Spend a day on crypto Twitter and someone will end a post with WAGMI. It sounds like a sneeze, but it’s actually a pep talk.
What Does WAGMI Mean?
WAGMI stands for “We’re All Gonna Make It.” It’s an upbeat rallying cry, a way of saying “hang in there, we’ll get through this together.”
Its gloomy twin is NGMI, “Not Gonna Make It,” used to tease someone’s bad decision.
Where Did the Term Come From?
WAGMI became hugely popular during the 2021 NFT boom, when communities used it to cheer each other on. It grew out of fitness and internet culture, where “we’re all gonna make it” was already a motivational phrase.
