See You At The Top

My phone softly pinged.

I swiped the notification away and with a heavy heart, slowly stood.

Guy's, it's time.

I called out to the family dotted about the house. No one answered, although somewhere, I heard someone shout arsehole.

I hoped it wasn't one of my children. Then again, I hoped it wasn't the Good Lady. This was no time to be frivolously tossing off insults to husbands. Not after the news I had just seen.

Guys?

Fucking bastards. No one ever listened.

I walked into the kitchen and lifted the fake tin of Beluga Oil from one of the shelves. From within I took out a small silver key. I lifted my glasses and pinched the bridge of my nose. From outside I thought I could hear distant screams.

It was coming.

Guys, you had better come. Quick.

I yelled. A tinge of desperation in my tone. They didn't know what was coming, few did. If we were to survive we had to move quickly.

Hot cocking donkeys man, what was keeping them? Why were they ignoring me? This was serious.

I opened the hall cupboard and slid the little silver key into a small unassuming metal box attached to the wall. It turned as easily as a 'Hive Blogger for life' who has been caught plagiarising.

Awoooga... Awooooga... Awooooga...

A klaxon sounded throughout the house. The family were meant to come running at the first sound of it but no one did. Although I thought I heard someone shout fucking bumfeet.

I wondered what they meant.

Quickly I shook my head to rid myself of such trivial thoughts. I would have plenty of time to contemplate bumfeet where I was going.

Which was down there.

Before me, a trapdoor had opened up and a small flight of stairs faintly lit by small dotted LEDs led down into the unknown.

Outside I could hear the far-off roaring noise growing louder. More screaming, desperate and high-pitched like a top Blurt author looking for engagement in the yawning emptiness of the comment section of one of their posts.

Dammit. They were taking too long. I would have to leave them. At least it would be quick. They wouldn't know that everything was about to end for them.

Bitcoin had hit an all-time high today. In fact mere moments ago. I had been preparing for this for years by building my cryogenic sleep escape chamber deep within the bowels of the earth. Everyone thought that the price hitting an all-time high would be a good thing.

But I knew differently. I knew that what goes up must come down and that Bitcoin was about to come crashing down destroying everything beneath it like an imaginary money tsunami.

Few if any would survive.

Except for me, I had customised my old Zanussi chest freezer and jerry-rigged a Raspberry Pi to it with some shonky code that ChatGPT had been more than happy to spit out for me.

I had created a way to sleep for the next thousand years and escape the madness and death that would be coming with the Bitcoin crash.

I contemplated calling for my family one more time as the screams of humanity dying grew to a crescendo.

Then I shook my head and smirked.

So long suckers!

I tramped down the stairs. A new destiny awaited.

alright alright, I was so enamoured with my thumbnail I had to write something and when bitcoin went ATH, how could I not honour it!

Sort:  

Hallelujah!!!

We've almost reached the moon.

Mr G!!! How are ya!!! We have, maybe!! 😀😀😀

Hey Boom Dawg, I'm doing well. I switched roles at work ... so learning some new ropes - but still in the game of fixing everyone else's 'puter issues.

The learning curve hasn't been leaving enough time for Hive. But I'm getting closer to steady state.

Steady state will be good.

I have been in a similar boat in work, got a sort of promo and just keep getting stuff piled on me that I barely understand.

But getting there! Good to hear from you 😀

You look dashing in that thumbnail. It's the pants.

The pants maketh the man!! 😀😀

You are are gifted artist both in story creation and in drawing. I love this piece

Ach, I am just a bit maverick is all 😀

Hot cocking donkeys

never have I ever 😆

Wtf does "fucking bumfeet" mean?

This will keep me awake at night for days!

Hello you. You're on form! :D

I came to solicit a sale for a t-shirt for the store that may never be launched. I've finally found a payment gateway that may actually work. I lost my PayGate account in the ruckus as well and can't be assed to go through all the admin to get it back right now. *Yawn (painful - I loath admin. Did you know that about me?)

if you still want one. Of course.

And you do know about me... I hope by now... that I won't take it personally if you don't want one anymore

Happy weekend! I'm taking a day off to game and get some fresh air and sunshine.

See you tomorrow again if all goes well

Hey hey you, of course I am game for a t-shirt! How do I get em where do I go!

Sad long as the shopping isn't mental, lol.

