KARHU

Karhu

before bobo, before the bearwhale, bitcoin had a bear god.

the first named crypto bear market mascot i could find.

bitcointalk, 2014

  1. a new account on bitcointalk introduced itself.

    “I’m a bear of wealth and taste.”
  2. two days later, he declared the age of karhu and demanded tribute from the bulls.

  3. traders were already comparing the bearwhale to him.

  4. Now

    the age of karhu begins again.

the post, word for word

KARHU / bitcointalk.org /

The age of KARHU begins....seek ye refuge in alms to the KARHU!

Prophets, Disciples, Worshipers of the Bull, Traders, Pigs, Fools, I welcome you to the place of worship of the great spirit KARHU! Here you may pay tidings to KARHU as the age of KARHU enters ascendancy as the age of the BULL wanes. Should you pay your tidings to KARHU at the appropriate times you will prosper in time for the BULL's return where the new cycle of the ages begins.

The wise will prosper in the age of KARHU, all others will perish in the valley of capitulation. Seek ye salvation now while you can to avoid the pain that is coming and pray ye that the market does not die on KARHU as many others across the ages have before. KARHU is fair only to the wise, all others shall fear his wrath and for them only destitution awaits.

  • Should you choose to worship the BULL as it's age ends you will suffer.
  • Should you refuse to pay tidings to KARHU as the age of KARHU rotates through the cosmos you will suffer.
  • Should you be greedy, unfaithful, or ignorant of KARHU you will suffer.

Although known by many names there is only one KARHU!

KARHU

OHoHo! what a feast I will have in the coming months. Only fools persist in ignorance and lessons are painfully earned. Enjoy your frivolities little ones, memories are all you will have left soon.

KARHU

KARHU is one among many names you shall come to call me by, along with many profanities along the way should you not see the light and pay BTC tidings to market as the age of KARHU progresses.

KARHU is a beer

KARHU

Sigh.....time immemorial spent upon the astral plane of the markets, yet they name one beer after you, and this is what you get.

I applaud OP's effort to take trolling to the next level.
