my response to Donna.
Effectively, I’ve condensed an entire multi-series interview between @Breedlove22 and @saylor into eight bars, outlining the history of money—from metal coins to banknotes and the inevitable consequences of debasement.
Hook lyrics:
"Money don't grow on trees
Once upon a time printed on machines
Before that pressed out of metal
And it weighed a lot
So much that the bank pressed ink on paper sheets
We got your gold you can hold on to these
Primasory notes were great receipts
Untill the bank run made them see"
Since this song is new and unreleased, I haven’t yet captured visuals specifically for it. For the conference, I repurposed B-roll from a prior release, which I felt symbolically represents the violence that can emerge as a negative externality of monetary debasement.
The verse lyrics delve into the emotional reactions of individuals harmed by currency debasement, as well as the use of force by legal authorities—whether just or corrupt.
Ultimately, it all ties back to Bitcoin’s ethos, contrasting human fallibility with the infallibility of sound money and the relationship between the two
My role in the Bitcoin space is to explore the financial social and political zeitgeist via art and music.
Thanks for your curiosity.
