A diagram of vice and consequence for the digital age.

Apes

Level I: Apes

Those who chase every shill and buy every pump without thought.

  • Condemned to whiplash — swinging candle to candle, never at rest.
  • Hop from coin to coin; conviction none, patience less.
  • Their sin is folly; their punishment, loss.
Paper Hands

Level II: Paper Hands

Those who sell at every dip, fearing shadows more than truth.

  • Forever watch charts rise after they exit, gnashing teeth.
  • Miss a fortune; learn nothing.
  • Their sin is fear; their punishment, regret.
Leverage Junkies

Level III: Leverage Junkies

Those who borrow coin not their own, swearing they’re in control.

  • Condemned to endless liquidation; margin calls without end.
  • Bags turned to dust in a candle.
  • Pride at dawn, ruin by night.
Boasters of the Digital Square

Level IV: Boasters of the Digital Square

Those who flaunted gains for applause or sold their voice for tokens.

  • Posted profits to sell a course; posted both sides of the trade.
  • Took payment in secret to shill what they did not believe.
  • Condemned to wander in silence, their luck extinguished.
  • Punished to speak forever butnever be believed.
Wolves

Level V: Wolves

Architects of empty coins and hollow dreams.

  • Minted promises, never product; paid for praise, then silence.
  • The scheme that howled of community, yet sold its pack to slaughter.
  • They walk in riches yet will run into ruin.
  • For their punishment may not be public, but their spirit is weighed down forever.
Public Frauds (The Unforgivable)

Level VI: Public Frauds (The Unforgivable)

Those who rose on trust, then stole from the many.

  • Condemned to eternal chains, their names cursed forever.
  • These are the Unforgivable, for they sinned in full knowledge and intent.
  • Exchanges feasting on deposits; stablecoins without backing.
  • Masters who faked death; protocols named after black magic.
