An open-source solution giving Bitcoin artists, makers, and independent creators their own customizable, self-hosted website complete with e-commerce and auction tools to showcase and sell handmade, Bitcoin-inspired artworks directly to collectors. Because an independently hosted site is the only place you fully control your content and presentation and the only place immune to deletion or censorship, it becomes your forever home on the web.
The goal is to give artists and creators an independent, customizable website that they host themselves. This way, there is no risk of censorship.
Principles & ValuesWe align with UNESCO’s definition of artistic freedom the right to imagine, create and distribute diverse cultural expressions free of governmental censorship, political interference or pressures of non-state actors, and the ability of individuals to access diverse cultural expressions
