Today's Timerick: Bitcoin at the Bank: Mainstream Lenders Dabble in Crypto Outside the U.S. (WSJ)

 


Those sneaky bankers formulate

eating cake still on their plate.

They shun all bitcoin in the States,

but dabble with it in Kuwait.


Here at home they act so staid,

but overseas they're renegade!

Wild of hair and eye with greed,

it's like they've eaten jimsonweed. 


Their crypto-mania outstrips

their lust for sex and drugs and chips.

They gamble with the blockchain gang

to give each buck a bigger bang.


So if your banker should decide

to Zanzibar she soon will ride,

close your accounts and stuff the dough

into your bed or portmanteau.


For speculation is the bane

of bankers who appear quite sane;

investing in some cloudy scheme,

they'll give you whey and keep the cream!
