Awesome Bitcoin Culture is an open list of 300+ Bitcoin artists, books, films, games and places. Artist of the day: Anik Malcolm.

Anik Malcolm spent more than 900 hours painting every one of the 21 million bitcoin as its own tiny bead. The cube that came out of it is hard to stop looking at.

He trained in London, got tired of the art world there and later in Reykjavík, and poured himself into music and street projects. Bitcoin gave all that a point. In early 2025 he asked how to show 21 million of something, his wife Una said "a cube of beads", and the maths worked: 276 cubed minus six squares of 64 beads is exactly 21,000,000.

The oil painting, 128 by 128 cm, debuted at Bitcoin 2026 in Las Vegas on April 27 to 29 and sold at the BMAG auction for 0.107 BTC. Since then he has talked about it on Bitcoin For The Arts (August 2026) and Timechain Art Magazine (September 20). Next are a bead sculpture and a planned 8 metre public monument in Prospera, Roatán, made of 21 million recycled glass beads.

Start with The Whole Entire Universe.

Awesome Bitcoin Culture is an open list of 300+ Bitcoin artists, books, films, games and places. Artist of the day: Studio Zeitwerk.

Bart Bouman makes sculptures where Bitcoin blocks become small landscapes of time. Some of them contain old euro coins he has melted in fire.

Bart is an architect, designer and filmmaker who studied in Augsburg and Konstanz. He founded the company Luxshield in 2017 and sold it in 2023, which his site calls his "Fiat Exit". As Studio Zeitwerk he works in wood, concrete and melted euro coins, and the height of each block follows how long it took to mine.

In June 2026 his "A Piece of Time" (wood, concrete, melted fiat coins and 24k gold, with a block height chosen by the owner) drew a winning bid of 0.0071 BTC at the BTC Prague Art Gallery on 13 June. On 20 September he joined Anik Malcolm and Yonat Vaks for episode 12 of The Movement of Art. I found no announced next show.

Start with "A Piece of Time": one block you pick, made solid.

Awesome Bitcoin Culture is an open list of 300+ Bitcoin artists, books, films, games and places. Artist of the day: Tynka.

Tynka draws Bitcoin as a farmers market, a family and a small kid paying for the produce. Everything starts by hand in traditional media.

Tynka joined Nostr on 9 September 2024 and kept a daily drawing habit going in public. Day 395 was 16 September 2025, live illustrating an evening of talks by women. The portfolio holds Proof of Work, Onwards and At the Market. The Fruits of the Work became the cover of the first Proof of Work Magazine edition in December 2025.

On 17 August 2026 Tynka showed a new piece made for an exhibition at a London gallery, opening the next day and running two weeks. In October came a social media break with a lot of drawing, and a note that daily posting might return. I found no announced date for the next show.

Start with At the Market, where lightning buys fresh produce and the little ones can do it too.

Awesome Bitcoin Culture is an open list of 300+ Bitcoin artists, books, films, games and places. Artist of the day: mx12art.

mx12Art paints Bitcoin by hand, on canvas and straight onto T-shirts that exist only once. He works from Kempten, Germany, and he started drawing before he could remember anyone's name.

In 2015 a car accident and a coma erased his memories. Born in Latvia, he picked up a pencil as soon as his hand worked again, and found Bitcoin while he was recovering. By 2017 he called himself a Bitcoin artist. Originals are 1/1, limited prints run in editions of 21, and he says nothing is printed on demand.

He is the artist behind Bitcoin Metropole, a Bitcoin space in Kempten that reached its first Geyser funding goal on 9 March 2026. It hosted Domain Summit Europe in August. On 11 and 12 November he shows Kunst und Bitcoin there, 11:00 to 20:00 both days, and a winter set of trading cards is open for pre-order: twelve designs, each printed 210 times, delivery expected in the second week of December.

Start with the original Between Roads and Memories! on his shop, then read his About page.

Awesome Bitcoin Culture is an open list of 300+ Bitcoin artists, books, films, games and places. Artist of the day: Lady RedHorns.

Lady RedHorns paints angels who turn down the Fiat Demon. She was born in Siberia and works from Playa del Carmen, Mexico.

Her bio says over a thousand private collections hold her work. Her X account dates from August 2023. Since then she has put physical acrylic paintings on Bitcoin as Ordinals, where the collector gets the original canvas. In May 2025 that meant Rejected Fans, 20 hand-painted skulls.

This year she ran HODL: Psychological Endurance, Ordinals with physical originals on Magic Eden, from February 27 to March 6. On September 23 and 24 she brought the Angels of Freedom series to the Midwest Bitcoin Summit in Columbus, Ohio, where three canvases opened at 1,000,000 sats each in the Bitcoin for the Arts silent auction. Her 2026 work also includes small punk skulls in a series called PUNKOMANIA. I found no announced date for her next release.

Start with The Temptation of Bitcoin Angel, a 16 by 16 inch canvas where the angel looks away from the deal, toward the Bitcoin symbol on its wing.

Awesome Bitcoin Culture is an open list of 300+ Bitcoin artists, books, films, games and places. Artist of the day: No Good Kid.

No Good Kid works behind a bandana and a pseudonym. His name is not on the cover, but his hand is on some of the Bitcoin books and zines you can actually hold.

He spent fifteen years in branding and marketing before he found Bitcoin in 2020. At meetups and conferences he found a culture under the price talk. He designed Top 10 Bitcoin F*ck Ups for Dušan Matuška and AmityAge, launched at BTC Prague 2025, and the Dark Forest zine with an essay by Peter Horváth and poetry by bitpunk.fm.

In 2026 he produced and art-directed Tamers of Entropy, the lunarpunk novel by juraj & lisa. The premium edition ships in evidence-bag packaging with an "open after reading" envelope, stickers, a USB-C key and a MeshCore device. Preorders were open by 27 April, and the book was officially released at CryptoByte in Liberec, held on 16 May. On 1 October his Nostr account published the Nostr Community Zine 10/26.

Start with Tamers of Entropy, a novel where the box is part of the story.

Awesome Bitcoin Culture is an open list of 300+ Bitcoin artists, books, films, games and places. Artist of the day: Rebel Money.

Rebel Money builds Bitcoin art out of the stuff Bitcoin wants to replace: dirty dollar bills, resin, polymer, LEDs. His line is "Mining quality dissent since Block 548777".

Vespa Libertas is a Cyber Hornet with the genesis block hex on its wings, lit by LEDs that go green, red or orange with the price and new blocks. Blank Note is a polymer banknote that shows its message only under UV light. Every piece is unique and he only takes bitcoin for them.

His latest is El Regalo (The Gift), a resin and electronics sculpture in an edition of 21, which he talked through on The Movement of Art in April. On 21 November he speaks at Bitfest in Manchester ("Fix the Money, Fix the Culture") and joins an Ordinals panel the same day. In September his Penny Orange 25 Up stamps were a lot at the Noderunners auction in Arnhem.

Start with Penny Orange: a Penny Black remake with Satoshi where the monarch was.
