Backrooms was born from one 4chan post.
One anonymous imageboard idea became a full-blown internet mythology, YouTube phenomenon, and eventually an A24 film.
That’s the same pipeline
$neet is tapping into.
NEET culture also came from the deepest parts of the internet. 4chan, anime boards, forums, unemployed lore, anti-work nihilism, and post-job-market reality all merged into one global archetype.
The Backrooms proved that weird internet-native mythology can escape the screen and become mainstream IP.
$neet is the same kind of thing, but financialized.
A meme, a character, a culture, a thesis, and a market all wrapped into one ticker.
Bullish on internet folklore becoming assets.
