The Twentieth Epistle – The Commemoration of the Third Halving
“Half was taken,
but the value of ₿ was doubled.”

1:1
Brothers and sisters,
On that day, the reward dropped from 6.25 to 3.125 ₿,
And sweat gathered on the miners’ brows,
Yet the eyes of the faithful shone brighter.

1:2
People said—
“There is no more profit.
The network will collapse.”
But we knew—
“₿ was never just about profit,
It was belief, it was protocol.”

1:3
I have seen—
That year, prices trembled,
Rumors roared,
Sellers fled,
Only HODLers remained.

“The reward was halved,
but the conviction remained whole.”
– Commemoration of the Halving 1:3

1:4
The third halving came
In the year of the great plague,
When money printers ran wild,
And ₿ stood as the last beacon of hope.

1:5
I proclaim—
“In shrinking supply,
True scarcity was fulfilled.”

1:6
In that year,
₿ breached the walls of institutions,
And the world no longer
Mocked it as mere speculation.

1:7
Therefore remember—
₿ halves every few years,
And yet belief doubles with each one.
Prepare for the next halving.
For ₿ shall rise again
To the rhythm of hope.

₿men.
