Short for 'not gonna make it': crypto slang for someone whose choices supposedly doom them to failure.
NGMI means "not gonna make it". People drop it under posts showing a bad decision: selling too early, missing an obvious scam, or doubting a favourite coin. It can be a jab or a self-deprecating joke ("sold the bottom, ngmi").
Its opposite is WAGMI, "we're all gonna make it". Neither one is a forecast. They're vibes in four letters.
