And yet, Bitcoin lives on

A rural-dwelling Satoshi weathers the events of the Covid-19 pandemic while harvesting the economic energy of a burning fiat currency system, represented by a set of skulls bearing currency symbols & moving images of paper currency.

The currency skulls are burnt to ashes, leaving behind an unscathed pile of Bitcoins which only grow larger over time to take their place.

IMF building displays direct quotes from the IMF's July 2021 Blog post: Cryptoassets as National Currency? A Step Too Far. Other details include Wells Fargo, JP Morgan Chase, Charles Schawb, PNC Bank, Bank of America, & Citibank logos on background buildings, a bitcoin price chart (screen captured from tradingview), a raging godzilla, and a roaming bear to represent my sentiment towards banking institutions. Sound track uses licensed sound FX, music, & 2 short sample clips from interview with IMF Financial Counsellor, Tobias Adrian ripped off youtube.
