Auction Details:

Available in this auction are three suites. The top bidder will receive their preferred suite which includes three pieces; each hand-signed on the box by both artists. All suites have consecutive serials, with each piece having one of three unique eyes framed on the reverse... i.e. serials 01, 02, and 03 are the first suite, 04, 05, and 06 the second… with 97, 98, & 99 being the last suite.

The second and third highest bidders will each receive a complete suite, and can select (in that order) their preferred serial numbers from the remaining suites. Tied bids go to the first bidder. If you placed multiple winning bids with the goal of ONLY purchasing a single suite, please email aryan@scarce.city to remove your lower bids.

Kialara's new edition emerges from a partnership with the renowned bitcoin artist cryptograffiti. This latest design, continuing the self-custodial legacy of the previous Guardians edition, includes a specially designed code for users to securely encode their own bitcoin private keys or seed phrase into an elegant cold-storage device.

Featured in this edition is cryptograffiti's new work, BC Coin, a creative reinterpretation and tribute to Bitcoin’s original logo designed by Satoshi Nakamoto, officially the first piece of Bitcoin art ever made. The work is a meticulous recreation of the logo using fiat bill segments from over 20 different world currencies color-matched to each pixel of the original image. More than homage, It's an act of rebellion and reconstruction, challenging traditional views on money's sanctity and signaling a shift towards a new financial paradigm.

The act of cutting up money, traditionally seen as nearly blasphemous, here represents the artist's empowerment with an act that underscores everything that needs to be torn apart and rearranged towards the creation of a new financial paradigm.

The Kialara design incorporates the eye at its center, unmistakably reminiscent of the Eye of Providence on the iconic one-dollar bill—a symbol often associated with surveillance and control. In this context, the eye on a self-custodial Kialara piece signifies the return of control to the individual, away from the central banks' issued currencies.

This collaboration between two pivotal artists in the early Bitcoin art scene fulfills a long-standing community request, celebrating a deep friendship and mutual admiration. Their work, including pieces like The Builders and Minedala, paying homage to the mining devices underpinning Bitcoin, and Thug Life and United Nodes of Bitcoin, trifling with the dollar bill showcases unconscious yet significant thematic parallels.

Limited to just 99 units produced in total (33 suites), these are a must-have for enthusiasts and collectors alike. Secure your piece of Bitcoin history now.
