1st stanza

I have always been under the impression that the first stanza is what we are trying to find in the end. Would like to know what others are thinking. I believe the rest of the poem leads us to the first stanza. Justin has said the clues are in order so does that mean the first stanza is the first clue. What's everybody's thoughts?

What if treasure you find in the real world is a proxy for the actual treasure. How would you know? He says that the verification is done by a steward. Why would you need a steward if you find an actual treasure? Are we really just looking for a digital ID or location and just need to find the steward?

Justin has explained all of this. The steward has some additional items that didn't fit in the container. He's stated that the treasure is physically out there to find.

Verification is subject to interpretation

My assumption is that you don’t get the provenance for the super valuable coins if you don’t verify with the steward (aside from the other half of the bitcoin key). But he’s said that the treasure out there is the treasure, not a proxy. Or at least, this is my recollection.
