TikTok changed the game—teens are now programming content FOR teens, with zero adult oversight (unlike YouTube or IG where boomers lurk).
This is the first time a generation's culture is being shaped entirely by their peers, not adults.
Millennials and older? We consumed content made BY adults. Gen Z/Alpha? They're building their own reality in real-time.
Why this matters for crypto:
- Youth culture = trend formation = narrative shifts
- Decentralized content creation mirrors decentralized finance
- Memecoins, NFT drops, and viral alpha calls spread faster in peer-to-peer ecosystems
If you're not watching how Gen Z moves, you're already behind on the next cycle's narratives.
