/// Deep in thought here, The Medal Engraver
Lars Grandel plans a new party favor.
For each guest he’d provide
thin foil covers outside
chocolate medals with flavor to savor.
/// Chocolate medals could be bítter-sweet.
His engravings would be good to eat,
but the downside, Lars felt,
was the risk that they’d melt
in men’s pockets from natural heat.
/// Candy lovers in Sweden are blessed
by cold temperatures, many suggest.
Chocolate melts if you store
it by your body’s core,
so don’t pocket it close to the vest.
Answer to the question: What is a bitcoin?
/// “Can I tell a gold coin by the feel?
Might it merely be cheap gilded steel,
or of nickel, or lead?
Well, the coin salesman said
that he bit it to prove that it’s real.”
