We are excited to announce our newest collaboration with SWL. SWL has long been providing artists with a platform to showcase their passion for art on the streets. Genesis Block combines SWL’s passion for art with the growing love for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency in Hong Kong. With this collaboration, we have released a series of artwork revolving around cryptocurrency. We hope to combine the complexity of cryptocurrency and the abstract nature of art to create something reminiscent for the community. One of Genesis Block’s primary goals is to educate and engage more people about the cryptocurrency community. So we see art as a perfect segue to bring cryptocurrency to people’s daily lives and make it more relatable. For us, cryptocurrency is much more than its potential financial gains, the culture that exists behind cryptocurrency is something we want to promote.
Satoshi Nakamoto Mural


Genesis Block Mural


For this collaboration, we created two main pieces of art. One revolving around Bitcoin’s founder, Satoshi Nakamoto, and the other focusing on an “glitchy” interpretation of cryptocurrencies. We chose to use Satoshi Nakamoto since he is synonymous to the idea of Bitcoin. While Satoshi Nakamoto’s true identity is still unknown, we chose a picture of Dorian Nakamoto to represent Satoshi. Most Bitcoin enthusiasts still recognize Dorian Nakamoto as he resonates well with the Bitcoin community. For us, we hope to use this art piece to engage the community to ask questions like “who is this guy”, “what is Bitcoin”, and “who is the real Satoshi Nakamoto”. We hope by showcasing these murals; we can further engage the community to cryptocurrency and allow more people to see the underlying beauty of crypto.
