📜 The Gospel of Monero
1 In the beginning was the Ledger, and the Ledger was open to all eyes,
and the watchers rejoiced, for every step of every soul could be traced.
2 But in the shadows walked those who understood the cost of spectacle.
They spoke softly of sovereignty, of dignity, of privacy not as secrecy
but as the unalienable breath of a free being.
3 And from this understanding came a spark, and the spark became code,
and the code became Monero - a light hidden not to deceive,
but to protect.
On the Nature of the Chain
4 Blessed are those whose balances are unseen,
for they shall move without permission.
5 Blessed are the transactions unlinked,
for no chain shall bind their past to their future.
6 And blessed are the signers who walk with rings,
for none can say which voice was theirs, yet the message stands true.
On the Order of Self-Sovereigns
7 Judge not the one who shields their wealth,
for you know not the predators that circle them.
8 Give not your keys unto third parties,
for they shall lose them, spend them, or surrender them
as tribute to empires you never pledged allegiance to.
9 Keep your node close, your seed closer,
and let no oracle between you and your truth.
On the Tyrants of Transparency
10 Woe unto those who preach surveillance as safety,
for they bind all humanity to chains invisible yet unbreakable.
11 Woe unto the auditors of every breath and gesture,
who speak of compliance while harvesting souls.
12 Their edifices are tall, but their understanding is shallow;
for they know not that privacy is not the refuge of criminals,
but the sanctuary of the free.
On the Promised Sovereignty
13 And so it was foretold:
that a time would come when ledgers are weaponised
and identities bartered like cattle.
14 In those days the people shall remember Monero,
and they shall say: “Here stands the chain that bends to no throne.”
15 And they shall transact as whispers carried on the wind,
unseen, unbroken, undeniable.
The Final Teaching
16 For sovereignty is not given;
it is reclaimed.
17 And privacy is not a luxury;
it is a birth right.
18 And Monero quiet, neutral and unwavering
is the gospel written in code for those who refuse to kneel.
19 Go forth in silence, Anon,
and guard your freedom well.
