TL;DR

· MOG Coin is a popular meme coin on the Ethereum and Base chains, widely favored for promoting a cultural shift known as mog/acc, which combines mogging and accelerationism.

· Influential figures like Elon Musk and Garry Tan have embraced the mog/acc trend, significantly increasing the value of MOG Coin.

· mog/acc is evolving into an internet-native philosophy that focuses on the "winner" language of technological advancement and sharing. Dogecoin takes a backseat. The new meme coins sweeping the core circle of tech Twitter are not just for entertainment; they are about a way of thinking.

MOG Coin is a popular token available on the Ethereum and Base chains, attempting to bring about a cultural shift through "mog/acc"—a combination of mogging (slang for being better, stronger, and faster) and accelerationism (pushing for technological change at all costs). Tech optimists quickly donned Pit Vipers—a cool sunglasses brand—as their X account avatars, a move that expanded the influence of the mog token beyond the crypto community.

Influential X accounts, from Y Combinator founder Garry Tan to X owner Elon Musk, have joined the mog/acc trend by changing their avatars to characters wearing Pit Vipers. The price of MOG has risen more than 11% over the past week, with an increase of over 130% in the last 30 days. Companies in the Solana ecosystem, such as Raydium and Jupiter, have also jumped on the bandwagon by changing their online avatars to cats or mascots wearing Pit Vipers and labeling them "mog/acc."

A community member even developed a mog/acc bot that can automatically convert any avatar into the aesthetic style pursued by mog/acc believers, and the account quickly went viral just a few hours after its launch early Wednesday morning.

But what exactly is mog/acc? Believers have very specific views on this.

"MOG acceleration is the expansion of MOG memeology into the realm of technological advancement," @Virotechnics, a meme coin thought leader, told CoinDesk in a Telegram message. "It's about winning, competing and excelling in everything." "Accelerationism is a philosophy of technological progress that emphasizes accelerating its pace and ensuring that progress is achieved at all costs. MOG/ACC is a mix of both; It's a perfect combination – two ideas complement each other, and memetics helps spread that philosophy," he added. Accelerationism, or "ACC" in online slang, is the idea that humanity should accelerate technological progress at all costs. Whether it's artificial intelligence, cryptocurrency, biotech, or automation, it's all about accelerating the pace, breaking the mold, and driving the future.

This has given rise to effective accelerationism (e/acc), a latest branch that attempts to make accelerationism feasible rather than just a meme. Supporters of this way of thinking include early cryptocurrency investor Balaji Srinivasan.

In 2023, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin proposed his own version of e/acc — d/acc, which stands for Defensive Accelerationism, calling for the construction of technology to promote progress while actively avoiding paths filled with greed or net negativity.

As a result, MOG/ACC is not just a ride on existing accelerationist trends. It is evolving into a unique, internet-native philosophy. E/ACC rationalizes the future, D/ACC moralizes it, and MOG/ACC brings it to life through memes. Adherents move away from lengthy thought articles in favor of cool avatars and shared "winner" language. It remains to be seen if MOGs can move beyond tokens or vibes. But now, it has become a complete manifestation of identity.
