The most potent spiritual successor I’ve seen is the whole GameStop thing: an attempt to exploit a recursively over-leveraged predatory derivative scheme. Over-leveraged derivatives are the characteristic underpinning of most of the Wall Street fuckery that the Occupy movement was fighting.
I don’t have any particular love for the company, but it’s impossible to overlook the similarity. If I was going to hit Wall Street where it hurts, I’d pile onto an exploit like that. The more people on board, the better.
