比特幣會議美術館邀請藝術家為比特幣的作品定價

自2019年以來，比特幣會議美術館邀請藝術家做一些激進的事情 - 至少按照傳統的藝術世界標準：將他們在比特幣的作品定價，而不是隱喻，而是方法。

Since 2019, the Bitcoin Conference Art Gallery has invited artists to do something radical—at least by traditional art world standards: price their work in bitcoin, not as a metaphor but as a method.

What began as a modest experiment in peer-to-peer art sales has, by 2025, evolved into a growing body of work that reflects the movement’s shifting values, symbols, and cultural debates. With over 65 BTC in cumulative art sales, the gallery hasn’t just challenged legacy pricing—it’s built a visual archive of Bitcoin’s ascent. To price a painting in sats is to assert that value can be sovereign—that creative labor need not pass through fiat institutions or legacy art systems to be real.

到2025年，在點對點藝術銷售中的一個適度實驗開始，已經演變成越來越多的作品，反映了運動的不斷變化的價值，符號和文化辯論。該畫廊的累積藝術銷售額超過65 BTC，不僅挑戰了舊式定價，而且建立了比特幣上升的視覺檔案。在SAT中進行繪畫的價格就是斷言價值可以是主權的 - 創造性的勞動不必通過菲亞特機構或舊式藝術系統是真實的。

This year’s Bitcoin 2025 Las Vegas exhibition features some of the most ambitious pieces yet: monumental paintings and mosaics, hand-carved relics, poster campaigns, and recursive digital portraits. The ten artists featured in this Q&A span diverse media and intent, yet share a common urgency. Whether invoking Renaissance myth or elevating meme culture to the scale of temple fresco, they explore value—economic, symbolic, and spiritual. These aren’t just observers of the Bitcoin movement—they’re shaping its iconography.

今年的比特幣2025拉斯維加斯展覽展出了一些迄今為止最雄心勃勃的作品：紀念性繪畫和馬賽克，手工雕刻的文物，海報運動和遞歸數字肖像。這位問答環節多樣的媒體和意圖中的十個藝術家卻具有共同的緊迫性。無論是引用文藝復興神話還是將模因文化提升到壁畫的規模，它們都探索了價值 - 經濟，象徵和精神。這些不僅僅是比特幣運動的觀察者 - 它們塑造了其肖像畫。

In the following Q&A, ten artists share their perspectives on their work, offering insights into what they created for B25.

在下面的問答中，十位藝術家分享了他們對工作的看法，從而提供了對他們為B25創建的東西的見解。

Most works featured in this interview will be available through the conference auction, hosted in partnership with Scarce.City, where each piece will be priced natively in Bitcoin. The full preview gallery can be viewed here.

這次採訪中的大多數作品都將通過與Scarce.City合作舉辦的會議拍賣，在該會議拍賣中，每件作品都將在比特幣中定價。可以在此處查看完整的預覽庫。

Bitcoin Apex has become one of the more incisive visual commentators in the Bitcoin cultural sphere, with contributions ranging from exhibitions at Bitcoin Amsterdam to the 2024 release of his book Apex: Bitcoin, Art, and the Myth of Value, which maps the evolving mythos of Bitcoin through hyper-detailed drawings. For B25 Las Vegas, he unveils a new original—meticulous in detail and symbolic density, rendered in a Dürer-esque style that echoes the intensity of traditional engraving. Apex has previously expressed hesitation about selling originals, making this auction a rare and meaningful opportunity.

比特幣頂點已成為比特幣文化領域中最敏銳的視覺評論員之一，從阿姆斯特丹比特幣的展覽到他的書Apex的2024年發行的貢獻：比特幣，藝術和價值神話，繪製了比特幣不斷發展的比特幣的神話。對於B25拉斯維加斯，他推出了一種新的原件 - 詳細的和象徵性的密度，以杜勒風格的風格呈現，呼應傳統雕刻的強度。 Apex此前曾表示猶豫不決，這使拍賣成為罕見且有意義的機會。

Q: What has it meant to live as an artist after adapting to a Bitcoin standard—and what has it meant to you to value your time and labor in sats?

