This is quite cool, somehow with all the things happening int he last year I have missed this. Outstanding work on design, someone really took some time to think this through and didn't just go ahead and construct whatever just to score some points.
The statue has just been stolen:
The @satoshigallery team
are offering 0.1 BTC to whoever provides useful informations to recover the statue.
Everyone initially thought that the Satoshi Nakamoto sculpture in Switzerland had been stolen, but it was found in a nearby lake. In fact the statue of this great man is currently undergoing restoration work, even we see that the municipality of Lugano is engaged in the restoration of the statue of this man. So in this context it can be said that the municipality of Lugano may deserve the award that they already wanted to give. My idea this was probably done by some stupid person who still doesn't understand the power and potential of Bitcoin, so it's right that perhaps more investigation should be conducted to find those idiots.
I doubt that it was done by an enemy of Bitcoin. Bitcoin doesn't do anything harmful to anyone that could invoke that much hate. It is just neutral and exists in its own space. It was probably one of those random drunk or drugged people doing something stupid events.
