According to the artist who calls himself Cryptograffiti, art could be a way to help the public to understand cryptocurrencies
The San Francisco artist displayed his work at the event Bitcoin2019
where he talked to CoinDesk about the impact of art in the
cryptocurrency space and his work in South America.
“I devoted my work to try to teach about this space so more people can understand it,” he said.
Cryptograffiti also wants to spread awareness about how
cryptocurrencies can help with the current economic and social crisis in
Venezuela.
“I wanted to learn more about the situation and ultimately help out,” he said.
The artist colaborated with projects
aimed at bringing awareness to the Venezuelan situation. According to
the artist, the experience was “eye-opening” and helped redefine his
expectations around the impact of cryptocurrencies as a solution for the
South American country.
“You hear the examples of people using it to flee and retain their
savings but those are few and far between,” Cryptograffiti said “We are
trying to have people come together and help out with refugees that are
fleeing to Colombia.”
