Hopium
Hope with the volume turned up: crypto slang for optimism running ahead of the evidence.
PLAIN-ENGLISH DEFINITION
In more detail
Hopium mixes hope with opium as a joke about needing another dose of good news. In crypto chat, it can mean an unlikely price prediction or a hopeful reading of a project update. People use it about themselves as well as others; the tone is often playful rather than a serious accusation.
