This piece looks absolutely gorgeous at any size.
"₿e Your Own ₿anker" is part of a series, where I use conventional money (which to me is like a giant running joke on it's last legs now) to express the Bitcoin mindset, and where I play and mess about with fiat, inspiring your friends and family through beautiful art, to question "What is Money?" and go fall down the rabbit hole and wake tf up! I also love, how by using the fiat shitcoinery in art, inadvertently, the transformation into scarce art gives it exponentially more value than it intrinsically had to begin with. I love the irony of that. It's an incredibly liberating feeling to cut up a lie. Everytime it gives me pure joy!
The Energy of money is moving into a new era - it is shifting into the least physical representation we've ever had of it. The greatest and purest energetic form of money is riding on the algorithmic frequency that is Bitcoin.

The platinum leafing is a delicate process that takes time and attention to detail and is done with a lot of love and care.
H.M.P. means "hand modified print". Usually, a ltd edition series is only signed by the artist - and that's it. Here, each individual artwork is also hand leafed with precious metals. It is a super delicate process and usually takes 3-5 layers of metal leafing to get a nice shine.
Imitation gold or silver can be printed (it's called foil), whereas precious metals cannot go through a printing marchine, it can only be done by hand. This individual modification is what sets these artworks apart from the rest.

Although this art print is printed with UV colour safe inks, it is not recommended to hang it in a spot that get's strong direct sunlight during the day. If you must, then I recommend using UV safe glass as a double precaution, when you get it framed locally. Museum glass, is AMAZING, and also more pricey. You can't see the glass at all as it has zero reflections, it is the absolute best glass if you want to go all out.
When unwrapping and handling the print, please take care, with clean hands or using white gloves. Do NOT roll it in the opposite direction to the natural curvature of the paper (the same direction you received it in). In stead, I suggest asking the framers to flatten it for a day or 2, before they frame it.As paper has memory, try not to keep it rolled up for too long (a couple of weeks at most) - having it framed will be the best way to preserve and protect it.
