Since February 2024, every Sunday, both the artist and his community share ‘flowers’ on the timeline as a gentle ritual appreciating the art behind Flora Forms. The first Bitcoin art collection adopted by a 300-year-old museum, house of Gustav Klimt’s ‘The Kiss,’ to which the collection is inspired. #sendflowers image

The record sale of Gustav Klimt’s painting (second only to Salvator Mundi) shows that art never dies. Do you agree the same is true for art on Bitcoin? Interestingly, a 300-year-old museum that houses many Klimt masterpieces has indeed collected and promoted Bitcoin based art. image

It’s time to set my first full bitcoin node up. And, why not, also a Nostr relay. I wonder if a Raspberry Pi 5 16GB is too much or not. Umbrel 2TB would be my go to, but it’s to pricy. Any thoughts? image

Arrangements: a collaboration between the award-winning visual poet Ana María Caballero and the UNESCO Francisco Carolinum Museum, Linz. The 130-year-old institution wanted to celebrate the 200th anniversary of composer Anton Bruckner’s birth. The visuals are curated by the generative artist Harto, and (most importantly) everything is inscribed in Bitcoin for preservation. There's a lot more to uncover about this stunning work (824 unique pieces) both on the artistic and the technical side... image

A 302 years old institution, one of the oldest museums in the world is adopting, promoting, and stewarding art on Bitcoin. The Viewfinder collection, by the artist Marcel Schwittlick (b.1989), was recently presented in a breathtaking venue: The Belvedere Museum in Vienna, Austria.

Reddit officially retires the Reddit Collectible Avatars (RCA) program. These avatars were a unique way to customise PFPs with multiple personalisation option. They onboarded over 30 million wallets (users may have multiple) without explaining the technology. Pre-IPO, the program gained significant traction, generating millions in value. Pictured: the iconic Nyan Cat by Chris Torres. image

My first Rare Pepe. I picked up the cheapest one with the best provenance: PEPECASH. The 11th card in first series of beloved collectibles on the Bitcoin's side chain XCP. This card was (and still is) used as a medium of exchange to buy other cards, and it had an initial supply of a billion. image

For newcomers: NOSTR is a protocol like Farcaster. You have login details (keys like username and password) usable across multiple apps and clients. It runs on private servers, with no company behind it, making it uncensorable. If one server goes down, another remains active.
