Today I was watching Steal, a new TV series on Prime Video, and for the umpteenth time Bitcoin appears, misinformation is being spread. TV series and films that Bitcoin must stop making people believe that if a cold wallet is lost or stolen, your Bitcoin is gone. This is not a harmless simplification. It is misinformation. Saying that Bitcoin is โ€œinsideโ€ a cold wallet is like saying money is inside an ATM. Itโ€™s a convenient lie for the plot, but toxic for the listener. It oversimplifies, yes โ€” but worse, it simplifies wrong. Here on Nostr, we know this well: a cold wallet does not contain Bitcoin. It contains keys. And those keys can be reborn elsewhere, as long as the seed phrase exists. If you lose the device but still have the 12 or 24 words, youโ€™ve lost nothing. This is a fundamental difference. Yet in films and TV series, the wallet becomes a relic: it falls into the sea, explodes, gets stolenโ€ฆ and thatโ€™s the end of the story. Bitcoin evaporated. Easy drama. Immediate fear. I understand why. A seed phrase is not photogenic. Twelve words on paper donโ€™t create tension. A physical object does. But the price is paid by the viewer, not the screenwriter. Because that scene sticks. It sticks when someone thinks, โ€œBetter not save in Bitcoin, if all it takes is losing a deviceโ€ฆโ€ It sticks when fear wins over understanding. It would take very little. One line. A sentence thrown in, almost casually: โ€œDonโ€™t worry โ€” as long as we have the words, we can rebuild everything.โ€ Ten seconds. No infodump. No lecture. Just the truth. The point is not to defend Bitcoin like a religion. The point is to stop educating people through fear and narrative lies. Misrepresenting a new technology is not neutral. It shapes decisions, discourages saving, and reinforces the idea that everything is fragile, esoteric, dangerous. And here, yes โ€” said clearly and without apology: this misinformation is irresponsible!
What are you looking for in a painting? If you want something that matches your sofa, there are plenty of options. If you want something that looks exactly like a photo, print the photo. But if you want something that stops youโ€” Something that makes you breathe differentlyโ€” Something that reminds you why beauty mattersโ€” Then you're looking for emotion. And that's what I paint. #art #artstr #painting #isolabellart
image SILENCE AMONG THE WAVES (quartet), Oil on cradle wood panel โœ“ ORIGINAL oil painting (WITHOUT FRAME) โœ“ Size: 20x20cm each โœ“ Materials: Oil on cradle wood panel โœ“ Completed: October 11, 2025 **SILENCE AMONG THE WAVES** A quartet exploring what remains beneath restless motion. Four paintings. Four moments. One question: what does silence sound like when the sea never stops moving? --- **THE FIRST SURGE** The moment when the sea holds its breath, before everything begins to move. A tense silence, full of unspoken promises. The wave that hasn't risen yet โ€” but will. **THE BROKEN CREST** The wave that breaks โ€” free and fragile โ€” revealing within its roar another kind of stillness. Even in chaos, there is something that doesn't move. Not absence โ€” presence. **THE DISTANT SWELL** The swell you see from shore. Far enough that you can't hear it, but close enough to know it's coming. A line so thin it almost isn't there. Sometimes distance is the only way to hear silence clearly. **THE RESTING DEEP** Where everything settles. Where light sinks and reflects at once. The deepest silence โ€” the one that holds everything we cannot see anymore, but know is there. Where everything is quiet, but nothing is still. --- From surface to depth. From breath to silence. This is not one painting repeated four times. This is a single breath, told in four movements. ---- The paintings needs 3 weeks to dry, then it will be available.

image SILENCE AMONG THE CLOUDS (quartet), Oil on cradle wood panel โœ“ ORIGINAL oil painting (WITHOUT FRAME) โœ“ Size: 20x20cm each โœ“ Materials: Oil on cradle wood panel โœ“ Completed: August 23, 2025 "Silence Among the Clouds" is a quartet born to listen to the sky. Each canvas holds a fragment of time, a passage of light that turns into memory. "The Promise" opens the cycle: a gentle voice whispered by the horizon before everything begins. "The Waiting Thunder" carries the silent tension, the suspended breath of what is about to arrive. "The Fading Glow" is the lingering brightness, fragile yet persistent, a flame unwilling to yield to the dark. And finally, "The Last Ember", the dayโ€™s final spark, burning for one last instant before it disappears. Four gazes upon the same sky, four silences that intertwine. Together they tell a whole cycle, yet each painting, on its own, preserves its unique voice. ---- Your purchase will be safely packaged and protected from damages and humidity.

The scourge of online pseudo-scientific popularisers who make you realise that everything you do is wrong. Do you drink coffee in the morning? Wrong. Do you have lunch at 1 p.m.? You risk cancer. Do you pee as soon as you wake up? Old-fashioned, try a catheter. Do you eat pasta? Terrible. Are you alive? Better to die.
Someone bought a painting from me last year. They told me later: "I cry every time I look at it. Not because it's sad. But because it reminds me of something I can't put into words." That's not realism. That's resonance. And resonance is what I paint for. If a painting doesn't move you, it's just decoration. If it does, it becomes part of your life. #art #artstr #painting #isolabellart
From colors of the first layer to this. image WHERE THE DAY ENDSโ€”almost complete. Pink fading. Blue settling. Waves finding their rhythm. The birds will cross last. The moment when everything shifts but nothing has landed yet. Almost there. #art #artstr #painting #isolabellart View quoted note โ†’
People ask me to paint portraits. I always say no. Not because I can't. But because I don't paint what people look like. I paint what they feel like. And feeling doesn't have sharp edges. It has colors. Depth. Movement. If you want a photograph, hire a photographer. If you want something that makes you feelโ€” That's what I do. #art #artstr #painting #isolabellart
Ready to travel. image WHERE SHADOWS FALL โ†’ Canada Certificate of authenticity. Letter included. Packed with care. Going home to Katie โ€” the artist whose photograph inspired it. From her lens to my brush, now back to her wall. Energy flows. Art completes its circle. When she bought it, Katie wrote something beautiful: โ€œI am choosing a currency that aligns with my values and the way I see energy moving.โ€ Today, WHERE SHADOWS FALL returns to her. From her photograph, to my studio, to her home. The energy she spoke about โ€” itโ€™s real. And it keeps moving. Thank you, @Katie โŒ ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ“ฆ #art #artstr #painting #isolabellart
