How many community takeovers must occur until redistribution is evenly divided and held in the hands of people who see more than just short-term gain? This is the question being answered right now, I will share my insight into the current climate of Daumenfrosch because truth should reign supreme, the majority of the original team have finished selling their bags on the heads of our community. Let me be clear: this is not the team who created the token but instead the team who moderated the chat, helped build and held early positions in the token.

You didn’t find this article; it found you while you searched for something, something that might catch your eye and make you take a second look, like the glint of sunlight reflecting on a needle in a haystack. How ironic that a German thumb frog would have me writing a piece of prosaic poetry, pondering my peace of mind. For Daumen, to me, is a token I hold close to my heart; the team I worked with that abandoned the community when it needed them most does not represent the token, it does not represent Daumenfrosch. My distance from the token recently has not been because of disbelief but instead because of what i felt was betrayal. Money was more important to some people than the collective green thumb in our shared asshole.

The clarity I’ve reached and now convey is encapsulated in this meme. It’s a meme that not only Solana needed but also I needed as a degenerate. It is a meme that proved organic communities will always outweigh the paid, a coin that broke 15m from 2.3K not because of an inside trading cabal being given supply to push the price but because a community believed in something ridiculous together. Needless to say, I need to explain what it has taught me. In this article, I will delve deeper into the egregore that presently hangs cocooned, evolving unseen to the eye of degeneracy: the alchemy of DAUMENFROSCH.

First and foremost, I must admit my naivety regarding the phrase ‘community takeover’. Unknowingly, I often shrouded it in a cloud of conviction; I assumed everyone had the same morals as me and viewed it as a courageous undertaking, like knights on a quest to the Holy Land. But what if I told you everything is not what it seems? That 99% of community takeovers are but lies told to help us children sleep like Father Christmas. The rose-tinted glasses have cracked, and the truth is apparent: The facade of this decentralized community has been a hoax until now, the redistribution is finished, it requires multiple corrections and sell-offs from your fellow ‘community’. With that out in the open, let us continue with the lessons Daumenfrosch has taught me about crypto. Knowledge is power, so in sharing mine, I will feel less corrupted.

From my experience, there are three types of sellers that contribute to a community:

• Firstly, there are the people who sell and are open about their positions, sharing with the world their clarity and conviction. To me, these people are admirable; they are the type every community needs. For even if they need to leave for personal reasons they leave with respect for the people they worked with.

• Secondly, there are the people who sell and say nothing, disappearing suddenly as if they were never there. These people are commonly referred to with Indian racial slurs in crypto circles. Not the best to have in your community, but not the worst either because at least you know they are gone.

• Thirdly, there are the people who sell and then LARP (Live Action Role-Playing) as if they never sold. In my mind, these are the worst type of people, clout chasing, saving face, and pretending to still be part of the community because they believe their reputation is in jeopardy. Do you know why I am so bullish on Daumenfrosch?

Never in my whole experience of crypto have I ever encountered such a vast amount of LARPing in one concentrated area. The amount of saving face is mind-blowing. I sat and meditated on this occurrence. Why so many LARPs? Never have I experienced so many people succumbing to the pressure of a short-term payout while knowing the inevitability of what is on the horizon. The sky is always darkest right before the dawn, and at the first signs of light, the birds begin their chorus. I am a bird here to sing you songs of truth. Daumen shall be king and the FOMO will be disgusting.

They LARP because they know. They know Daumenfrosch is its own meta. It has a community of believers, market fit, It is funny to people of all ages and all walks of life, it has culture of memes unlike anything ever seen on Solana and arguably created the best organic onboarding technique being used by multiple tokens right now. They know that when Daumen inevitably does its Kobe turnaround reverse jumper and hits the buzzer to take the lead going into the second quarter, it will be a third-degree face-melting run-up that it will be unstoppable. Do you know why that makes me so bullish? Because they want to be the one who says they were part of it, even after they sold. They want to be the ones who claim, “Yes, it is me, the king!” when in actuality, they are LARPs, and Daumen is the true king.

I write this article not as a shill and not because I am angry at the majority of the team that left us to do the dishes after they ate dinner without us. I forgive you; I was hurt. I didn’t want to share this story initially because I thought it might show that our CTO team was weak and that Daumen was just another shitcoin. I was wrong. By not sharing this transparently in the beginning as it was happening, that made us weak and that is why the price reflects it. Former team members held large supply in multiple wallets that they bought up in the genesis and sold the chart without respect. They sold the chart on the most amazing community takeover I have ever seen in crypto. It was selfish and disgusting.

Daumenfrosch is a dawn to its own day, yesterday marked our sunset to the past, this article marks the first light of a new day. We have cleared out all inactive admins and moderators from our telegram and we have recruited new moderators from our active community members who still see Daumen as the thumb that stays up. We are ready now for our next leg together, this article is not meant to be a weapon; it is a marble statue, one that is carved with my thought and emotion. I am the last member of the original team that was put together in the first minutes of the CTO; my understanding is like the sands of time that shift and change, creating channels for energy to flow through, and my friends that I have made within the frosch that is Daumen evolve as well.

Please do not fear the thumb that stays up; this is my story and my experience. This is my way to let investors know that it was not Daumens fault that the price did what it done, it was community members who abused the Daumen, I have unveiled the truth and it is ugly and it is green and it is german, It is not financial advice; all of this is just the first chapter of the journey to be the greatest CTO that has existed. Daumen is the culture coin. You are early, anon.
