Red Tail Hawk (@RedTailHawk1923)
Red Tail Hawk argues from etymology (cult, cultivate, culture) that Bitcoin has become a distinct culture, and catalogs its markers: internet lingo, coinages and holidays. He lists often-unmarked Bitcoin holidays such as Hal Finney's birthday, First Transaction Day, Satoshi's Last Message, Silk Road Day, HODL Day, Bitcoin Independence Day and Pizza Day, alongside memes like Infinite Pizza Lady and the Skull of Satoshi. A long survey covers bitcoin magazines, visual artists and musicians, naming Stackchain as a relative newcomer pending Log 4. He closes by weighing four value-storing cultures (fiat-ignorant, fiat-educated, crypto and Bitcoin) and arguing only Bitcoin culture makes sense, citing Venezuela's 2018 hyperinflation.
