  I strain under some miner's vengeful glee
  four points below
  smitten with a pick axe to the heart,
  my question's right though:
  is this the killer app?

  Prometheus' fire was deemed too vain a thing
  compared to blocked chained trees ...
  And yet, were lies the gain?
  Untold amounts of money changing hands amount to naught
  compared to all the promises of gold
  and a world changed, made by Satoshisan
  not long ago.

  A decade and some years passed
  much DeFi's come and gone
  and neither acolytes of doom
  nor coiners wild
  can tell, in truth
  who's winning most.
  (If any at all ...)

  Society? I highly doubt.
  Today at least.

  Satoshi's promise though, lives on
  in every mint.

I thought as much ...

(At least you've taken the time to reply - even to a tongue in cheek comment - instead of taking to the downvotes, which I appreciate ...)

Considering EVM fees, I find it endlessly fascinating that people are paying for computation per cycle, on a distributed VM.-

It blows one away ...

(Also, a pity that Conway is not here to opine on this.)
