pleb
Humble Bitcoin rank-and-file, worn as a badge.
Definitions
In Bitcoin circles, a self-deprecating term for an ordinary, non-whale holder — someone stacking sats, running a node, not flexing. Worn proudly rather than as an insult. The pleb is the salt-of-the-earth Bitcoiner, distinct from VCs, influencers, and exchange CEOs.
Older internet/gaming sense — an ordinary, low-status person; a noob. Used as a casual put-down, often jokingly between friends. Predates the Bitcoin reclamation by decades.
