Lunarpunk is a subgenre of solarpunk with a darker aesthetic. It portrays the nightlife, spirituality, and more introspective side of solarpunk utopias. It can be defined as "Witchy Solarpunk." Aesthetically, lunarpunk usually is presented with pinks, purples, blues, black, and silver with an almost omnipresence of bioluminescent plants and especially mushrooms

Despite a seeming abundance of articles like this which have presented Lunarpunk as a concept that connects with cryptocurrency, the future of crypto as it stands has no place in a Lunarpunk future as I can see it. Lunarpunk is a an extension of Solarpunk and and and the problematic energy consumption is in conflict with solarpunk ethics and as it works against the future Solarpunks hope to create. You can see the problematic places crypto can lead in posts like this . These concepts have been further discussed by various instance members, mods, and admins who have seem to come to a consensus that crypto isn't solarpunk . There was even once consideration of defederating from an instance whose main topic was crypto . While Lunarpunk is a younger subgenere / movement still being defined here, it seems as it must adhere to the ethics of Solarpunk and this instance by definition and crypto seems at odds with articles and description I posted in the sidebar or pinned to the top.