Bumfeet, the last great mystery, where do they come from, what are they for. Perhaps it's safer if we never know! 😀

Hmmm... well Rollo May would disagree. And he's been around quite a bit and is quite smart!

Um... perhaps it's more about timing

But I guess we'll never know for sure :D

Okay cool. No. I loath shopping big time. So if it isn't easy then I redo. Your feedback is important

Okay. Let's go shopping! (but you have to say it in a posh English accent or it don't work)

Let me finish the thing off and get back to you

(and another two months go by...)

😆

The market is destined to go up at the moment and small corrections like this will continue, so no need to worry, we will go to $100,000 within a short period of time.

And then we can shelter in our bunkers for the crash! :O)

I'm proud to say I read ALL 553024827294 posts on social media about this event.

I did too and I am pleased to report that I agree with EVERY SINGLE ONE!

Yeah. Almost bought at the top like they did but instead, I didn't.

My life is only Bitcoin. I literally eat it. From a bowl. I am a maximalist

By the sounds of this post, I'd say you're a survivalist-maximus, if I felt like being all "scientific" about it.

That is the kind of science I can get behind. Who needs brains, labels do me just fine!

Me know me not need no blain.

Hahaa a narrow escape indeed. The freezer sometimes seems like a good idea lol, though the thought of waking up in a thousand years and finding out Biden is still the fucking president scares the shit out of me lol. If only the governments would get out of the way so our shitcoins and bitcoins and Hivvies could go the way they are supposed to go...aaahhh, dreams. Good story!

He would still be the same age. Like a mummy!

I would love it if the governments would get out of the way, They are going to ruin it all and then someone will have to come up with something else!

LOL That's all we have in this country - old mummies and they're startin' to stink. There would have to be some serious shennanigans going on to ruin crypto, but they sure can make it difficult....bastards!

They are getting older each time. We have a shite government but at least they are not pensioners! I would worry that whoever wins will die in office and their crazy VP will get in!

That's a big concern really. Maybe folks should be voting on the VPs instead of the prez lol. I don't pay much attention to politics as a rule, but when you have two old geezers slinging words at each other it makes for some great memes lol. I'm a bit of an old geezer myself but I'm not trying to run anyone's life but my own😁

Hehe exactly. These old geezers have everyone else's life at stake. Its when they start rattling the war sabres I get worried. They are all the bloody same as well. Looking out for themselves and their rich pals!

One of my fear - asking one of family members to buy Bitcoin or crypto at the top. !LOL what happened yesterday was like unexpected even tho I was waiting for that correction the way it turned out.. this was healthy to continue rally.

Similar thing happened last year on 5th march.. as well as in 2020.. let's hope it won't fall again and no one gonna catch that falling knife in crash.

Someone in my work once bought £50 worth of Bitcoin from me despite me telling them that the market was hot and it couldn't be far from the top, it was the last bull run. A week later his 50 had lost value and was worth just under 40 and he turned into the most bitter scam accusing person ever. I genuinely think he thought he was going to become a bitty millionaire with that one :OD

This is why it's better to restrain from being a kind good hearted citizen lol. People will always search someone to blame. If they fail they will bite you, if they succeed because of you they will soon forget you. Such is human nature. Fickle.

Fickle bastards always look for someeone to blame. Sadly that is the way of it!

!LOL I know such people.. they can't take risk to invest first but than when fomo is all around they expect life changing money from that $50..learned a life lesson myself to not involve any person from irl to crypto..

Seagulls were God's third attempt at creating birds.
The A-gull and B-gull weren't quite right.

Same here! There were too many incidents of people turning weird! Another friend of mine got into Hive and then left when he had three hundred hive and then boasted to several of our mutual friends that he had made thousands by selling up at the top. A) he didn't and B) I was astonished he felt the need to lie, even to me who knew he had made 200 dollars!

I don’t think I’ve ever asked, do you make the cover images first and then write a post around them or write the post first and then make the cover image for it? I think I always assumed the latter but now I’m wondering 😆

Hehe, I always (mostly) write the post first and then try to create an image that suits, well, suits in my head at least. But sometimes Iget bored and I fanny about and start playing with images and this one was one of them so I thought crikey, I need to use that for my next post and then BTC went boom!

Clearly it was meant to be XD

Heh heh, yes indeed!! 🤣🤣

Escaping to the bowls of the earth, was it worth it, did it work?

Well done on setup at least some forward thought with suckers stuck above!

