New Leprechaun Gold

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill_of_Tara

For seventy years, Liam had chased every rainbow to capture a leprechaun and his pot of gold. Knowing that this would be his last rainbow, Liam slowly hobbled to the Hill of Tara.  Gasping in surprise, there sat his leprechaun.

Liam threw his rope and wrapped it around the green fella. “Ha!  I’ve caught you at last! Give me your όr (gold), you rόgaile (rascal)!”

The leprechaun sighed. “Have ye caught me at last, Liam? Been lookin’ for the όr all yer life, fear (man). I’ll give ye the gold.”  
 
 With that, he pulled out the latest Apple phone with all the doodads that anyone could want. He typed in something official, texting in some account numbers. “Here you go!” and handed it to Liam. "Yer gold is ready. Get it when ever you want."
 
“What?  WHAT? Bitcoins? Really?” Liam gasped.

“You bin livin' in the past, boyo." the little fellow stood up, brushed himself off, and explained.  "ONE coin is worth about $68,000 USD.  Ye have der enough gold there to buy yerself a small country." With that, the tiny man disappeared. 
 
Liam whistled after he figured out that he was indeed a very rich man.
 
The wee man left a wallet filled with ₤1,000 as an extra gift, which in American dollars is roughly $4,000.  Liam hobbled over to it and headed to O'Flanagan's Pub.  
 
No more End of the Rainbows. Hoist a pint with me, lads.  I am a-buying.

Rainbow's End

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill_of_Tara

For seventy years, Liam had chased every rainbow to capture a leprechaun and his pot of gold. Knowing that this would be his last rainbow, Liam slowly hobbled to the Hill of Tara.  Gasping in surprise, there sat his leprechaun.

Liam threw his rope and wrapped it around the green fella. “Ha!  I’ve caught you at last! Give me your όr (gold), you rόgaile (rascal)!”

The leprechaun sighed. “Have ye caught me at last, Ian? Been lookin’ for the όr all yer life, fear (man). I’ll give ye the gold.”  With that, he pulled out a Samsung 7 android phone, texting in some numbers. “Here you go!” and handed it to Liam.

“What?  WHAT? Bitcoins? Really?” Liam gasped.

“Worth every $8, 810.18 today!  And, ye have one hundred that, $8,810.18 times 100, so there you go, now. Redeem online." With that he faded into air. 

He left a wallet filled with ₤1,000 as an extra gift, which in American dollars is roughly $4,000.  Liam hobbled over to it and headed to O'Flanagan's Pub. No more End of the Rainbows for me.
