To the Moon
An expression of hope or hype that a coin's price is about to rise dramatically.
"To the moon" is the rallying cry of a rising market, usually paired with a rocket emoji. "Mooning" means a coin is shooting up; "wen moon" is the impatient question asking when the gains arrive.
It's pure hype language, and it tells you nothing about value. The phrase tends to peak right alongside FOMO, near the top of a cycle. When a community talks only about the moon, it has usually stopped talking about the product.
