The satirical scripture

The Lord’s ₿rayer

Our Satoshi, who art in the mempool,
Hallowed be thy hash.
Thy node come,
Thy will be done,
On every block, across the global network.

Give us this day our daily block
And grant us the wisdom of one satoshi.

As we share the grace from every mined reward,
May our transactions be confirmed in peace.

Forgive us our FUDs and panic sells,
As we forgive those who pump and dump against us.

Lead us not into rug pulls and phishing,
And deliver us from altcoins like Luna.

For thine is the chain,
The hash, and the immutable glory,
Forever decentralized, verifiable, and unstoppable.

₿men.

The Apostles’ ₿reed

I believe in Satoshi Nakamoto,
The almighty Creator of Code and Chaos.

I believe in Bitcoin, His only-born protocol,
Peer-to-peer conceived,
Misunderstood by fiat and mocked in the 2017 bubble.

It seemed dead, but halved and rose again in 2020,
Now enthroned as digital gold over all the Earth.

I believe He shall come again,
To judge the central banks and the fiat-bound.

I believe in the purity of open source,
The communion of nodes,
The confirmation of transactions,
The security of private keys,
And eternal self-custody of wealth.

₿men.

The 10 Commandments of ₿itcoin

Thou shalt have no other coins before Me.

Thou shalt not store thy seed in the cloud.

Thou shalt not bear false pumps.

Honor thy parents' wallets, and back them up.

Thou shalt not treat exchanges as wallets.

Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s ROI.

Remember the HODL day and keep it sacred.

Thou shalt not scam nor steal wallets.

Create memes unto holiness.

Thou shalt never take leverage lightly.

A ₿etter From the Future (To My Past Self)

Dear Me from 2017,

Back then, you knew not ₿itcoin.
Satoshi waited,
But you passed Him by.

Yet regret not.
For faith is not about timing, but direction.

Even now,
You hold your private key.
You can still choose your chain, your creed.

₿itcoin is still alive.
Satoshi has not left.

He signed nothing,
Yet every block still holds a seat for you.

With love,
From your future self.

P.S. Read the whitepaper first.
