'Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house
not a crypto was traded, no click from my mouse.
Our wallets were snugged in our browsers with care
in hopes that a power up soon would be there.

🎄

My family of bloggers were tucked in their beds
while visions of pool rewards danced in their heads.
And mom in her yoga pants, I in my sweats
were napping quite peacefully, free from our debts.

🔔

When pings from my Discord, they caused such a clatter
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.
And toward my computer desk, tripping, careened,
where I opened my laptop and blinked at the screen.

The glow of the channel, the chat scrolling by
gave the lustre of mid-day to pencils nearby.
When, there for my wondering eyes, all a-blink
Was a mention of upvotes from whales on my link!

🍭

These whales had a driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.
More rapid than eagles his voting whales came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!

🎅

“Now @Blocktrades! And @Curie! Now, @Aggroed, @LukeStokes!
@Ausbitbank! @Ned, @Stellabelle! @Hendrikdegrote!
To the top of the trending page! Top of the wall!
Now upvote and comment! Now upvote them all!”

🐳

Then he spoke not a word, crypto Santa at work,
He clicked all our posts; then he turned with a jerk.
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the Trending Page rose!

🎁

Then he sprang to his sleigh, to his whales gave a whistle,
And away they all swam like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, as he followed his team,
"Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good Steem!"


Merry Christmas everyone!