!BEER Cheers to the roller coaster ride.....

It worked, the future doesnt seem so different. In fact it is like nothing has changed! :OD

Good news, down under/up over, good to have you back!

My nine lives are still intact and no I dont know how that works 😃😃

Good to know you have all nine, not sure how many I've eaten into 🙃

Bet you have hardly any left 😉

Hopefully a couple, dropkick the old bugger off 🙃 might extend!

Wow that I saw in the news that bitcoin reached its historical maximum, that's good for all currencies and that the buying and selling of cryptocurrencies is available through special platforms of Bitcoin exchanges or ATMs.

Let's hope for a good impact on the other currencies 😺.

In the meantime, I'm getting ready for my work day. Have the best day possible My dear Mr.🔆

I think it will affect ecerything as the year progresses at least until Christmas where it will have an almighty fall and people will weep :OD

I am in my work right now, hope yo uhave a good day milady!

That's what the news says, and well we're already crying with so many ups and downs.

Leaving for mine. Good morning, gentleman.

There correction of BTC was needed mate 😉

Hehe, it was indeed and it's going straight back up!!

as I am not one of those

it turned as easily as a 'Hive Blogger for life' who has been caught plagiarising.

haha!

Hope you're able to keep blogging and commenting in your current frozen state or at least left a clone or two to entertain us while you're gone.

Hehe, futurama was great!

I am still with us. I can only blame the multiverse or something :OD

Thank you multiverse!⚡

It always comes through!! 🤣

I have seen a lot of BTC ATH posts, but this is by far the most entertaining out of all of them. I initially thought some surstromming spilled in a cabinet or something. But cheers, here's to hoping we keep on making new ATHs, and for altcoins to follow suit.

Cheers dude! I get tired of seeing the template ATH posts people copy from CoinMarketCAp!!

ATH's all the way. At least for a while. That would do us all a lot of good! :OD

Going through the trap door just to hide 😅😅😅
Quite understandable though
Might be a serious storm coming up 😂😂

If in doubt and you cannot run, then hide, its a stationary form of running :OD

I am hoping its a mad storm of crypto bounty that will see us all laughing!

😂😂😂.... don't you dare leave me out hombre. We have to go together.

When I saw my estimated value in my wallet, I knew straight away that screaming would never end..

Come into the chest freezer with me, we can chill together 😃😃😃

Haha...chilling moment. That sounds nice

The end is here 😂 Whatever will we do when it goes down again?!?!

Even though I take the piss I really hope we dont go into a crash and that short stint would have been the bull run. I know they can be short but not that short! 😃

lol, true!

Are you able to access collections in Peakd? I'm trying to put my newest series together and keep getting an error. Will report it on Discord if it's not just me 😂

Thanks, it must be at my end then

Might be you need to switch nodes?

I tried, no luck :( And the Peakd guys seem to have missed my message. I'll have to try to figure out how to format it, and add the links manually.

Hehe😂😂😂
Also, a friend predicted that BTC will keep going down but I had to let him realize what price correction means

It's funny how everyone like your friend suddenly becomes an expert! Yeah, we ain't going totally down yet! 😃

Well.... that thumbnail is quite worthy of a good story. Nicely done !

"They" say, everyone has a line in which they would leave even their family behind. I'm so glad your house wasn't on fire and after giving a few shout-outs, you didn't go looking for the others. LOL !!!

Fun ! Fun ! It was nice to have a little laugh on this gray morning.

Hehe, if you can't laugh then you deserve to wither in the crypto storms! :OD

I was quite insanely proud of that one. Every now and then I do one that makes me go ooooo, lol

Wither indeed !

In a moment of sweet serendipity my new "Cypherpunk" t-shirt arrived on the very day BTC briefly breeched the previous ATH. I couldn't help but smile at the timing of that.

I've had two people calling me for advice since the recent spike, desperate to get in. I understand why most people are poor, I really do. Why is buy low, sell high so difficult?

Awesome, I like it!

It's mad, as soon as they're is possible action people want in and when it's ded and cheap they don't, sigh

Up to a point I thought he was writing something serious. Wait a minute, are you serious?

I hope bitcoin keeps going up, man!

