The Cat in the Hat Snubs Fiat (apologies to Dr. Seuss)

By EsoterRick | EsoterRick Musings | 26 Aug 2021


When you have read all of the Dr. Seuss books to your children, hundreds of times, it begins to affect you in strange ways. This is what happens when you mix it up with crypto

My sister and I

Were at home all alone

When this cat came to visit

But we just wanted him gone

+

This tale sounds preposterous

But what I tell you is true

Sister was there

She can verify it too

+

He grabbed my piggy bank

His eyes started to grow

He spoke about bitcoin

And the magic of crypto

+

“Get rid of this fiat boy

It’s time to invest

Let’s get you a wallet

Bitcoin, nothing less.”

+

We shied away

As he began to blather

About satoshi’s and stacks

Worked himself into a lather

+

The cat ranted about Fiat

Of the blockchain savior

Then the words began to rain

With crypto of many flavors

+

Of Doge, Thor,

Binance and SASS

Defi, Ethereum

Cardano and ASS

+

Polygon and Hex

Unicorn too 

Kukoin and DAO

Maker and Zoo

+

We could not stop the cat

He continued to chatter

He even named a crypto:

Antimatter

+

We asked him to leave

We hadn’t a clue

What he was talking about 

Nor what to do.

+

He finally left

But with my piggy bank

He left me a note

And my heart just sank

+

The note had instructions

About a private key

An address, that only mystified me

“Keep it safe,” it said,

“this is your fortune - you will see”

+

What happened next?

I heard someone say

That, my friends, is a crypto story

For another day.

Hope you had some fun with this.
