The world of Bitcoin’s arts was hit by the fact that Bitcoin’s pseudonym creator Nakamoto Atoshi disappeared from his current home in Lugano, Switzerland. Satoshigarely, who curated and exhibited the work, announces a reward of 0.1 BTC to anyone who can help recover a stolen statue, further deepening the mystery of covering both Nakamoto and this unique work of art.
The atshigallery team has strengthened their resolve to win X following the theft, provide rewards for their recovery, and place 21 Satoshi statues around the world. The mission aims to echo the 21 million coin limit for Bitcoin, reinforcing the principles of rarity, decentralization and destruction. The gallery wrote:
“You can steal our symbols, but you can never steal our souls.”
Embodying the spirit of Nakamoto At
The statue was celebrated not only as a physical monument, but also because of its conceptual brilliance. Designed to embody the elusive creator spirit of Bitcoin, this piece is played in perception and meaning, and appears invisible from the front.
From the side, the form appears, reminding viewers that Satoshi may be hidden, but always exists within the spirit of Bitcoin, capturing how Nakamoto’s indelible shock remains at the very heart of the crypto movement.
Support from the Bitcoin Community
Messages of support are poured from around the world, and members of the Bitcoin community express solidarity. For many, statues are more than just art. It is a symbol of resilience, innovation and the quest for ongoing financial sovereignty.
Tuur Demeester, Blockstream Advisor and Bitcoin OG commented:
“It’s very sad… the next person should be in some cubics of granite.”
The founder of Tip Preston Pysh simply said:
“Even his statue will disappear…”
As the search continues, the story of Satoshi (people and statues) reaffirms that some mysteries in the digital age only become stronger in all attempts to erase them.
If you have information about the location of the Nakamoto AT statue, we recommend that you contact the Atshigallery team.
