Some of the largest collectors in the ecosystem have been attracted to the Fake Rares art collection, and Ghostface, along with Rare Scilla, currently have the highest priced piece which sold for $250,000 last fall. Well over 100 artists have contributed over 500 original works of art worth over 200 BTC valued around $4 million to this collection.

The Fake Rares collections catalyzed the current wave of NFTs being built on BTC and XCP by modeling the originalRare Pepetrading frenzy from 2016-2017. This collection was also the first to bring MP4 files and music to bitcoin – like that of Ghostface Killah – throughCounterparty’stokenXCP. While most are conceptually aware of NFTs being built on BTC, the mention of XCP might be a new concept.

In short, XCP is a way to tokenize information through a layer two application by embedding data into bitcoin transactions. XCP is not a sidechain, nor is it a competitor chain. It cannot exist without the Bitcoin protocol or BTC as its primary asset.

The gallery opens from 11 a.m ET each day to late night at 80 W Broadway, Manhattan NY and will be running next-door to Scare City’s PEPE is ART gallery which will feature Rare Pepe grails and other modern Pepe creations. This event was planned in conjunction with the Fake Basel art gallery which ran from June 15-19 in Basel, Switzerland which also featured digital and physical Pepe art.

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?
"Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?" is dedicated to the mysterious creation of Bitcoin, and acts as the showcase artwork within Javier Arrés’ exploratory series "Bitcoin, The Origin". "Who is the creator of Bitcoin?" The artist, Arrés, explores this question, and the feelings of doubt and mystery that accompany it, through his unique artistic language. An unknown, an enigma. It should be remembered that the name Satoshi Nakamoto is a pseudonym of Bitcoin's author or authors and gives us little insight into its true creator. For this Visual Toy, Arrés uses the signature claw machine, his famous half-operation, to symbolize our collective ignorance and unconfirmed belief: As soon as it has the stuffed animal within its grasp and appears to have solved the puzzle, the animal escapes again, and again. At present, there are three more public and studied possibilities who are either believed to be the creators of the currency or who directly claim the creation of it. It may be all or none of them, yet these three personalities leave us clues which are an important part of this interesting enigma. For this moment, it will remain unknown... In this artwork, Arrés elevates the claw machine from the apparatus, to an iconic pop art object serving as an important element to the Bitcoin creation narrative. Action is everywhere, with each movement serving an iconographical or metaphorical purpose related directly to cryptocurrency: Various ups and downs, roller coasters, mining points, robot, coins and more speak to a sense of hope, risk, mystery, randomness and possibility of pay out. Hundreds of manically thought out details make this creation one of the artist’s most complex Visual Toys to date. ------- "Bitcoin, The Origin" is a set of two Visual Toys, titled "Who is Satoshi Nakamoto" and "It’s Alive!" which reflect and explore the mystery and enigmas behind the creation of Bitcoin. Arrés presents these proposals to us in his signature style, full of iconography, fantasy, maniacal animations and a panoply of details (both subtle and overt) which simultaneously fascinate, hypnotize, and narrate this historical milestone through the singular vision of the artist. Through this series, Arrés freezes a crucial moment of cryptocurrency history, taking a still photo under his vision and turning it into two unique crypto artworks. ---- More info about Javier Arrés: https://javierarres.com/about.html
