Will you take me to the Moon with you? (short play about Cryptos)
The curtain rises, scene is brightly lit. One kid is sleeping on a big pile of books and scientific tools. Then the coins appear. One majestic figure stands out but is closely followed by the second biggest kid around, a smart and cool looking guy. Nerdy coins stand in the corner, some other kids in khakis and ninja outfits lurk in the dark corners. One newcomer in a suit just paid the stage lightning technician to have the spotlight for himself when the big guy is not speaking while other guy is trying to look just like the big guy, copying his posture and trying to be everywhere where the big one might look. One kid is toying with something using a lot of strange looking banknotes.
The big one looks to the sky and smiles. The was the moment the little ones were waiting for.
Smaller Altcoins: O Bitcoin, Bitcoin, will you take us to the Moon with you?
Etherum: (Whistles) Isn't that a good question?
Altcoins: Bitcoin, please, please, take us with you, we promise we will be good.
Bitcoin: I don't know guys, there is so many of you. And though I love you a lot I small a lot of monkey business going on. Ether, what did you mean by saying that?
Etherum: Well, are you sure you want to go to the Moon?
Bitcoin: (Looks up) It sure looks nice. All big and round, just like me.
Etherum: It does, doesn‘t it. And once you get there, you plan to die upon landing or you have more in mind?
Bitcoin (with a smile): If you put it this way, I think I will be taking you with me, at least to the orbit. Some backup is a good idea after all.
The kid in a suit comes to the front of the stage and doesn’t hide his disgust.
Ripple: Moon? Who cares. I’ll be connecting distant galaxies.
Bitcoin: Big R, listen, I know you have a rich parents and you can be anywhere. And I know we haven’t welcome you with open hearts, but you are not making it any better.
Ripple: Who cares? (Walks away, still in disgust).
Golem (snores on his big pile of books, but doesn’t wake up).
Privacy coins (walk very quietly behind Bitcoin’s back in their khakis and whisper): Will you take us with you?
Bitcoin: (turns around) Who is talking? I can’t see you.
Bitcoin: (turns his head to the kid playing quietly with lot of banknotes) O my God, what are you doing? Looks cool, want some help?
Omise: Just my own rocket. You know what, old timer, you were cool once, but I think I will fly just fine on my own.
Metal (to himself): So will I. Once they’ll notice me. (Not much response from others.)
Bitcoin (to Omise): Sure, sure. If you can get the engine running.
Omise: Just sit here and wait.
Bitcoin: I’d love to, but I have to go. A little bird told me they want me back in China and with all the new fuel coming in…
Altcoins (sobbing): Our fuel.
Bitcoin: I know guys. Don‘t worry, you’ll get it back with much more once people see mu up there.
All: Thank you, Bitcoin.
The curtain is falling.
