This is my second entry, my first one (on page 2), i thought was probably a bit easy and maybe even a bit low effort on my part so I thought instead that I would try and include some of the history and big events that have happened in here.

Below was my first idea, sketched messily on a piece of paper with a vague idea of how i was going to do this....



I know that if i could find a visual representation for each event i would be ok. I kinda had to cherrypick, for each year, one or two large events that i could visually represent and i came up with these....

2009-inception of group , satoshi
2010-pizza day, BTCs first faucet
2011- silk road
2012- BTCs first halving
2013- the term "hodl" first used
2014- mt gox closes, eth ann, xmr ann
2015-ross jailed
2016- 2nd halving, xmr launched
2017- moontime
2018-bitconnect dies
2019- happy anniversary


I used  all of the above as my base for the work which i took pics of underneath as I went through it....

Every single thing on here has got at least one very important post on here and goes to show the history contained in this place!




After a few hours of corrosion, I had my plate done, all i had to do now was seal it up and let it dry overnight. After i woke up this morning, i framed it and this is what I have.

What you are looking at is a result of corrosion on copper and no paint or ink was used on this at all.

Hope you guys like it 👍






And a couple of different views too for good measure.
