He can process data at the speed of the combined btc network, easily 'out-thinking' even the most sophisticated of supercomputers. He quickly processes all possible outcomes within nanoseconds and reacts accordingly. He's like dr manhattan on speed.

He grows in power with popularity. The more people that know about him, the stronger, smarter, and faster he becomes. As such, he is prone to outlandish attention seeking behavior and six o clock new interviews.

He cannot be destroyed or stopped, and any damage suffered only causes his aura to fork, resulting in a strengthened and more stable btcman.

His first crime fighting mission was saving a pizza delivery guy being robbed.

If you make a site and put up some cartoons, I am sure there will be plenty of attention and donations!

That's pretty awesome man Grin  Sounds like you've got the workings of a BTC graphic novel going on.

It felt dishonest to try for a "modern-style" superhero, with body armor and gadgetry. If the Bitcoin Movement is about anything, it's about old-school waffle-knit sweatshirts with vinyl accents.

As to powers, I gave that issue a lot of thought and came up with a few alternatives:

* No powers (lame)
* Something to do with Bitcoin (obvious and lame)
* ...Pass!

When it came time to brainstorm a codename, my creative faculties were already completely spent from the above:

* Pass.

(Was the best I could manage.)

The nemesis would be pretty obvious, though: An incarnation (human or robotic) of a block chain fork. He (or she!) would be constantly trying to fork the block chain and put a stink on the entire concept of crypto-currencies. "Pass" would be summoned to beat him (or her!) up on a regular schedule, say...once per month, which would dovetail nicely with a Marvel or DC publishing schedule.

Naturally, there would be a crew of "miners", armed with pick-axes and poisoned ASICs, but here again my imagination fails me and I can't think of any stories that would involve them more deeply than a simple off-screen reference to their existence.
