🚨 Shi Yongxin is actually a cryptocurrency enthusiast!? This article is from the official account: "Liu Hailiang", not my article, please know! First, take a look at some interesting plot points in the article. After reading them, be amazed and amazed—— Amitabha Buddha, it's not that I don't understand blockchain, it's that blockchain doesn't understand me, "Shi Yongxin said at a hotel in Dubai The great monk also used the anonymity of digital currency to exchange temple funds for Bitcoin, cutting off the funding chain through a coin mixer. There is a legend inside that whoever can master Shi Yongxin's cold wallet address will be the next abbot. There are some S19 Pro mining machines in the temple. The person in charge is Mr. Zhang, who worked in Huobi before. Later, because of too many "frozen cards", he escaped into the digital void. Leaving marks on the chain makes it difficult for Buddha to cross! Before reading the main text, let me make a comment: After reading this article, I was still greatly shocked. It was written very brilliantly, In my previous article, I happened to write that temples have never been "non-commercial" entities, but rather commercial organizations packaged as non-commercial; For thousands of years, Buddhism has constructed a highly predictable psychological and economic model through faith tools such as "causal reincarnation" and "merit giving". And the following article is even more brilliant: it perfectly explains that Shi Yongxin is not a person from the cryptocurrency circle, but he has long lived in the logic of the cryptocurrency circle. His operation can be regarded as the prototype of the "Chain Buddhist DAO": Having consensus (faith); Having assets (IP); There is a coinage mechanism (merit giving NFT prayer beads); There is a governance structure (the abbot is a super node). The irony is that he played a "decentralized Western Heaven" and ended up trapped in an "unchangeable chain of karma". So I said that Shi Yongxin was not assimilated by the cryptocurrency circle, but lived in the world of "faith as an asset" earlier than the cryptocurrency circle. As for whether it is like the temple mining Bitcoin and the merit giving NFT mentioned in the article, it is unknown. After reading everyone's picture, it is fun and interesting! The following is the main text, please read freely if interested—— For the case of Shi Yongxin, if your excitement lies in "not disappointing the Tathagata and not disappointing the minister", then please take your time and eat the melon to relieve the heat. If your excitement lies in Z therapy, which we don't understand, let's offer two T's of admiration. If your excitement lies in economics, then you can chat. What are we going to talk about? Today, I want to talk about the monk's understanding of blockchain. I didn't type it wrong, it's blockchain. The monk really understands blockchain. I saw the great monk again at a small-scale event of a certain chamber of commerce. During the meal, he was really a vegetarian with clear tea. After talking about Buddhism and Zen for a long time, I don't know how to talk about blockchain. Unexpectedly, the great monk really understands this. After thinking about it later, it's no wonder that he talked to Steve Jobs and Zhao Chang. He talked about building a "merit value" model, accurately pushing invitations to high-value meditation camps for believers, and converting the amount of faith into data. He also said that we need to promote the capitalization of Shaolin IP, by registering companies at home and abroad, developing NFT digital prayer beads, authorizing game skins, and other methods, we can push Shaolin's IP valuation to astronomical numbers. By the way, I was not familiar with NFTs before and feel ashamed. Moreover, his ideal is to tokenize Shaolin's intangible assets and achieve indirect overseas listing, which not only raises funds but also promotes Buddhism. He never takes his hands off the apple. When he visited Apple headquarters back then, he believed that "Apple is like Zen" and proposed using VR technology to recreate the scene inside the temple, allowing believers around the world to experience morning bells and evening drums through digital twins. I think the mind of the great monk is really brilliant. These applications appeared to be "powerful tools for spreading Buddhism", but later became the digital infrastructure of Shaolin's commercial empire. The 'Shaolin Cloud' is even more mysterious. It seems to be just an application to showcase Shaolin culture, but in fact, it is an on chain treasury. Users are devout in the app, such as "offering lamps", "giving alms", "inviting Buddhist beads", all of which involve