Recently, I found something interesting: foreigners say “gm” every day. At first, I thought it was just a “Good morning” greeting, but later I realized that in the crypto world, “gm” has another layer of meaning. If you type “gm” using a Chinese input method, the first thing that pops up is “buy,” so these people are basically using a homophone to remind everyone to buy, buy, buy. That said, if you want the full interpretation of what “gm” means, you really have to look at two levels: one is the literal early-morning greeting, and the other is this metaphorical buy-in hint—there’s something to it.

That said, lots of people are talking about the next bull market. Every time I see “gm,” I can’t help thinking: is it really just a greeting, or is it hinting that you should get on board? It feels like the dual meaning of “gm” itself reflects a culture in the crypto community—both laid-back and serious. Some people say that if you don’t go all-in now, you’ll regret it later, but I think even more important is understanding market cycles. What do you think—does “gm” mean nothing to you but just good morning, or have you also seen that buy-in insinuation?
