Well it's really a good art and at the same time it is a great way to spread bitcoin awareness and not to mention the political message the painting is trying to portray. I took my time looking at the picture and could not see where the bitcoin is. Good work for the artist, it's an amazing and genius master piece.

That is uncanny artwork and with a hidden message for those who decided to find it within the mural.
Just magnifique! Cool
Yes I agree. Me personally I didn't see the sign of bitcoin there. Just this girl who is waving this flag. It is just not good because I miss the opportunity to join in this and have the chance to win that BTC. If I have the chance to go in paris I will try to visit that amazing art.

That's really an impressive work with creativity that is much needed to grow high in this competitive market. The artwork itself a big attraction, a key for a $1000 puzzle within the art is interesting. These kind of activities needs to be supported and such kind of promotions will help people know about bitcoin. Congrats to the winners of the puzzle.

I am impressed by this art, a very beautiful picture. I also do not see anything there, but it would be interesting to solve this riddle. and a very beautiful slogan in the article that motivates.

But painting your QR on a wall can be risky in the long run, some thieves can just replace it with their own address very quickly. So, if anyone plans to donate, verify that the scanned address indeed belongs to the artist.

It's an IQ test. If you can't do basic level verification, you have to learn it the hard way, which mostly means that you have to lose a buck or two.

On top of that, those who donate are very likely anti state Bitcoiners that know how things work, because it's very unlikely that random Timmies will donate any amount to something that works on their nerves. Average joes are not keen with everything that's happening over there, so they won't throw around with pocket change to "support" something they don't support.

How are we going to achieve mass adoption if Bitcoin keeps being "an IQ test"? All the things that exploded in popularity in past years were always foolproof and very easy to use. Also, if someone gets scammed, it doesn't necessarily mean that they are dumb, experience is a huge factor in security. Some people lose their coins because Bitcoin experience is so different from what they are used to, and they haven't spent enough time to acquire knowledge about crypto.

Yes, amazing find and well worth the effort, not to mention the political message. Also just put out the news earlier today on our site.

We'll always support the work of you and the likes of you.  With all the corporate talk and suits surrounding Bitcoin, always nice to get some refreshing reminder of Bitcoin's ideological roots.

Vive le Bitcoin!

It's cool when cryptoenthusiasts make such projects. It takes a lot of attention from usual people who aren't connected to crypto. I think that such painters help all cryptocommunity .

I really don't see where Bitcoin is in this picture.I remember having a bitcoin decryption picture a few months ago, but I am not good at it at all. It is too difficult for me to crack these passwords. LOL.

Hello Pascal! Really, really glad to see you continue your work since we last caught up - please don't hesitate to contact me and or Amelia in the future (usually we're more responsive on Telegram) if you are thinking of doing some drum up prior to the art being made (maybe more exposure and support?). In any case, you seem to be doing well on your own. Ever thinking of spreading wings? Long live, live long!

La Liberté guidant le peuple (Liberty leading the people) 2019 is inspired by the famous painting of Delacroix realised in 1830.
With the Yellow vests movement who began in the end of 2018, it was the right time to do a contemporary version of the original painting, with a little secret inside:

This street art fresco is hidding a Bitcoin puzzle.

For the 10th birthday of the genesis block, I painted this fresco in Paris with 0,28btc ($1000) puzzle in it.

Here's the public key: 1NqPwPp7hEXZ3Atj77Ue11xAEMmXqAXwrQ

You can solve a part from your desk at home... But to solve the puzzle enterly, you must be physicaly in front of the mural.

Here you can see the HQ picture of the entire fresco: https://i.imgur.com/BOiXPzl.jpg

This kind of projects has been possible only with your support with btc donations, you can give your support to the future projects on my personnal BTC adress:

and crowdfunding:  https://www.patreon.com/pascalboyart

Big thanks to Alistair Milne for the sponsoring of this project by giving the funds for the puzzle.
