​The Wedding Toast

​I was at my best friend’s wedding last weekend, and it was my turn to give the toast. I stood up, clinked my glass, and looked him dead in the eye.

​"Marriage is a lot like Bitcoin," I said.

​The room went silent. My friend looked nervous.

​"You see," I continued, "there are going to be some wild ups and downs. There will be times when you feel like you're on top of the world, and times where you're down 80% and questioning every life choice you've ever made. People on the outside will tell you it's a bubble and it's bound to crash. But if you just HODL and ignore the FUD, you'll eventually reach the moon."

​I paused for effect, then leaned into the microphone.

​"Anyway, the bar only accepts fiat, which is basically a dying legacy system, so I’d drink up now before the inflation hits your champagne. Also, if the groom’s father wants to talk about diversifying his 401k into a cold storage wallet, I’ll be by the cake. To the happy couple—and to 100k
