Main scene - The Genesis
The main scene in the center of the composition shows Satoshi himself introducing Bitcoin technology to the world. Depicted at the moment of digging block 0 on 3 January 2009, he holds the physical manifestation of Bitcoin in his right hand. The logo became recognizable to the entire world in less than 10 years. His left hand remains hidden to the world. In one of his later emails he mentions
"I've moved on to other things. It's in good hands with Gavin and everyone."
The hidden left hand symbolizes this another project of his that he focused on afterwards. Satoshi is standing on a podium. On the front face of which is the hash of the Genesis block. This is the first step of the staircase that 13 years later millions of people have taken. Approximately every 10 minutes all the participants in the network take another step up, and when looking back one sees the tremendous evidence of the work we have done over the the last 13 years.
On his sides are drawn 7 of the earliest developers who helped Satoshi. Somewhere under the mask I have depicted Hal Finney, Gavin Andresen,Laszlo Hanyecz, Martti Malmi, Jeff Garzi and others. Some are represented under the bear, symbolizing their position on the project, criticizing the direction of development, while others that have remained true to Bitcoin are positioned under the Bull side. ( The RIGHT side ). The Bull and the Bear symbolize the ongoing emotional balance between skeptics and optimists about Bitcoin technology.
The physical touch of the creator's robes by the first devlopers is a reference to the online communication these people had through the emails whose notes have remained as an integral part of the early history of Bitcoin. They are presented as angels because despite their further criticism towards the protocol, their interest and contribution in the early days is of a great importance.
The Bear and the Bull in constant battle.
The very early stage of the process. I made a compositional project of which I drew the figures before immortalizing them on the original. It is unthinkable to start such a complex and large project without having a draft on which you clarify your project. Later I will upload a picture of the sketch I experimented on.
Not counting the time I spent on the rough sketch, just working on the orginal has taken me about ~22 hours of work so far. This includes the cells of the individual scenes, drawing of the main scene, the bull and the bear as well as the whole frieze frame.
