Hello my dear Steemians and Art Fans,

 

 

Today I wanted to present you my new painting that I decided to do once again with acrylic paints. While searching for the topic I was thinking already to dedicate it to Bitcoin and the same time I saw the challenge of @steemitblog that was calling for the ideas in their challenge “Bitcoin is blooming”and here we are both match very well.

Bitcoin is rising

While talking about Bitcoin everyone is automatically asking if people have it or not. Those who have, are very lucky, their profit is growing with the price of Bitcoin and those who not, of course, they are dreaming to get some. When you ask whether we have it, I would say we discovered Bitcoin too late for us and it was too expensive to buy one but we have some of it. I have never thought that this is possible to possess a quarter or one eighth of, for example of a Dollar, that would be no value. But is you possess one quarter of Bitcoin you can be already happy with it. That is the difference between Cryptocurrency and fiat money.

Last couple of days we are seeing how the price of Bitcoin is climbing up, what is behind it?

In my opinion, since it was announced that PayPal entered cryptocurrency market and users can buy and sell in Bitcoin that gave a final push for all Cryptos to go up. We all know how many people using PayPal.

Actually it was funny when recently I organized some money collection to our colleagues and people were asking for my bank account to transfer money because very little of them using cash nowadays. I have told that to my teenager son and he just said: “then give them your paypall account if you do not want to share your bank details”. According him many who he knows in young age have paypall accounts.

That only means with that step PayPal made a lot of users interested now in Cryptocurrencies and that is the reason of upwards trending.

Where is the future of Bitcoin

---

 

It was very exciting to see how Bitcoin reached 19 thousand and beyond, what was your thought, we definitely thought it will be over and reach 20 thousand like in 2017.

That moment I immediately recalled 2017 when Steem was 8$!!! Just for us in the depth of our hearts we wished that this trend would pull Steem up too.

So what is the future of Bitcoin and Co?

In our opinion, it will only go up and if anyone has enough money and can effort it, you have to use moment and buy Bitcoin, you definitely will win, maybe not like the guys who bought Bitcoin few years ago but it is definitely a good saving in compare to fiat money.

CryptoArt

Now coming back to my painting, I thought about combination Crypto especially Bitcoin with one of the famous Masterpieces of Art and one of them of course is Vincent Willem van Gogh, whose works I really love. His “Starry night” is genius, it is simple but very recognizable and that is the trademark of genius and unique personality.

Therefore, I thought to create a combination of both in my favourite motif, sailing boat in the search of Bitcoin. People in the past do not know what is it but somehow heard about that and now decided to sail away and find it.

 

So here it is my work

 

 

My step-by-step process:
