WAGMI
WAGMI is crypto slang for "we're all gonna make it", an optimistic phrase used on social media to signal shared confidence that a community will succeed.
WAGMI stands for "we're all gonna make it". It spread on crypto Twitter and Discord servers during the 2021 bull market, especially in NFT communities, where it was posted as a greeting, a rallying cry or a reply to good news. It expresses solidarity: the idea that holders of a coin or members of a project will profit together if they stay the course.
The phrase often appears alongside other community slang such as GM (good morning), HODL and diamond hands, and its opposite is NGMI, "not gonna make it". Project accounts and influencers use it to build a sense of belonging, and it tends to appear most in rising markets, so its frequency on social media is sometimes read as a rough sign of sentiment.
WAGMI is a mood, not a forecast. In a market where many tokens lose most of their value, collective optimism can discourage people from questioning a project or taking profits, so it is wise to separate community spirit from financial decisions.
Example
After a new NFT collection sells out in minutes, its Discord fills with members posting "WAGMI", even though most of them have no idea where the price will go next.
