About
Why this artist matters now
James Stephen George Boggs was an American artist, best known for his hand-drawn depictions of banknotes. Due to his pre-Bitcoin philosophical questions about the value of fiat currency, his early interest in creating his own currency, and his contributions to an "encrypted online currency" as early as 2000, Boggs is described as the Patron Saint of Cryptocurrency.
