Bitcoin featured in a web comic called "The Nurbs"

[thirdprize]

My web comic is just starting a bitcoin related story.  It uncovers the truth behind Satoshi and what happens when bitcoin goes "to the moon".  It is not to be taken seriously.  Here is a link to the first episode.

Do you want to publish it in every new page? or only once it reach a certain number of page? Well, so far, I'm interested on what are these truth behind satoshi you're going to add  .

[thirdprize]

I'd love a bitcoin comic but call me paranoid as that website domain name sounds way too sketchy for me to access on my network. I'll check that out with a different device that doesn't touch the domain.

The comic is called "The Nurbs" which was a 3d term i found back when it started.  Who knew you could get .XYZ as a TLD? 

It is probably going to be one or two episodes a week.  I have the first dozen plotted out and have idea for the rest.

is it the first episode?

why in the link is 124 episodes? and the other episodes talk about something else. About the picture:



For the first episode it seems to me that it is not good, no offense but what does "keys" and "door" mean? would make more sense if you had drawn a " man sitting on a chair working on computer"

It is a comic strip that I started years (123 episodes) ago.  It is just that the current adventure is going to be bitcoin related.  It is telling a story that a letter has just been delivered to someone.  All will make sense and no, there is no man sitting at a computer.  That is why I haven't drawn one.

It seems a nice and unusual start, but as the saying goes, "Don't judge a book by its title."
Overall Satoshi's character is shy so I don't think he sends messages as the postal stamp will not be remembered to indicate his address.
Also, the words "to the moon," I expected the message to be in the evening.

Have you heard about this new trojan virus - saefko? I've read that it's searching for users, who are investing in crypto and that this website is on its list.

[Haunebu]

Interesting stuff op. Checked your link in a secure manner and I liked what I saw. This entire Satoshi mystery will remain as one of the greatest unsolved mysteries of all time probably surpassing the bermuda triangle mystery in popularity levels.

You need to edit the title of this topic though(Bitcoin). Its good seeing more and more BTC related entertainment these days.

[Mandoy]

This is a good idea. I opened your link and I tried reading some pages. Though it is a very simple comic using simple computer graphics, with simple character using basic shapes. Though it may kind seems boring but there are also story lines that are good to read. I do recommend that when you make comics about bitcoin, I suggest that you make the story line exciting so that readers will have fun more reading your stuff. Good luck to your career as a comic man. Good luck to your bitcoin comic story.

[seoincorporation]

The idea about a comic sounds great, and the satoshi topic is a good start, please let us know when it gets finished, i would love to read it. And one last question, will the comic have some kind of superheroes or it will be only about bitcoin and it's environment?

It will be the existing characters from the comic doing bitcoin related things.  No superheroes.  Not too serious either.  Read the previous episodes to see what it might be like.

I don't know why these shapes are used but this just came to my mind for no reason.

When the triangle took the letter from Satoshi Nakamoto, pyramiding came up to my mind. I don't know about the circle or the other guy, that dialogue, taking the letter is like that triangle taking Bitcoin to the users, like pyramiding, a scam. Don't mind me though, this is just a canon based on what I read, it is nice though, keep this thread updated.

[putukin]

It turned out pretty funny!
I have never seen such a format about Bitcoin and cryptio at all, so like it

[zviadits]

It seemed funny to me. I think you can try to do some simple tutorials about Bitcoin trading by means of a comic

Lols, you get all kinds here don't you? Anyway, dude, art is not something I pretend to understand, but for me, all art for Bitcoin has been enjoyable, I have been quite surprised at the feedback from the public when the past recent ones also shared like you have, makes me wonder if I've really learnt anything about people!

And your web comic is no exception -- I'm enjoying it, as much as is possible to enjoy with only 2 strips out.

Tip: edit the title of this thread. Typos do tend to... drive people away;)

[Oceat]

I thought the whole thing is already finished when i visited your site. I love to read comics and manga though, you should have finished it with what exactly happens to Satoshi and how did he make/come up with this idea of creating a cryptocurrency that is the opposite of the banks.

I think it's a great idea. I like the style and the first to pages, but it's really hard to see where it goes when there are only two of them. If the aim is to promote bitcoin by appealing to facts and fantasysing about the stuff we cannot know for sure, then this project deserves respect and attention. You're saying that this comic is not to be taken seriously, but the main stance and aim is still important, since mocking bitcoin is not something we need. Good luck!

