Introducing Happy Rot

Happy Rot ($ROT) is a fungus-fueled fever dream slithering straight out of Matt Furie's Cortex Vortex—his most unhinged and cosmic brainspill to date. Leaked like spore clouds through back-alley links and divine DMs, the first glimpses of Happy Rot oozed out via Furie's official gallery drop and a smoke-ringed Instagram shout from his publisher beuys_on_sale.

Rot isn't happy in the way you think—he's ecstatically decaying, a blissed-out blob with dozens of eyeballs that don't blink, just stare into the veiny unknown. No one knows his mission. Maybe he's a god. Maybe a trash prophet. Maybe he's just vibing. Flowers wilt in his footsteps, but smile while doing it. The air around him hums like an old VHS left on pause.

Even his name came in weird—"Happy Rot" was confirmed via the uploaded image's metadata and the file title itself, quietly embedded in the gallery web link like a rotting breadcrumb trail for the tuned-in few. Whatever he is, he's already here. And he's multiplying. Spores = tokens. Muck = market cap. The cult has begun.
