Hieroglyph Translation
After decades of conspiracy theories and investigations into the origins of “bitcoin” to no avail, has humanity discovered the origins of the creators or creator of “Bitcoin”. The mysteries remained an open case of mystery since inception and release of bitcoin in 2008. Until a recent hieroglyph found in-scripted in an asteroid landing from a meteor site that hit Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan in 2021. This hieroglyph has since then sent the world into a media frenzy. They constructed the hieroglyph from many sacred native ancient languages. Not just one. Most of the script has been translated, but it leaves much more to be deciphered.

Into the Unknown
In the dead of winter when the cold wept and the air briskly hit against your cheek, there was a warmth about Sunshine Mine. This is the same gloomy mine that the local townsfolk warned you about. They begged you tragically to disregard the deafening shrieks and wails of lure toward the old colliery. Many years had passed since the last courageous soul set foot in that dreadful place. Everyone had their own folklore about what went on deep inside. Some were true and some were just mere legends. There once was a tale of an awful curse that would fall upon anyone who dared to block off the entrance.

Confession Time
Alright, you’ve found this hidden envelope. That means you’re worthy of the story that it contains. It’s time for a little honesty, and I think you’re just the person to receive it. What you do with the information afterwards is up to you. To start my story, I need to drop one major truth on you. Gods are real, though none of the ones that you humans have created are perfectly accurate.

The Little Black Book
The Little Black Book Once upon a time there was a Crystal child who gave birth to two Rainbow children. Unconditional love and generosity are strong values in the Rainbow tribe and the Crystal/Rainbow children represent our own continued evolution of higher consciousness as a species. They are God’s gift to humanity. They represent divinity incarnated. Very few have been born but their presence is known and felt all around the world as they herald in the New Age of Aquarius and the next Mayan great cycle. There will come a day when a tribe of people from all different backgrounds, colors, and creeds come together to protect Mother Earth.
