It all started a year ago during a crypto fever run. A bitcoin coin is cool, but you know what&#x27;s better? A gigantic Bitcoin bronze.<p>At first with an out-of-scale wooden version, then things started getting serious. 3D printer, silicon, and molten copper. Making such a piece with a mirror finish requires fine art expertise and took several trials.<p>The sculpture is signed by the foundry and encrusted with the bitcoin payment transaction hash on its side. It is close to impossible to counterfeit such a piece. Each foundry has its own signature based on the shares of each metal composing the bronze. Moreover, being handmade, two sculptures will never look exactly the same.<p>What do you think?
