Hi everybody! I've made this portrait of Hal Finney with USD ripped bills during last summer.

It's the 2nd piece of a serie of portraits asking who is Satoshi Nakamoto, the mysterious creator of Bitcoin...
The "Who's Satoshi?" serie was exhibited at the collective crypto Art show Bitcoin Art (r)evolution in Sept 2018 in Paris.

See the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dj6qFP2LZgk (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dj6qFP2LZgk)

The artwork is available on OpenBazaar: https://openbazaar.com/store/QmYTXDyMNjdUSvqNc88T2VeVF3KdG7PMefnGQKrp9NZ5Tp/dollars-hal-finney-serie-whos-satoshi (https://openbazaar.com/store/QmYTXDyMNjdUSvqNc88T2VeVF3KdG7PMefnGQKrp9NZ5Tp/dollars-hal-finney-serie-whos-satoshi)

Wow it is quite an amazing piece of art, and with those ripped USD bills it is very symbolic, too. However, it is very expensive too. Good luck Pascal!

a very good portrait, I think your work will make many people know bitcoin and the crypto world, even your way is the best way to create a positive assumption about bitcoin in the public eye.

I'm sure you are a person who has a high imagination.

Was about to report you but you might actually be the real artist lol.

Anyway, did you actually use real dollar bills? If not, you might be in trouble. I'm pretty sure tampering with USD bills is illegal.

Also, how long did this take?

Thanks for all your messages and support!

It took few weeks mostly at night to do it.. and yes these are true USD bills,
about illegality I don't think about it, maybe we should ask Satoshi if it was legal to invent Bitcoin ;)

This is a tremendous and unanswered question, do I still think that this is a particular person or a specific group? Who created this picture have you seen Satoshi or is this just a portrait created from his imagination? But really this is a great picture, and it is a great masterpiece.

Why would you actually want to do that?

Only in US, and he's based in Paris as you can read on the Open Bazaar page.

Wow real amazing depiction of the fiat scam. The face some DBags in the financial world make up for their hideous motives and actions of deceit. Way to go man. Hope you hit big in mainstream crypto media atleast.

impressive.
but its a shame that many people looking at your collection seem to prefer, admire and recognise someone not involved with bitcoin innovation (dorian)..

(i mean this just for comedy purposes, not critisism)
a few people i know seen the hal finney you made and said. 'what does pierce brosnon'(previous james bond)'have to do with bitcoin'.
now i said it, i bet a few people now cant unsee it lol

Nobody thinks dorian is Satoshi, was kind of surprised anyone would want to create a portrait of the guy.


Cant unsee it lol

Oh god damn it, now I can't un-see it. Indeed, this would make a very good Pierce Brosnan portrait.

Why would you do that? He added his sources, so you wouldn't have to report him, even if he wasn't the original artist.

Wow amazing art! I looked at the price and that's worth its price for this rare portrait.

A great remembrance for Hal Finney as well, I hope that this portrait would end up to his children or relatives.

Very unusual art form! I'm just wondering how much time you spent on this?
It is worthy that this work hung in the Museum. Credit!
