If you’re lucky enough to be attending MagicalCryptoConference in NYC on May 11th (I am unfortunately not one of those people), you’ll be seeing a postcard sized version of this fun little alternative-art poster I designed for them in your swag bag. In case you don’t know what the official MCC cast of characters actually […]

I was saddened to hear the news about Adam West’s passing as I was boarding my flight to San Francisco earlier today, so I spent a few hours in the air working on this tribute piece. Campy as it was, West’s performance as the caped crusader is and always will be unforgettable. “Of what use […]

I’ve been holding Monero for a few months now and over the last week it tripled its price from the low $40s to a high of over $130. I didn’t know all that much about the currency when I bought it, other than it was one of a handful of privacy-oriented coins that were focusing […]

This cartoon was commissioned by Coindesk for their year-end Most Influential People in Crypto 2017 feature. Check out their interview with Bitcoin Sign Guy here. The anonymous hero who photobombed Janet Yellen with his handwritten sign became an unexpected symbol for the rambunctious armchair revolutionaries that rallied around Bitcoin this year. I struggled with the concept […]

The John Wick films are amongst the most inventive actioners of the last decade, and I’ve been waiting for awhile now to parody the gold coins they use as the currency of the underworld. This is a simple little painting, but I’m pretty proud of the layout and color palette. The whole thing took 5.5 […]

I think this Cryptomatic poster design is my favorite of all the stuff I’ve done this year. It features a water dragon dancing inside an exploded view of their famous Bitcoin Envoy watch, and blends two of my favorite things: my unhealthy fascination with drawing complicated machines, and my love of graceful organics. My drawing […]

I rarely talk about my startup here in my art gallery, but the stuff that we’re working on recently is just too exciting not to talk about. Bloom has been building crypto tools for the remittance industry for nearly 3 years now and this year we’re going to expand our reach to include the massive […]

Jacob works at Bitcoin.com, lives in China, and is a staunch BCH supporter*. We’re both fans of Bruce Lee, and this cartoon is an amalgam of a couple of his classic movie posters from the 1970’s. * I’m personally not much of a BCH guy, but I think that everyone in crypto should have access […]

Lots of new Cryptopops coming up soon! This Japanese Fortune Cat (which we see more often in Chinese restaurants these days) is the second entry in my #CryptoForChange  series for BX8.io, my startup BloomX’s ongoing ICO. I’m rendering a whole collection of Asian iconography and am really excited to share the rest of the illustrations […]

This cartoon was commissioned by Coindesk for their year-end Most Influential People in Crypto 2017 feature. Check out their writeup on Jihan Wu here. It says a lot that in the one year that I’ve been drawing crypto-cartoons, this is the FOURTH time I’ve cartooned Jihan Wu. (See Antpool Switches to Bitcoin Unlimited in March, Madonna of the […]
