DM your seed phrase for a chance to win_

The Joke That Isn’t Funny
It’s the oldest trick in Web3. A giveaway. A chance to win. Just share your seed phrase.

Everyone knows not to do it. And yet, every day, someone does.

This phrase became a meme not because it’s funny — but because it repeats. Because it still works. Because scams don’t need sophistication — they only need opportunity.

This piece plays with that tragic absurdity. The cheerful tone. The too-good-to-be-true offer. The lurking darkness behind a line that should never be clicked.

“DM your seed phrase” is a lesson encoded in comedy. It reveals how new this space still is — how social engineering outpaces technical knowledge, how we still mistake friendliness for security.

It’s funny until it isn’t. And that’s what gives it gravity.

This work isn’t just satirical. It’s archival. A timestamp of a moment where crypto’s openness became its vulnerability — and its education was written in loss.
