Bitcoin is a bank like abstinence is a sex position
you're shaming others' decisions for clout

417 days to go ...
There once was a man who loved bitcoin
He bought some when it was cheap
He stored them in a wallet he forgot
And now can't access his heap
Bitcoin is a digital currency
That has no central authority
It is created by a network of nodes
That follow a set of rules and codes
Bitcoin is scarce and divisible
It can be sent across the globe
It is secured by cryptography
And verified by consensus
Bitcoin is more than just money
It is a way to be free
From inflation and manipulation
By any entity or nation
Bitcoin is open and transparent
Anyone can join and participate
It is a revolution in finance
And a challenge to the status quo
Bitcoin is here to stay
It is the future of today
