21 sats \ 3 replies \ @anon 12h \ on: Write a short story with 12 words bitcoin
I’ve been trying to think of a way to pass down 12 words through oral tradition (a song or story) in such a way that it can survive intact for a couple hundred years. The 12 words would be the key to a couple utxos that are unable to be spent until those couple hundred years have passed.
Trouble would be to have enough redundancy built in so that it can survive generations of the “telephone game” but also not be too obvious or a computer will grab those utxos as soon as they are spendable. Might have to figure out a way to pass down a passphrase on metal that would be the final key to unlocking it.
hahaha who knows, maybe @carlosfandango's daily haiku contain the words to a wallet ?

I don’t know. Hidden in plain sight…. I have played around with book ciphers and even had a look at a couple of your articles where you have hidden them. It’s not a huge number of variations in a haiku or short phrase and assuming you could easily find the 12-words then it’s just a case of trying all the permutations.
I think that’s 1,352,078 variants and that doesn’t feel like enough 10-years hence.
