What happened

A short, unbylined parody of "Twas the Night Before Christmas" rewritten for Bitcoin, with a Svetski-esque sleigh, a little old driver in his Moto who is revealed as Nakamoto, and reindeer renamed Taproot, SHA-256, NGU and Liquid. It riffs on shitcoins going to zero, dandelion-seed privacy, lightning, Nostr and FUG, and has Max on the front lawn shouting "F*ck You Elon". No prose introduction or author attribution accompanies the verse.
