Bitcoin Festival · Community mural

Berlín, El Salvador

An offer to lend a hand became a sign for the festival.

A sign, made on the spot

I made this mural at the Bitcoin Community Center in Berlín, El Salvador, for the Bitcoin Festival. I showed up and asked if there was anything I could do to help them get ready for the festival that was about to happen. They asked if I could paint a sign.

So, on the spot, I gathered some materials from them, bought paint, and used their projector to make the sign. It is displayed at a basketball court just outside the main town square.