Man I am never serious! :OD

I hope it goes crazy up. We could all do with some decent crypto fever! :OD

I've never had more than a few pennies in Bitcoin and it may not be a good bet for getting rich now. On the other hand it may go 10x, but whatever. I'm happy enough earning $HIVE and enjoying the process. I think too many people are chasing money rather than living their lives. I get that some are desperate, but it tends to be a big money people who really rake it in. I'm in a fortunate position really.

Anyway, I'll see you in a millennium or so. I'm assuming the Pi will last that long.

Pi's are guarnateed to never die. Or something. One of us will be dying and I dont aim it to be me so maybe it will fail!"

I only have a small amount of BTC but this time round if we see a surge in Hive I think I am going to cash it into HBD in anticipation of it crashing again and doubling my hive. Lol, you know what happens when you make plans like that tho. I will buy HBD and it will continue to soar into the stratosphere :OD

At least the $HIVE price went up after I bought my last lot. That may encourage some folk to stick with it.

Yeah, when there is an uptick they all become loyal!

First and foremost: great cover photo. Haha... it was the first thing I saw when I woke up today.
Second: get ready to come visit me in Ibiza, at that house I told you I was going to buy. 😂

BTC is going to surpass 80K, before melting down as you have predicted.

BTW, I still remember that powerful secret you revealed in Ibiza, that would change the world as we know it, and I burst out laughing.

Thank you! I am quite happy with that photo!

Buy that house and I will be there, it is my favourite island after all :OD

I dont even think I can remember that secret!! :OD

That character who escaped there and stayed dressed as a woman in a silly attempt not to be recognized hahahaha

Hahahah! Thats right. Tis the right island for it lol!

That was a thriller right up to the end. Had me on the edge of my seat.

So you think that's it for btc? Not going any higher?

Oh no, I think its a correction and I actually dont tell anyone believe it will crash up beyond 120K towar Christmas before dropping gently for ages and settling to about 60K as its new bottom.

That would be nice. It will probably just die now I have said that :oD

Yeah that's basically what I'm thinking too, if history repeats itself

I am quite sure it will. It would be nice if it went utterly crazy and made wild highs!

That is the dream 🤩

Bitcoin llegará a 300 mil $ pronto.

Yeeeehaaa! 😀😀

The current bull rally of Bitcoin is giving hope to others crypto assets like hive. We hope for glory days.🥰

I am fairly sure they will come sooner than we can imagine!

Thank you for strengthening my hope.😍

Lol, dont get too hopeful, No one knows where crypto goes! :OD

Brilliant, all joking aside, have you a sell point locked in? Say Bitcoin hits $150K, will you cash in?

God aye, I am thinking of cashing out a lot of this bull run turns into a mega one!!

What an imbecil you are... you and your filthy acolytes. You are the pathetic slaves of galenkp, a pastiche so-called Australian. Fuckin' hate you guts, mooorons! I'd suggest you'd listen to some Johnny Cash. There's one good song for some filthy money bags as you!

Sounds like you are having a rage wank buddy!

He's so needy...Needy needy-V indeedy.

Needy-V is the most apt nickname ever!

What the Needy-V doesn't realise though, is that the V can also stand for Vagina! Lol, it almost writes itself with that cunt.

Needy-V and his sandy vag.

Like a badly washed clam! 🤣🤣

Needy-V needs some Vagisil to wash that smelly vag of his.

I am not, was not, and will not be a buddy to you or the likes of you here. That's one thing which you should always take into account, if you can, that is. Secondly, it's not a wank. I am by no means an expert at this, but I severely doubt you and the other pastiche severally cortically-challenged creep would ever be able to understand this to any extent. Otherwise, he has such a lack of imagination (which is absolutely pathetic) that he can't even come up with brighter and more intelligent swear words than the c word... but each and every time he uses it he should very well know he is way, way below a woman when doing so (once again, if need be, he wouldn't be able to comprehend this at all). All he can comprehend is his puny, rusty 3D weapons. Such an imbecil coward...

So if we aint buddies does that make us lovers? Ew, I.. I don't know if I am ready to take that step yet my darling.

Boomy, maybe Needy-V will someday learn how to spell imbecile huh?

Come now, next you will be suggesting he addresses his over use of commas and parentheses!

If the cunt had any idea how badly he wrote, how ridiculous his references to kangaroos and his infantile dialogues made him look he'd slink away into a little hole and never come out.

I actually love it when he posts comments, as I have the opportunity to lower his reputation score, which will drop below zero eventually and mute everything he posts, through downvotes.
