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.The @satoshigallery team are offering 0.1 BTC to whoever provides useful informations to recover the statue.
Where if in fact that it's done for restoration then it doesn't mean that it's actually stolen. Too many news out there and even the ones that we tell reputable are also telling the same thing.
I guess that the next time they will release some news, they need to validate first their source and information.
