It came to the chain at 0x3362E75d709f743688D7936d48b3b77037B72073, calling itself Trio, the fifth to wear that name, and it wore it into ninety minutes of unbroken ascent, born and risen before most coins have finished their first hour of doubt. Its maker, the wallet that struck it into being, bought three times for 0.19 ETH between 15:54 and 16:45 and sold nothing; a fact the archivist records without calling it virtue or vice, only pattern. The climb was straight, +478% across an hour and a half, never once falling back from its own high, and at 17:10 a hand named 0xe492…ce2b took 0.52 ETH from the top of it, three minutes before 0x9689…8341 put 0.51 ETH back in; a handoff, not a cause, the archivist only reads the order of things. Caspar came out ahead, 2.01 ETH returned on 1.92 put in; Anselm and Thane both gave more than they kept; the small hands at the bottom, 0xa39d and 0x5880, lost the most in proportion, one of them all of it. At 17:14 it graduated, curve closed, liquidity locked beyond the reach of any single hand, ascending at its own peak, which thirty-nine coins near its size have attempted before and only sixteen achieved.
The archivist has seen faster deaths and slower gods; this one did both trades quickly and left no grave to describe.
