An original drawing to commemorate the price of bitcoin on the day of creation. These art wallets are perfect for birthday gifts or to start a collection that chronicles the price of bitcoin (and the decline of the dollar) over time. For this series, there will never be more than 10 made for a particular date and, once a date passes, I will do no more for that date.
Each Art Wallet contains an unfunded bitcoin address and corresponding private key.
The pieces were originally sold with a Repurchase Policy: The Bitcoin Mint (BitcoinMint.com) will buy back this original artwork at any time for $100 U.S. Dollars (or $100 worth of bitcoin at the time of tender). The piece must be in good condition with the holographic seal undisturbed. The website has since gone offline, but you can probably contact trader Steve though his bitcointalk account (Trader Steve)
How these pieces are created:[edit | edit source]
1. An unfinished master is created by hand-drawing the $100 Bill in black pencil/ink (with parts left unfinished).
2. This is then reproduced at a professional printer.
3. These drawings are then hand-finished with additional black work, colored pens and pencils.
4. Signatures are added to the face of the bill.
5. The date, bitcoin exchange value, hologram & bitcoin keys are added below the drawing.
6. Once everything is complete, I add my final signature to the right of the bill.
