Future's FactionFuture's Faction

They wake up in two thousand eight
Code-pushing heroes armed by fate
Each line a bomb, aimed at the state
Tired of explaining, near irate

I don't have time to try to convince you...

Five years on, now it's oh-thirteen,
World learning blockchain, charts all green
My node is a non-stop machine
Mining profits become routine

I don't have time to try to convince you...

Shitcoins pop up in the next boom
Up and down, yes but tons of room
Pundits and news spout fud and doom
They stay poor, as the lambos zoom

I don't have time to try to convince you...

Now fifty-kay, new legislation
People screaming "fix the nation"
Across each civilization
Fun game theory situation

I don't have time to try to convince you...

Since we can see all the action
Behind each, any transaction
Trust is climbing, satisfaction
We are now the future's faction

damn, nice rhymes here !

For satoshi I sing,
I raise the present on the past,
(As some perennial tree out of its roots, the present on the past,)
With time and space I him dilate and fuse the immortal laws,
To make himself by them the law unto himself

reply

There once was a coin called Bit
Its code used to live in Git
It replaced all the banks banks
And gave Peter Shiff angst
Until Saylor bought all of it

reply

Markets will rise.
Markets will fall.
Stay strong and stack through it all.

reply

What are the roots that clutch, what branches grow
Out of this fiat rubbish? Son of man,
You cannot say, or guess, for you know only
A heap of broken economies, where the sun beats,
And the central bank money tree gives no shelter, the state no relief,
And the USD no inflation certainty. Only
There is shadow under this orange rock,
(Come in under the shadow of this orange rock),
And I will show you something different from either
Debt-based monies striding behind you
Or surveillance CBDCs rising to meet you;
I will show you joy in a handful of sats.

(Rework of an excerpt from The Waste Land)

If you buy some BTC
Make sure is not KYC
Failure to do this
Will affect your privacy

Buy from ATMs
Buy from P2Ps
Yes it's more expensive
Freedom has a fee

What sphinx of hash trees and blocks bashed open its skull and unleashed its ideas and models?

Immutable ledgers! Uncountable transactions! Lost fiat and unowned dollars! Men screaming on telegram! Suburban shitcoiners sobbing in armies! Old men falling to scams!

Bitcoin whose mind is churning turbines! Bitcoin whose power runs money! Bitcoin whose mouth is one millions tweets! Bitcoin whose soul is electricity without banks! Bitcoin whose fate is against state armies and knowing customers! Bitcoin whose ASICs hum and whir in the winter!

Bitcoin in whom we are a bank without a body! Bitcoin who frightens governments out of natural ecstasy! Bitcoin who I abandon! Wake up in Bitcoin, light streaming out of the sky!

They broke their backs lifting Bitcoin to Heaven! BIPs, nodes, blockversions and no-ops! Lifting the brain to Heaven which exists and is everywhere about us! Forks, ticks, futures, and taproots!

Visions! Omens! Dreams! Promises! Boatloads of wealth, down on the rocks of time.

Some pills are red
Some pills are blue
But the orange pill
Will certainly find you

Yo

Bitcoin is the asset
There’s no way you gonna crash it
Bankers may try
China may try
Schiff will just cry
And cry
Fools! The corn will always rule!

Not poetry but some thoughts.

The Bitcoin Army

What people do for Bitcoin & Freedom:
Cypherpunks write code...
Developers create apps...
Memetards make fun memes...
Plebs run BTC/LN nodes...
Saylors & Bukeles BTFDs...
Podcasters promote BTC...
Bitcoiners educate nocoiners...

We are all in this together, for the good and the future of humanity.
Each one is a "weapon", the silence weapon, the weapon that is not violent but is powerful.
WE WILL NEVER GIVE UP!
BITCOIN OR DEATH!

soft money grows on a tree
hard money will rise
what the world desperately needs
will attract many eyes

eu não sei falar inglês, muito menos escrever
o bitcoin abriu bastante minha mente
hoje sou um rapaz menos inconsequente
tentei fazer algumas rimas
mas se eu traduzir para inglês nada combina
de qualquer forma não custa nada tentar
foi assim que comecei a empilhar.

You always felt it, there was something wrong/
Couldn't shake it, huming along near your eardrum/
Redrum, murder for the money/
Morphine, honey, you need a cure for pain/
This whole situation is making you insane-in the brain/
There is no solution, it seems/
But you took an orange pill in your dreams/
And through that lense, everything made sense/

"Bitcoin fixes this," the angels sung/
The rising sun, shining all along...

reply

Dollars make you poor:
they flow towards the richest.
Bitcoin fixes it.

-The BTC haiku. :-D

reply

Roses are red, violets are blue. I hope you stack stats, or the inflation comes for you!

reply

Bitcoin.

not a poem, but some lyrics to a song. dont tip not even my song lmao.
but i always see these groups of lyrics that scream to me bitcoin.

'
We're biding time as we wait for the signal
Sharpening blades while we wait out the storm
These cold nights are almost unbearable
But purpose keeps us warm
Pledge allegiance while crossing our fingers
A bark with no bite, no teeth, just a roar
You're not a thorn in our side, you're a splinter
We are ready, but we're bored
Just holding our place in line
And everything moves too slow now
Breaking away in time

They have the power
But we have the numbers now
It's all just a constant illusion of control
They break us like horses
How long will we drag their plow?
What will continue to be, is WHAT WE ALLOW

The thing about the #Bitcoin Rabbit Hole is it truly just gets deeper & broader the further down it you fall… wish I had a photographic memory for all these things I’ve been reading, but no, all I have are dyslexia & an affinity for words misleading
