HOKALI

The learning version of "stoke" or "aloha" – the combination of relief, success, and fist-pumping joy you feel when you finally remember that idea that was on the tip of your tongue, or answer a tough question, or solve a challenging problem, or master a new skill.

cryptoqueue 

The line to buy cryptocurrency. No matter where you stand, people in front of you look over their shoulders and ask if you want to take their place because they're not ready to decide yet. People behind you ask what you think. Most people don't know or care about the cryptoqueue.

$2500 into Blockfi? Wow, dude, you're really moving up in the cryptoqueue.
