Crypto Fever

Introduction: The Crumb-Backed Economy

One slow afternoon, I posed a question to Pandy that I believed could revolutionize plushkind:

“What if we ditch money and just use cookies?”

He blinked. “Barter? Based on snacks?”
“Better,” I said, adjusting my cream bow tie like a TED Talker. “Cookiecoin. A fully edible, decentralized snack-based currency.”

Mini Blue turned greenish-gold—either intrigued or slightly nauseated.

Chapter 1: Currency with Crunch

Traditional currency is boring. Plastic, metal, can’t be dunked in milk. Cookies, however:

• Tangible value: You can see your wealth… and nibble it.
  
  

• Built-in scarcity: I always eat half.
  
  

• High motivation: No one hoards snacks out of greed. They hoard them out of love.
  
  

We held a trial run. I paid Mini Blue three chocolate chips for emotional support. They glowed lilac and nodded: fair trade.

Chapter 2: Inflation & Crumbflation

Trouble started when I began “minting” extra cookies to fund a plushie spa trip. Pandy warned me.

“Doggie, if everyone just prints cookies, they’ll lose value.”

But I was already knee-deep in snickerdoodles and economic denial. Soon, the cookie market crashed. Crumbs everywhere. Literal crumbflation.

Mini Blue’s color: gray with sugar specks = anxiety swirl.

Chapter 3: Crypto-Cookie Enters the Chat

Pandy suggested a more stable snack standard. “What if cookies were symbolic… but the real value was digital?”

Enter ChocoChain—a blockchain system where each cookie is backed by the promise of future snack value, secured by password-protected sprinkle codes.

It was brilliant. Safe. Secure. Slightly confusing. But less sticky.

Chapter 4: The Great Cookie Debate

We held a public forum. I argued for real cookie currency: direct, delicious, democratic.
Pandy pushed for snack-backed crypto: smarter, more sustainable, and fewer ants.
Mini Blue moderated. Their color shifted with each argument like a mood-based scoreboard.

In the end, we compromised:

• Big purchases = ChocoChain.
  
  

• Small bribes (like “please hand me the remote”) = 1 cookie.
  
  

• Emotional support = priceless.
  
  

Conclusion: The Future of Snackonomics

The cookie may not replace cash, but it can teach us about value, trust, and the true cost of licking your investment. Pandy says the real wealth is friendship. I say it’s friendship plus a backup bag of treats.

So next time you reach for your wallet, ask yourself:

“Could I pay in cookies?”

If the answer is yes—congrats. You’re one crunchy step closer to plushie utopia.
