From @MadMunky2140 
You buy a story.
This is solid oak. Oak does not die easy. Left alone, it outlives the people who planted it. But this piece was not left alone.
I burned the surface with Shou Sugi Ban. Fire first, then brush, then oil. The outside turns to carbon. Black. Hard. Water runs off it. Rot cannot get in. Bugs leave it alone. Underneath, the wood stays alive for centuries. That is the oldest trick I know for cheating time.
Bitcoin is a timechain. This wood is a time chain too. Oak can last hundreds of years without help. With this burn, it can go further. A thousand years is not poetry. It is physics, and 2140 is not a dream. It is a number this piece can actually reach, sitting in someone’s room, long after I am gone.
On the wood are two men from Fight Club. Tyler Durden and the narrator. You know the story. One is real. One is the same man, dreaming of who he wishes he could be. That duality lives in all of us. The surface self pays bills, obeys, scans QR codes, accepts the fiat system. The other self wants privacy, cash, freedom tech, the underground.
Above them, or inside them, is BTC Club.
My proof of work is hardcoded into this piece. It was finalized in May 2024, stamped with Bitcoin block 842,335. Not a date on a calendar. A block. Carved into the chain. That is the real birth certificate of this work.
The piece carries the @2140Art+2140Music @2140.wtf stamp too. What started as underground movement is becoming more. An open-source Nostr client. A tool for speech that cannot be cancelled. A bridge between artists, coders, and builders who believe privacy is not a feature. It is the foundation.
This wood has traveled with me across Europe. Bitcoin meetups. Back rooms. Conferences. Strangers have touched it and understood without me explaining. It is not just an object. It is a witness. It remembers the workshop. The long drives. The conversations with people building the same escape plan.
Now I am selling it.
Not because I want to.
Because the next chapter needs money.
I want to build a Privacy Citadel in Prague. A physical space. A town, in a way, for cypherpunks. A place where builders, artists, coders, and outsiders can work with their hands and their machines. A fortress for freedom technology. A room where the first thing you check at the door is not your identity, but your proof of work.
So when you buy this, you are not buying wood.
You are buying a fragment of my last few years. You are buying a stake in the next few. You are buying the proof that one tired man, in a messy workshop, with cracked hands and no master plan, can still build something that outlasts the systems he is running from.
The value will rise. Not because I say so. Because oak survives. Because Bitcoin survives. Because truth, once carved, is hard to erase.
Own the art. Own the rebellion. Own something built to reach 2140.

OG Bitcoin Miner Bit Hasher 0001 by House of Ralfus
Description:
The original ledger device.
An antique wooden abacus mounted on an original French antique oval solid wood plinth, finished with a solid brass plaque engraved using traditional techniques: "OG Bitcoin Miner / Bit Hasher 0001 / House of Ralfus."
Before ASICs, before GPUs, before CPUs - there was the abacus. The oldest computing device known to humanity, the original tool for counting. Modern Bitcoin miners run trillions of hash operations per second. But strip away the silicon and the cooling and the megawatts: every hash is, at its core, counting.
This sculpture honours the work at its most ancient form. The first miner. The genesis hasher. The original ledger device.
A wink and a thesis at once.
From The Bitcoin Lexicon by House of Ralfus - an ongoing collection of one-of-one works building the visual vocabulary of Bitcoin. The first complete public showing takes place at a dedicated launch later in 2026. Collection enquiries: studio@houseofralfus.com.
Antique wooden abacus on original French antique oval solid wood plinth, solid brass plaque engraved using traditional techniques ("OG Bitcoin Miner / Bit Hasher 0001 / House of Ralfus"). The OG Bitcoin Miner.
54.5 x 38 x 17.3 cm (H x W x D, abacus on plinth)

"0388/CORN (print)" by @npub1rppx...phuf
Fine Art Print, Hahnemühle Photo Rag Bright White, unframed
42 x 59,4cm
"CORN is word #0388 of the BIP-39 mnemonic seed phrase wordlist. It is one of 2048 words currently reshaping our world. For many, these words were the starting point of the journey to becoming a true Bitcoiner—a path defined by freedom, sovereignty, and peace of mind.
This piece forms part of THE BIP39 SERIES by ZETRA, in which the artist visualises the intersection of these words, and their corresponding numbers, through striking graphics, sculpture, and other forms of expression. See the numbers. See the words."

"HANDS OF BITCOIN - 92164" by @npub1c3xw...tzey
Mixed materials on canvas, wood framed
60cm x 92cm x 5cm
"Hands of Bitcoin is a mixed media work that explores the human gesture as an interface between the physical world and the decentralized digital realm. The hands emerge as symbolic agents of interaction, validation, and creation within the Bitcoin network.
The presence of Satoshi Nakamoto is evoked through the anonymity of the gesture, reflecting cypherpunk principles of privacy, sovereignty, and decentralized authorship. The hands suggest action without identity and participation without central authority.
Geometric structures and energetic flows traverse the composition, indicating the transmission of value and information across the Bitcoin Timechain. The work reflects the role of individual nodes in sustaining a system governed by cryptography and consensus.
Bitcoin is presented as a technological discovery, grounded in mathematics and geometry—a structural phenomenon expressing decentralization aligned with the fundamental laws of the universe."
In @Flo Montoya's words: “The making involved choices at every step: how to hide wiring through a hollow torso without compromising its silhouette, how to sink a passage of the whitepaper into a base that still breathes, how to make a light respond only to authentic Proof of Work.
Months of prototypes, failed molds, firmware fixes, and long nights of calibration made this possible.
The piece you see is the result of that labour.
Now, collectors have the rare opportunity to claim piece 1 of 21 through the auction at BTC Prague — 1/21.”

"The Validating Totem" by @AdamKadmon
Wood, 23 carat gold
99/40/3 cm
"“The Validating Totem” is a artwork I created after a two-year pause. The project is ambitious. That’s why I had to approach it responsibly and consistently, without making hasty decisions that might have affected the direction of the entire work.
Throughout the process, I tested the limits of both the laser cutter and myself, many of the details are barely 2mm thick. After two months - most of which I spent in front of the computer working on the program - the end result was worth the effort.
I want to believe that I contributed to this incredible community of free spirits, fueling the idea that is Bitcoin. The emotions are many and varied, but one stands out above the rest - Gratitude.
This work is dedicated to each and every one of you who weathered the bear market with the absolute faith that everything would be alright. Be blessed, and don’t let politics crush your free spirit.
Bitcoin is an idea that brings hope in this mad mad world..."
