Starting today, I’ll take you by hand on a beautiful journey. You will (seg)witness the marvels of bitcoin’s history and memes; discover its heroes and felons, its core tenets and fallen angels. Imma stop right here cuz I’m not Peter Falk in the princess bride. Are you ready?
It is a pixelated recap of the first 13 years of bitcoin, a homage to the 8-bit style of art that expresses a slight nostalgia for the 90s, a way to soil 10s of thousands of SSDs spread across the world with my art (->next level cyber-vandalism), a tool to raise awareness about bitcoin and what I personally view as its core principles, an ironic way to vent at what I see as its annoying pop elements and aberrations.
It is a thank you to those I worked with and learned from, to those who are not around anymore but whose name should not be forgotten.
It is knowledge condensed and a journey for the curious. Alright imma stop right here cuz again, I'm not peter falk in the princess bride.
