Oops. I did it Again.

I really couldn’t help myself. I’ve been been obsessed with the concept financial “raccoons”. Anywhere there’s a buck to be made, they show up. Call it what you will; The Flippening, The Great Reshuffle, even The Golden Age — what better tribute to the times we find ourselves in than a Crypto Raccoon NFT?

I first learned the term from Ben Hunt on Howard Lindzon’s Panic with Friends podcast. Ben has a specific definition for defi charlatans: raccoons. They’re the enemy. They’re not like foxes or coyotes. They steal and kill just for the sheer sport of it. It’s just what they are. Forget opposable thumbs and a cute little face; they symbolize wanton criminality in the animal kingdom. It’s a good reference point for the hucksters, con men, and sometimes outright criminals who infest our financial markets.

As for the listing price? If you have to ask, you probably can’t afford it.
