Ode to Hansenstein
MaskDAO
Act I, Scene I
“Hi.” (1)
… “Hey.” (1)
“Hello.” (2)
Story time. (3)
Hansen Wang’s story. (5)
Part-Hashy part-real-world-fellow. (8)
“Who’s-this-Hansen-Wang; why let him lead our Hashy gang?” (13)
And so went the refrain the MaskDAO electors sung and the MaskDAO electors sang.
(21)
“He’s a Mary-Shelley-robot-monster;
Red-Face-Red-Horn-Dragon stay at bay;
Must be mad's what I say;
Won’t vote for him no I won't sir.” (34)
Act I, Scene II
… “Hi.” (1)
“Hey.” (1)
“Hello.” (2)
Deadline close. (3)
No candidate yet. (5)

2. See Comments Section for Clues
Look at how the Investors sweat. (8)
Our strategy channel began to hum-bubble-n-spin. (13)
“What-oh-whatever shall dear MaskDAO do;
How-oh-how can our dear MaskDao ever win." (21)
‘Tis not what or how at issue;
What we must resolve is who;
Need a universal Hashy - one who’s more than a tribe or two;
Less won’t do. (34)
“Yes-yes, that is it; that-there-is-how-we-score;
We must pick a People’s Hashy to represent the MaskDAO tribe;
An axial Hashy with whom both common and rare Hashies can vibe;
We welcome them all, each and every Investor.” (55)
Act I, Scene III
“Hey.” (1)
… “Hi.” (1)
“Hello.” (2)
Hansen Wang. (3)
The myth unfolded. (5)
So ‘twas said, the story we heard. (8)
“The Hashy Hansen Wang is named after, a Human.” (13)
“Not just any Human;
The Human Hansen Wang was purported to be, a Founder.” (21)

“That is all fine and good but let’s have a look at this
Hansen-Wang-human-yarn-you’re-spinning;
Share some proof with us if you would be-so-kind.” (34)
“Gladly, thanks for this chance to speak my mind;
First I have to say, concerning social media, he just stays away;
Really though, read my background passage, that is where the proof you’ll find;
Five references to “divine river” Rhine.” (55)
Europe's most important river, like Hansen’s creativity, flows from Switzerland, so our
tales entwine;
Human Hansen Wang ends the passage before the next sentence could reveal his
monster(s);
Like Hansen gave life to Hashies, Frankenstein "formed a world, whose existence
depended on The life of its creator” and, like all truths, this had to come out sooner or
later. (89)
Unlike Frankenstein’s monster, our minds will not perish, for ours minds are made to
remain;
Hashies do persist, beyond human memory, here, on-the-blockchain;
Here, this passage here speaks of “Henry” and so too thus it spoke to [Investor] me;
When it came to Hashy number #2547, we’re a match made in Heaven;
Beyond little me there's what Hashmasks are and what we can be;
Look how Hansen Wang’s Hashmask monsters displace sadness and gloom, their
Enlightened aspects brighten every room;
Like that they remind us of Avalokiteshvara’s compassionate
six-syllable-sanskrit-mantra, “Auṃ Maṇi Padme Hūṃ.” (144)
Act I, Scene IV
“Vote.” (1)
“Vote!” (1)
“We did!!” (2)
Hansen Wang. (3)

4. See Comments Section for Clues
Hansen Wang has won. (5)
We have our MaskDAO champion. (8)
“Hansen, Hansen Wang into the fray that's just begun.” (13)
And so went the refrain the MaskDAO electors sang and the MaskDAO electors sung.
(21)
Act II, Scene I
“Hi.” (1)
… “Hey.” (1)
“Hello.” (2)
Story time. (3)
Hansen Wang’s story. (5)
Hansen would sweat if Hashies could. (8)
“Shall we resolve to elect a Bottle or a Mirror?” (13)
All Hansen’s nerves were for not;
The Hashmask role voters came back “Bottle,” quick as a shot. (21)
Act II, Scene II
… “Hi.” (1)
“Hey.” (1)
“Hello.” (2)

