not to mention memeing about things that should be left alone at certain times.

Let's hope that in the future, we produce, and send representatives.

Riot Games has unveiled "Paranoia" by their latest virtual K-pop group, "Heartsteel".

This virtual group features Kayn, Ezreal, Sett, Yone (ofc he had to be in the group since Yasuo is in another 😏), K’Sante, and Aphelios, but behind the scenes, the real-life talent includes BAEKHYUN, tobi lou, ØZI, and Cal Scruby.
While I'm far from being a KPop stan, the track is pretty damn catchy and the artistic direction slaps.
With the Worlds being hosted in South Korea and Gen G's victory (ok that's a stretch, and a tiny bit of wishful thinking), the timing couldn't be better.

GGs to Riot Games, the participating artists, and SAUVAGE.TV for this banger.
