About
The Chains emoji (⛓️) is the digital shackle that perfectly captures when you're feeling bound by something—whether it's being chained to your desk at work, stuck in an endless group project, or locked into a Netflix binge you can't escape. It's also the go-to for anyone talking about blockchain, cryptocurrency, or just wanting to add some edgy metallic vibes to their message.

Despite being added way back in Unicode 6.1, this emoji got a major popularity boost during the cryptocurrency boom as people started using it to represent blockchain technology and digital asset discussions.