問：適應比特幣標准後，作為藝術家生活意味著什麼？珍惜您的時間和勞動在SATS中意味著什麼？

BITCOIN APEX: These are interesting questions. Being a Bitcoin artist has completely changed my life. It’s changed who I am, how I spend my time, and made me realize that through my creative work, I’m encouraging others to get creative and engage with Bitcoin in their own unique way.

比特幣頂點：這些是有趣的問題。成為比特幣藝術家完全改變了我的生活。它改變了我的身份，我如何度過時間，並使我意識到，通過我的創意工作，我鼓勵其他人以自己獨特的方式獲得創造力並與比特幣互動。

In almost three years of actively creating pencil drawings as a self-employed Bitcoin artist, focused on this paradigm shift influencing so many aspects of society, I’ve been delighted to hear from many Bitcoiners (especially on social media) who’ve either started using Bitcoin artistically for the first time, returned to drawing or painting after a long pause, or found a new path to Bitcoin-related self-employment.

In almost three years of actively creating pencil drawings as a self-employed Bitcoin artist, focused on this paradigm shift influencing so many aspects of society, I've been delighted to hear from many Bitcoiners (especially on social media) who've either started using Bitcoin artistically for the first time, returned to drawing or painting after a long pause, or found a new path to Bitcoin-related self-employment.

For me, it’s still a special and surreal experience to walk this path. After more than 10 years working in a supermarket, filling fruit crates and stocking shelves, I can hardly believe I now have this privilege.

對我來說，走這條路仍然是一種特殊而超現實的經歷。在一家超市工作了10多年之後，我幾乎不敢相信我現在擁有這種特權。

The freedom that comes with this work is unmatched. Not only in the act of drawing itself—shaped by diverse influences like historical architecture, spontaneous thoughts, or meditation, which I believe is an endless source of ideas—but also in the freedom to plan and live my life beyond drawing and beyond Bitcoin, in line with my own interests and wishes. Compared to the time before I was self-employed, it’s a completely new outlook on life, and I’m grateful for it every day.

這項工作帶來的自由是無與倫比的。我不僅在繪畫本身的行為中 - 形狀受歷史建築，自發思想或冥想等多樣的影響，我認為這是無限的思想來源 - 而且還符合我自己的利益和願望，可以自由地計劃和生活，超越繪畫和超越比特幣。與自僱人士的時間相比，這是一種全新的生活前景，我每天都為此而感激。

Bitcoin isn’t just a theme in my art, it’s also how I get paid. In my opinion, accepting bitcoin is the best way to stack it. I gain multiple advantages: I support the Bitcoin circular economy, attract customers who want to pay in sats, and no longer rely on exchanges or apps to acquire bitcoin. That’s something I really value.

比特幣不僅是我的藝術中的主題，而且是我獲得報酬的方式。我認為，接受比特幣是堆疊它的最佳方法。我獲得了多個優勢：我支持比特幣循環經濟，吸引想要在SATS中付款的客戶，並且不再依靠交易所或應用程序來獲取比特幣。那是我真正珍視的東西。

The first time I received bitcoin for my artwork, it felt like real money—even though I’d long understood its superior properties. There’s a difference between using Bitcoin and simply holding it. Spending or receiving it makes its potential real in a new way.

我第一次收到比特幣的藝術品，感覺就像是真錢，儘管我長期以來一直了解其出色的特性。使用比特幣與簡單地持有它之間有區別。支出或收到它的可能性以新的方式實在。

The last three years feel like a decade. So much has happened; exhibitions, travel, and countless learning experiences that continue to shape me. But one of the most meaningful aspects is knowing that over 3,000 prints of my drawings now hang in homes across 50 countries. So many unique people, all intersecting through Bitcoin, united in a shared belief: building a better world, especially for future generations.

過去三年感覺就像十年。發生了很多事情；展覽，旅行和無數的學習經歷繼續塑造我。但是，最有意義的方面之一是知道我的圖紙上有3,000多張印刷品現在掛在50個國家的房屋中。如此眾多的獨特人物，都通過比特幣相交，以共同的信念結合在一起：建立一個更好的世界，尤其是對於子孫後代。

Salvador Dalí once said, “A true artist is not someone who is inspired, but someone who inspires others.”
