We all no that Satoshi Nakamoto was a well know pseudonymous creator of bitcoin, which was know to be the world first famous decentralized cryptocurrency in history, which I saw this artwork that captures a clear picture of choice; this mean there is a “System that provides real value” vs “A System that extracts from the people claiming to help them” a little breakdown well all no that Bitcoin offers real value while it’s all clear that the Banks eat money and still leave us thirsty, that image implies many important benefits that Bitcoin has done it gives you the water when you are tastes, not charity’s it hands you the glass of water, but the Banks are drains value and still expect you to drink from empty glass
Please note that This quote is not from Satoshi Nakamoto, was just trying to share a little understanding from the artwork
What the images shows ( symbolism-in) are;
-
We are talking about Bitcoin vs the Banking system illustration- The left man was labeled as “Satoshi Nakamoto” which is representing Bitcoin ideology meaning it (Decentralized fair money fairness and also financial freedom, in a simple context the man in on the right symbolizes the traditional banking’s system which are always consuming much value while there giving very little value.
- The right man was labeled “The Banks” which is representing the ideology of the traditional banks and fiat currencies. Just take a look Bitcoin decentralized and transparent nature, which we no the banking model is built on control dependency and value extraction.
- “Water” in real life water already is a symbol of “value” and “life support” in the economy Without it, nothing grows, nothing survives, and nothing can flourish. In the economic metaphor of this artwork, “water” represents value itself the lifeline that sustains societies, fuels progress, and keeps people alive.
- The little Bitcoin icon in the empty glass is known as “value in transparent systems” It shows that Bitcoin holds value openly—where it can be seen, verified, and trusted by everyone.
Fiat cash been stuffed in the other man’s mouth which is trying to tell us how the Banks are consuming/ and extracting money from the people while struggling to “Drink” value from it
Illustration: a man labeled “Satoshi” offers a glass with a Bitcoin symbol; another man labeled “Bank” stuffs cash in his mouth while holding a small glass of water. The image contrasts Bitcoin as nourishing value and banks as extracting money.