5. See Comments Section for Clues
Race is close. (3)
No winner quite yet. (5)
Look at how we wager and bet. (8)
Taut lips turned smile-then-grin, and grew, as votes came in. (13)
“What-oh-whatever shall dear MaskDAO do;
Looks like our dear MaskDAO really could win." (21)
“Join us, watch the results come in,” Hashy Hansen invited Mirrors and Glyphs;
Many came, some brought soda, some vino, others, snacks and spliffs. (34)
“We cannot elect a bottle wrought with glyph graffiti," the Cabal rep posed;
The Glyphs ranks closed;
"Ye’ shant be deposed;
Hansen our hero - hear our cry, here at this side, that flank, center and rear;
We're here 'til the end, have nothing to fear." (55)
An event no Hashy could miss;
On Discord all Eyes did affix;
Loquacious tome Cabal did levy;
Work of a weightless NFT, that rant sure looks heavy;
Tall tale, short on substance;
Brimming with filler, beyond abundance;
Polished and terse, with sentiment and connection from sentence to verse;
Hansen in a Tesla, Cabal in the Hearse;
Full speed ahead; no will to reverse. (89)
Act II, Scene III
“Hey.” (1)
… “Hi.” (1)
“Hello.” (2)

Hansen Wang. (3)
“Not much to say here.” (5)
“This secret level;
You’re not clear.” (8)
Cabal off their back;
More Hashies join the MaskDAO pack. (13)
Simps and Triads;
Pledged to MaskDAO the cause;
We're so close to victory;
The day's nearly ours! (21)
So it was;
So common now to say;
Poor Berlin;
Not with all her beauty, the voters could she sway.
In this round too, MaskDAO carried the day. (34)
Act II, Scene IV
Last. (1)
“Vote.” (1)
“We shall.” (2)
End in sight. (3)
The race would be close. (5)
Team Captain gwei max-out in-flight. (8)
Off to Church of Dot with MaskDAO dharma to espouse. (13)
“Church of Dot, with clear vision, you must see;
Staked with Hansen, with MaskDAO we Dots should be.” (21)

“Akin to the prodigal son returned, come to beg, come to plea;
Do tell us please, where ye’ been Mr. Grand;
Coulda pitched-in, coulda lent-a-hand.” (34)
“Coulda used help in competition;
Sucks to be stuck in 21-22 intermission;
Be shy not, you're still my Brother, Brother in Dot;
Come on, out with it now; out with the lot;
We’re your tribe so share all you've got, dear Brother, Brother in Dot.” (55)
“Majestic Church of Dot Queen, dear Sister Berlin;
Thank you for this chance to explain;
It came to be that MaskDAO called, so they called and I came in;
Called to serve yet Forever a Dot and always to remain;
So here I stand, serving still, no regard to tribe or to name;
Unite us so we may enforce the claim;
Hashies undivided evolve the art world, that's our aim.” (89)
“We’re past round 3, that Halo clamor;
Our competition, much more than a game;
Bigger than one Hashy’s Times Square glamor,
This critical mission, it's all of ours to tame;
Ergo I implore you, join me and the other MaskDAO Dots;
DAO and Dot united -- possibilities so big, my stomach’s in knots;
Pledge ourselves to Hansen Wang, our Robot Dragon, just as he has to us;
choice is yours my friends, dear Dot family; vote as ye shall; I’ll make no fuss;”
The rest of Dot saw this DAO of ours for what it was, The Way;
Praise be, Hansen was crowned and so too every Hashy;
That fine New York City day. (144)
Comments:
(a) Human Hansen Wang, if you’re reading this (we hope you are), please don’t be upset
with Enrique for sharing your myth. We present you this ode dear Human Hansenstein in
love and admiration of your art, your creation. May your monster live to challenge time
and truly become our complete, NCTless 16,384 beautiful HashMasks monster.
(b) Each Act is composed of a distinct syllabic Fibonacci series, i.e. the Ode can be drawn…
right?