financial transactions on the chain. Every merit fund will generate a token, which is played by many people overseas. Most people are familiar with Bitcoin and can only speculate for a short time. Some people have already started using Bitcoin. Moreover, the monk also utilized the anonymity of digital currency to exchange temple funds for Bitcoin, cutting off the funding chain through a coin mixer (CoinJoin). At the same time, fiat and digital currencies are exchanged through exchange accounts controlled by underground banks to avoid foreign exchange controls. It is said that Shi Yongxin once said at a hotel in Dubai, "Amitabha Buddha, it's not that I don't understand blockchain, it's that blockchain doesn't understand me Later on, I found out that the monk often transferred assets overseas through digital currency. Once, a huge amount of government subsidies was transferred to Singapore, claiming to be used for the construction of a Buddhist base. However, within three days, it was exchanged for Bitcoin and circulated to multiple wallet addresses. Eventually, tens of millions of dollars were returned through a mining company's "mineral procurement funds". He controls multiple affiliated enterprises and transfers funds such as temple tickets, incense offerings, and commercial income to a pre-set account before transferring them out under the name of overseas investment. Many of these are achieved through stablecoins or offshore exchanges. After these funds leave the country, a portion of them are exchanged for fiat currency through USDT or other stablecoins on offshore exchanges such as Dubai and Hong Kong. Leaving marks on the chain makes it difficult for Buddha to cross! After the incident, two mobile phones, a USB flash drive, and a string of beads engraved with mnemonic words were found. What are mnemonic words? Little novices must learn. There are 18 private keys of Ethereum wallets stored in the USB drive, believed to be worth billions of dollars in total. These wallets have participated in multiple decentralized agreements, with the proceeds used to purchase Dubai properties, London apartments, and Australian golf courses. However, what left the great monk most helpless was that the on chain records of these assets were clear and could not be tampered with. Buddha said, 'All forms are illusory,' but the data on the chain is not illusory. Buddha must have known that every operation that he considers mysterious is a cause and effect. Even more ironic is that when Shi Yongxin was investigated, digital products also exposed a lot of information. Firstly, his Weibo account "Master Shi Yongxin" stopped updating without any warning on July 24th, and the public learned that his data link was broken. Secondly, after July 23rd, his mobile phone signal disappeared from the Shaolin Temple Industrial Building, which was an active cut off of communication. Thirdly, the searched USB drive records a large amount of fund flows such as ticket revenue and martial arts school franchise fees, with the recipient pointing to an overseas digital wallet address. So there is a legend within them: whoever can master Shi Yongxin's cold wallet address will be the next abbot. According to people familiar with him, there are some S19 Pro mining machines in the temple, and the person in charge is Zhang. He worked in Huobi before, but later because of too many "frozen cards", he fled into the digital void. When entering customs, the packaging box of the mining machine is labeled with "religious and cultural activity" equipment. No one knows, this mining machine is connected to one of the top ten mining pools in the world in terms of computing power, and the wallet address belongs to a decentralized organization related to Shaolin. In the year when Bitcoin fell below $30000, the 1000th coin was quietly unearthed from the basement of a certain temple. Presumably, at that time, Shi Yongxin would stand in front of the Bodhidharma statue, twisting a string of numerical prayer beads in his hand and silently reciting, "Computational power is the power of aspiration A few years ago, a technical monk attempted to steal the address of this wallet but was unsuccessful. When the technology monk was expelled, he left a sentence: "Blockchain is the mantle of Bodhidharma, not the robe." On the day Shi Yongxin was taken away, a netizen left a message: "Buddha crosses sentient beings, and the cryptocurrency circle crosses the K-line. ” It is speculated that in the future, the epitaph of Shi Yongxin may be engraved with the words, "I originally wanted to build a decentralized Western Heaven using blockchain, but I didn't expect that there would also be reincarnation on the chain
