Volume 3: Leviticus of the Nodes
Book III – The ₿aw
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.
3:1 After that day, the world saw—
Exchanges could not be trusted.
So the people began crafting their own wallets,
And verifying the chain with their own eyes.
3:2 Those who wished to keep Satoshi’s words
Installed nodes upon their machines.
They were no longer mere consumers—
But became part of the system itself.
“You shall not merely hold coins, But become a keeper of blocks.”
Leviticus 3:2
3:3 Then the disciples of Satoshi gathered,
And wrote down a sacred law—
The Ten HODL Commandments.
The Ten HODL Commandments
Thou shalt have no other coins before Satoshi.
Thou shalt not store thy keys outside thy wallet.
Engrave thy seed in heart, and inscribe it upon paper.
Covet not leverage; for it is temptation from the evil one.
Meditate on the words of Satoshi each weekend,
(And check on-chain while thou art at it.)
Envy not thy neighbor’s chart, but build thy own blocks.
Be not shaken by price — for ₿1 is always ₿1.
Share not thy wallet — trust in code alone.
Follow not Pumping Judas — observe the on-chain truth.
Teach thy HODL to thy children,
That they may not forsake the ₿lessing.
3:4 Those who kept these commandments
Did not fall into scams,
Nor were they consumed by FOMO,
Nor did they lose their freedom.
3:5 They looked not to charts,
But to the security of the network.
They trusted not in tweets,
But in block intervals.
They bowed not to central powers,
But to the Code.
“The on-chain does not lie.”
Leviticus 3:5
3:6 He who runs a node is like a priest—
Guarding the blocks,
Rejecting false transactions,
And walking in the will of Satoshi,
Who built trust without trust.
3:7 And Satoshi declared clearly:
“A world where all are banks
Is a world where banks are no longer needed.”
3:8 So do not call it tedious,
But live by verification.
Disable auto-login.
Reject 2FA.
Take dominion over thy own assets.
3:9 Help thy brother create a wallet.
Share seed phrases with thy children.
Teach on-chain data to thy friends.
This is true evangelism.
This is the beginning of digital inheritance.
“Code is the priesthood, The node is the temple, And HODL is faith made lifestyle.”
Leviticus 3:9
