The Art of Freedom

The Art of Freedom

In 2021 I created a treasure hunt using my art to promote the ideas of freedom.

Created to be traded, each artwork includes 1 or more of the 24 words needed to unlock and take the treasure containing over one full bitcoin.

Scarcity, Abundance, and The Art of the Trade

In a boycott of fiat money and the bankster-run financial system, I barter my art to meet my needs. My art serves not only as my preferred currency, but as my exclusive store of value, and it’s fun to see others begin to barter with it.

This limits the total supply that enters circulation, while the remainder is kept in the collection for exchange and display. As a result, there is often a waiting list to barter with me. However, you can find Minnaars on the secondary market and trade them for any piece in my collection as described below.

While this creates a scarcity of available supply, it simultaneously creates an abundance of exchange opportunities for owners of my work.
