“200 Bitcoins” Represents First Contemporary Artwork for Digital Currency

The Dollar was painted many times, by John Habele, Otis Keye, Victor Dubreuil, John F. Peto just to name a few.

William Michael Harnett painted the dollar so realistically that he was arrested for counterfeiting.

But nobody connected money and creativity so consequently like Andy Warhol. His Print “200 one dollar bills” was sold for many times its face value.

Bitcoin is a rather young currency and hasn’t experienced such an endorsement by an contemporary artist, until now. German artist Kuno Goda has been inspired by Andy Warhol’s print and the Bitcoin movement. The result is “200 Bitcoins”, selling for 199 BTC.
