Rap battle between Alexander Hamilton and Satoshi Nakamoto over Bitcoin
This is pretty brilliant: A rap battle between Alexander Hamilton and Satoshi Nakamoto over the merits of centralized, government-fiat currency, versus decentralized cryptocurrencies.
It's a note-perfect homage to the terrific "cabinet rap battles" in the musical Hamilton (worth listening to, #1 and #2).
Over at freeCodeCamp, Quincy Larson transcribed the lyrics:
Read the rest[Satoshi Nakamoto]Decentralized currency. Yes, I invented it.Im sure many governments wish they had prevented itTheir national cash is how they keep control,But freedom to the people was my ultimate goal.Am I a pseudonym? A group of men? It doesnt even matter.I invented Bitcoin cause fiat is a disaster.A man from Japan or a damn hologram?Im the reason open season on crypto began.
[Alexander Hamilton]Does anybody know what this crypto-thing means?To me, sounds like the new Get Broke Quick scheme,A bunch of fools from across the landInvesting in something they dont even understand,Buying Litecoin, Dash, Bitcoin Cash,Its all gonna crash, and be gone in a flash.All this unsupported moneys an irrational prank,And Ill be laughing all the way to my National Bank.
