The term “goblin mode,” initially used on Twitter in 2009, gained popularity in 2022.
Goblin mode, metaverse, and the hashtag IStandWith were the three finalists.
The term “goblin mode” was named by Oxford Dictionaries as their Word of the Year for 2016. A recent online poll by Oxford Dictionary asked English speakers to choose their Word of the Year, and “goblin mode” won by a landslide. Binance CEO, Changpeng Zhao (CZ), recently acknowledged Goblin Mode in a tweet on December 6th, just after this news broke.
Unrepentant self-indulgent, sluggish, slovenly, or selfish conduct, generally in a manner that contradicts societal standards or expectations, is how the Urban Dictionary describes people who are in “goblin mode.” The term “goblin mode,” initially used on Twitter in 2009, gained popularity in 2022 when people all across the globe awoke in fear from the COVID-19 pandemic-related forced lockdowns.
GOBLIN Coin Rallies
Goblin mode, metaverse, and the hashtag IStandWith were the three finalists picked by Oxford Languages lexicographers, but this is the first time the term has been decided by public voting. What is remarkable though is the fact that metaverse ranked second.
Furthermore, Goblin Mode, which is less well-known outside of the online community, won with almost 93% of the more than 340,000 votes cast.
Moreover, GOBLIN Coin, an NFT-based cryptocurrency that operates on Binance Smart Chain, jumped by 118% just 35 minutes after the tweet. CoinMarketCap reports that the current Goblin price is $1.12e-9 USD, with a 24-hour trading volume of $4,235.62 USD.
Goblin price rose 2.18 percent in the last day. Goblin Coin is especially useful since it allows game producers to pre-sell unique in-game products using the NFT format and hence generate revenue.
