I grew up being close to a family member who was an artist. As a young boy, I remember one conversation about art and how it concluded. I looked around the room and saw the TV - "is this art?" the answer seemed affirmative. Looking at a chair. Again, I asked, "is this art?x - the answer, again seemed affirmative. I pointed to a third, everyday object the fire, "is this art?" Once again the affirmative seemed to be the answer. My mind was blown.

Then came the question, "Do you think everything is art?". The answer, which made complete sense to me: politics, politics can't be said to be art.

Remembering this for the first time in over half a century I looked around the room and saw each item - the objects I take little interest in each day fresh and anew and smiled.

Then I thought about Bitcoin, could Bitcoin be art?

It's difficult, as you can't see it. But then I thought about performance art and thought - yes, Bitcoin is art also. It generates a reaction, social criticism, theatre - in the 60s a 'happening'.

Yes, in these ways Bitcoin is art.
