🇬🇧 It felt appropriate to leave a taxidermied animal at the entrance of a hunting shop. It was interesting to watch people walk by, glance at the store window, and ignore the painting entirely. They all looked like tourists. In contrast, the person who noticed the painting at a glance ignored the shop’s existence and turns out wasn’t a tourist. In that moment, I immediately understood that the whole event made perfect sense. This bear market served as a reminder that Bitcoin’s volatility scares away the tourists. Volatility is what protects us from those who already have too much to accumulating even more. It is Satoshi’s gift to the faithful. Tourists only want to consume and go back home for comfort while we're all surviving. Bitcoin is not a place for tourists. It is a place where conviction is rewarded over the long term. It is a place for those who still have hope in the world we live in. 🇵🇹 Pareceu-me apropriado deixar um animal embalsamado na porta de uma loja de caça. Foi interessante de ver as pessoas a passar, a espreitar a montra da loja e a ignorar o quadro. Todas essas pareciam turistas. Ao contrário da pessoa que reparou no quadro de relance, ignorou a existência da loja e não era turista. De imediato percebi que este acontecimento fez todo o sentido. Este bear market serviu para relembrar que a volatilidade de Bitcoin espanta turistas. A volatilidade é o que nos salva de os que já têm muito, terem mais ainda. É um presente de Satoshi aos fieis. Os turistas só querem consumir e ir sair. Bitcoin não é um sítio para turistas. É um sítio onde a convicção é compensada a longo prazo. É um sítio para os que têm esperança no mundo em que vivemos. #painting #art #bear #bearmarket

🇬🇧 They say it’s bear season. This is how I see it: it’s sad. Bear markets are losing their strength over time. The Bitcoin Fear & Greed Index is flashing extreme fear. But let me tell you who’s really panicking, the very people who shouldn’t have been here in the first place. The overleveraged tech bros, the ones who treat it as just another investment, the institutional whales playing games with price manipulation. They’re gone, trapped and hunted. Out of the way to the real people that need Bitcoin as a tool for saving the value of labor. Grab this unique opportunity. Bitcoin doesn't wait for anyone. Buy ₿. 🇵🇹 Dizem que é época de bear market. É assim que eu o vejo: Triste. Os mercados de baixa estão a perder força com o tempo. O Índice de Medo e Ganância do Bitcoin está a sinalizar medo extremo. Mas deixa-me dizer-te quem está realmente em pânico: precisamente aqueles que nunca deveriam ter estado aqui. Os “tech bros” sobrealavancados, os que tratam isto como apenas mais um investimento, as baleias institucionais que jogam com a manipulação de preço. Foram todos encurralados e caçados. Saíram do caminho para dar lugar às pessoas reais que precisam de Bitcoin como ferramenta para preservar o valor do seu trabalho. Agarra esta oportunidade única. O Bitcoin não espera por ninguém. Compra ₿. #painting #bear #bearmarket #bitcoin

Using SEEDOR set on all my paintings #painting #proofofwork #seedor

For a decade I had an orange and white cat. The sign was under my nose all this time. #bitcoincat

While my brushes are resting I'm testing other forms of art. Let's what happens. #carpenter #diy #art #sculpture

🇬🇧 The rose that V leaves beside the fallen becomes, here, orange. A color associated with liberation and a flame of hope. The spark of an invention that questions the monopoly of our value. The flower rests upon a pile of government-issued money. Money stained with blood all over the planet. It is not a mere dramatic effect, it is an accusation. Fiat money (from the Latin fiat lux, let there be light) was and continues to be an instrument of control, a mechanism that seizes savings, commands obedience, and finances wars. Fix the money, fix the world. 🇵🇹 A flor repousa sobre uma pilha de notas de dinheiro governamental. Dinheiro que está manchado de sangue no planeta inteiro. Não é mero efeito dramático, é uma denúncia. O dinheiro Fiat (do latim fiat lux, faça-se luz) foi e continua a ser instrumento de controlo, um mecanismo que confisca poupanças, ordena obediência e financia guerras. Corrigir o dinheiro, corrigir o mundo. #art #painting #vforvendetta #freedom #killfiat #endthefed
