ETH Has Gone, ₿ Remains

ETH Has Gone, ₿ Remains ⏎ (Melody: “The Lord is Perfect”)

Satire and commentary: names and likenesses are used for parody, and nothing here is a statement of fact about real people. Sourced facts are in the sections below.

Verse 1
That night I cried at gas fees high,
Smart contracts failed and passed me by.
What remained inside my wallet—
Some broken tokens, full of regret.

Chorus
ETH has gone and ₿ remains,
On Satoshi’s rock I stand again.
Unshaken truth on chain so pure—
In ₿ I rise, I shall endure.

Verse 2
Whales played their games, rugs pulled the floor,
I danced with alts, then lost much more.
I woke up to minus ninety percent,
Even my hope had nearly been spent.

(Chorus repeat)
ETH has gone and ₿ remains,
Only the chain of truth sustains.
Each block, a silent gospel cry:
“I’ve always been here, standing by.”

Verse 3
Genesis block, the banker’s fall,
That message still outshines them all.
I still believe, with deepest trust—
“₿ never lies, and always is just.”

Final Chorus (Full Choir)
ETH has gone and ₿ remains,
Decentral love forever reigns.
In broken coins and fallen names—
Only ₿ will shine again.

Bridge (Spoken Word)
I hold my seed and sit by the node...
Though the world shakes, I wait for confirm.
Where ETH has fled and greed collapsed,
There, true value stood—unchanged, unwrapped.

In plain words: what this means

This is a parody hymn, sung to a church tune. Here are song notes on the real things it mentions. Checked on October 17, 2026.

Lines you can check

"Genesis block, the banker's fall." Bitcoin's first block was mined on January 3, 2009, and its embedded text is a newspaper headline: "The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks" (Bitcoin Wiki: Genesis block). Many people read this as a comment on why Bitcoin was built, though Satoshi never explained it in this block.
"Gas fees high." Fees on Ethereum rose sharply in boom periods. We did not look up peak figures for this page.
"Minus ninety percent." Some altcoins did fall that far. Bitcoin itself fell about 75% from its late-2021 high to its late-2022 low. See our Dark Times fact check.
"Rugs pulled." Rug pulls are real. Our OpenSea fact check covers the NFT version.

What the song does not say

The title says "ETH has gone." Ethereum is still running. The line is a joke about tribalism. We do not claim Ethereum has failed, and we do not give price advice about either coin.
