So grab your reading glasses and your investment portfolio bro, the bestseller list is where you want to be now. Duuude... What the. (sigh)
The Booker Prize is a prestigious annual award for the best original novel written in English and published in the UK or Ireland.
Debut authors on the Booker Prize longlist are being compared to crypto startups due to their potential for rapid financial gain, similar to speculative investments like cryptocurrencies.
Marlon James and Douglas Stuart are notable authors whose names have gained significant traction on social media, paralleling the hype around emerging crypto projects before their peak value.
Being 'bullish' means having a positive outlook and expecting an increase in value or popularity of these books as they become bestsellers, akin to investing in promising startups or cryptocurrencies.
DOOOD What The?! satirizes the trend by humorously suggesting that reading and investing in literary works are now intertwined, with debut authors becoming speculative financial assets.
