Over the past year Marguerite deCourcelle (https://twitter.com/coin_artist) became one of the bitcoin community’s most renowned artists. She is best known for numerous paintings with hidden puzzles inside that unlock cryptocurrency bounties. One such painting she made in 2015 with the help of an engineer and a programmer, Mystery of Satoshi Nakamoto, contained a cryptographic treasure map to unlock a wallet with $50,000 worth of bitcoin.
A team of bitcoin enthusiasts finally cracked the code on Thursday, offering a widely celebrated milestone in the young artist’s career. Her next batch of pieces will be even more complex.
DeCourcelle recently co-founded a blockchain gaming company, Blockade Games LLC, that will take her art to the next level. She assembled an all-star team from the cryptocurrency community, including artist Diego Rodriguez, indie game industry veteran Courtney Brock, and developer Ben Heidorn, who is himself a quasi-legendary figure on fan forums for “The Legend of Zelda.” The new collective, with a staff of 15 people, plans to launch a beta version of the company’s first RPG game in May. It will be an Ethereum-based game called "Neon District.” https://twitter.com/neondistrictRPG
