People are underestimating what is happening with Jean Phil.
Remember Chill Guy? One drawing of a dog in a grey sweater and jeans. Nobody owned it, everybody used it. Within weeks it was on every timeline and in every group chat. It did not blow up because of one account. It blew up because thousands of people made it their own. Mindshare is not built by announcements. It is built by participation.
Now look at what is happening around Jean Phil.
Open your For You page. The same guy shows up in video after video, in every format, from every angle. People who have nothing to do with crypto are seeing him. For me, the reach is already above what Chill Guy had. Since he went viral two weeks ago, my timeline is Jean Phil, or characters built on his world. Every character that came after him points back to the same story. That is not fragmentation. It is one narrative with many faces, and each face pushes the others.
It has already left crypto. German, US and French media have reported on it. And in Germany it feels like he arrived yesterday, which means most people have not even seen it yet.
One thing I keep hearing: people want a video from him every single day. I understand the feeling, but it would be the wrong move. The moment he posts daily, every post becomes content, and content gets scrolled past. He posts rarely, so when he does, it lands. Scarcity is part of the magic.
Because this was never about one account. Jean is the person behind it, the spark. But what makes it huge is everything the community builds around him: the memes, the characters, the edits, the jokes only we get. Nobody can fake that, and nobody can post their way into it.
My opinion: this is not priced in. Most people have not understood what they are looking at yet. Some will see it soon, and then everyone will.
Memes do not win because they are loud. They win when a crowd decides to play together. We are playing together right now.
Pay attention.

This is my last post about $JubJub cause then I will go silent about crypto for a while. I know I don't have enough followers for this to be interestint enough but I need to vent the lore so that I do not forget it.
So, to go back to $JubJub, I already posted the first part of the lore in a reply to $Zcash.
To specify it a bit more, from the original poem:
“You boil it in sawdust, you salt it in glue, you condense it with locusts and tape. Still keeping one principal object in view— To preserve its symmetrical shape.”
we go to the cryptographic metaphor, where the poem serves as an allegorical commentary on the arduous mathematical crafting required to build an embedded curve for zk-SNARKs.
"Boil it in sawdust... salt it in glue... condense it with locusts and tape": Constructing a pairing-friendly SNARK system requires a primary curve (BLS12-381) and an embedded curve whose base field equals the scalar field of the first. Satisfying every cryptographic security requirement (large prime-order subgroup, embedding degree, resistance to small-subgroup attacks, efficient coordinate arithmetic) feels like stitching together bizarre, incompatible ingredients.
"Still keeping one principal object in view—To preserve its symmetrical shape": Twisted Edwards curves provide an addition law that is complete (meaning no edge cases for the identity element or point doubling) when a is square and d is nonsquare. This mathematical symmetry ensures uniform circuit constraints without branching logic, guaranteeing that exceptional points do not break circuit proofs.
$Jubjub forms the computational backbone of the Sapling shielded pool.
In earlier versions of Zcash (Sprout), proof generation required minutes and gigabytes of RAM because operations like SHA-256 had to be simulated bit-by-bit inside SNARK circuits. $JubJub was designed to compute hashes, commitments, and signatures natively as field multiplications inside the BLS12-381 scalar field.
The Private Key Space (Scalar Field): Every private spending key (ask), proof authorizing key (nsk), signature randomizer (\alpha), and commitment trapdoor (rcm, rcv) in Sapling is an integer modulo this exact prime number (FrJ). When you perform scalar multiplication [k]P on the curve, the scalar k wraps around at rJ.
@calebsol $TROLL just got a coinbase listing as their FIRST tier 1 listing. They also own IP rights. You’ll literally be buying Pepe and DOGE before they went viral. TROLL will eventually flip both.
Don’t underestimate meme coins like $URANUS especially in this space coins like this can jump to 100m+ quicker than you think.. we are currently in price discovery.