That's very simple and crisp in a single image depicting the way the network functions. One thing this will be easy understanding to the users who have already known something about bitcoin. For newbies this doesn't make sense, elaborating it with more images and a story outline seems perfect.

This could be an interesting new topic for a web comic because most of the web comic today is more on romance and adventure. Introducing bitcoin and cryptocurrency to a comic is another way to spread or share your knowledge to the other people. They can get some information while reading your web comic, and may help them to try and help the cryptos to gain more and more investors and crypto users.

[Kaller]

Pretty sure Bitcoin is in millions of webcomics by this time. I would venture to say that this is your own site, but I could be wrong. Anyway, thanks for posting this. I'm sure you made some people laugh.

[Kizaki]

If you want this to grow all I can say is buy a proper domain name and stop using free hosting websites because the link looks like suspicious and maybe a fraud.No one would be interested to read if they see your domain name

It is a proper, paid for, web site.  All the decent domains were gone and .xyz looked a bit different.  Strange but funnyhaha.com seems to be taken.

Yes it is my comic.  I also do an app for reading web comics

and, it is safe to say, none of them care about bitcoin.  You might get the odd punchline about losing money but that is it.

Well its good bitcoin on a web comic this can be a good advertisement also on bitcoin exposing what are the possibilities and even surpassed it, keep it up bro, i was planning to make a webtoon too about the what so  called little bitcoin that was the tittle.

Great idea bro! Spreading bitcoin in every multimedia available should really boost its popularity and if ever someone stumbles about it, that should be able to pique their interest in it. I know it isn't really for promotion and more for entertainment but it could still be a good advertisement for bitcoin in the webtoon area. Really fun to watch and you can even include the basics of bitcoin so that it'll be educational and entertaining at the same time. Like add some twiststo it that help it educate about itcoin while still holding the characteristics of a webtoon.

Very cool that you are using art to support and spread bitcoin. I love literature. Have you seen this? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5189267.msg52663415#msg52663415
It is like a parade through a city which is really the history of crypto. Check it out and tell me what you think.

It seems safe, I've read the comics just now and its quite entertaining. Actually the topic creator may post the image here on bitcointalk, so there's no need for other users to take risk in opening up the URL that he have. By the way, I hope the creator will soon continue the comics to add more stories and facts so it is much fun to learn not just reading text for the newbies of our forum.

I've read in your comic, that in your theory, it's a girl , satoshi and the name of the cat and Nakamoto was a nickname for her phone, this is a new twist, honestly I never imagine that Nakamoto is a girl because there are no hints from the other theories, anyway you've already said that it should not be taken seriously but what, if Satoshi Nakamoto is indeed a girl.
Anyway great reading your comic, this is the first comic I've read about Bitcoin and Nakamoto, we should create one for our children, to educate them about Bitcoin.

sorry check your link before because I avoid phishing, a little advice I see your comic web display is quite interesting but maybe it would be better for your web comics to be redesigned so that it is easy to read every episode, whether it adds some text below, well even though I know it doesn't have to be taken seriously

If I ever get as far as making a printed collection of it, I will let you know.  As it is, it works the same way as all the other web comics.  Eyes on adverts.

It is coming along well. It has been a while since I came to this thread so you have added quite a few more pages. You doing well and it looks good. I am glad people are passionate about bitcoin and its use and not all about money and profits. The thing is you talking about bitcoin as an investment. That's the first mistake people make. It is not an investment it is a technology which you can invest in but it is not an investment itself. It is, after all, a currency.

It's really a plot twist where most people would assume Nakamoto is a man. Well, the part that I like the most is that illustrates the price comparison of pizza purchased with BTC at prices ten years ago and lately. Quite flicked. And yes, this can be interesting and easy to understand the educational tool. Illustrations with attractive pictures and colours are easier to capture meaning.

Fascinating stuff operation. Checked your connection during a protected way and that i loved what I saw. This whole Satoshi secret will stay together of the simplest unsolved puzzles ever presumably outperforming the Bermuda Triangle riddle in ubiquity levels.
You have to change the title of now though(Bitcoin). Its great seeing increasingly more BTC related amusement nowadays.

Wow. I never thought someone would utilize their talent well on something that the mass reads. I never thought someone would exert a great effort in putting all elements of a comic with an interesting lead - bitcoin. This might be the start of a comic revolution having many people be interested in. It is good that while we are in total lockdown, we think of other ways to be productive.
