New Statue of Satoshi in Switzerland

[DaNNy001]

Nice thing to see a new Statue of Satoshi situated in Lugano, that signifies the presence of bitcoiners in the city. Also, Lugano is a fast growing Bitcoin hub and over 100 merchants use the lightning network for payment. So, having a sculpture of Nakamoto there will invite more crypto users to the country. The image shows transparency, and anonymity, a true explanation of Bitcoin founder.

Switzerland as a whole is a Bitcoin friendly country especially with the city of lugano, I could remember one time when I saw in the Bitcoin magazine when the major of the actually bought some coffee and paid with Bitcoin as shops and business have implemented Bitcoin as a payment method which is a major progress in terms of Bitcoin world adoption. The new statue of Satoshi further verifies the true friendly nature of that community towards Bitcoin.

That is the new statue of Satoshi Nakamoto revealed in Lugano Switzerland.

Design looks cool, depending on the perspective, the statue will disappear, just like Satoshi himself. Also it pertains on Bitcoin's privacy and (psuedo)-anonymity.

And this could be the second statue dedicated to him, Three years ago, Hungary became the first nation to build a Statue of Satoshi.

This is really cool and nice despite that it has no direct discripancy of who Satoshi Nakamoto is, but atleast it represents Satoshi anonymity and his vision. It's a sign of honour to our genius it will be a tourism or tourist attractions centre for those who will like to know about Satoshi and bitcoin.

This is an amazing and good initiative. I'm curious is this organize and done by the government of Switzerland or this is an initiative by the civilians?
If every I will visit Switzerland, my dream country, I will take a picture here and next to Hungary just for this statue.
For sure other countries will follow what Switzerland and Hungary did.

Well, that's what Craig S. Wright's face now, eh?

Jokes aside, based on a quick google search, around 14% of the total population in Switzerland is holding any cryptocurrency: LINK. I guess having a statue increases the adoption because many will be curious on what the statue is and what's it being represented hence, many might try and do some research about cryptocurrency or even just Bitcoin only. Will we be seeing more of these in the future in different countries? I mean Switzerland has been known for being a crypto-friendly country so, I guess those other countries that are also crypto-friendly as well might do it?

Whatever the case is, I can't believe that that's now the face of Fake-toshi.

Brilliant idea, what a truly amazing design, uniquely the faceless statue can only be seen clearly from the side, while people looking from the front or back will see it vaguely, because there is a gap in the design, the theme of the design depicts the mysterious figure of Satoshi. Created by Italian artist Valentina Picozzi, the statue captures both the mystery and the enduring legacy of Satoshi. It has not been decided where the statue will be displayed but it will remain part of the permanent collection of the Parco Ciani in Lugano.

The video can be seen on the X satoshigallery account controlled by Valentina Picozzi. @satoshigallery

nice sculpture artwork. but for me, or even laymen would definitely call it a statue of a person holding a laptop. or better yet, it would be called a statue of an IT expert. because I don't see any bitcoin accent there. or at least there is a bitcoin logo, to depict satoshi nakamoto.

I've watched a video of it, and I really like the way it's made. It's abstract enough not to suggest anything specific about who Satoshi is, and the whole thing about perspective and Satoshi being almost invisible is smart and lovely. Switzerland is a beautiful country, and the place where the statue is displayed looks lovely. It's a great balance that contemporary art is sometimes lacking: the balance between abstractness and specificity.
