The Italian municipality of Fornelli in the Italian Molise region will devote a monument to the pseudonym creator of Bitcoin (BTC) Satoshi Nakamoto.
In an article on Facebook of April 23 of the municipality, Fornelli declared that he planned to unveil the works of art Satoshi on May 1. The details surrounding the monument were not clear in the announcement, but the municipality said it was designed by artist Mattia Pannoni and funded by the local government.
“It is important, indeed fundamental, as administence, to take into consideration all the new ideas that come from our young people,” said the mayor of Fornelli Giovanni Tedeschi.
According to the local government, Fornelli has the “highest density of the adoption of bitcoin worldwide” among its approximately 1,800 residents. Other regions have attempted to use BTC or other cryptocurrencies to attract visitors, including the Bitcoin beach area in El Salvador and the Swiss city of Zug, which accepts cryptographic payments for many local goods and services.

The identity of Satoshi, whether it is a single individual or a group of people, remains one of the greatest mysteries of the Crypto space since the publication of the White Bitcoin Paper in 2008.

Many artists, both cryptographic and other investors, have published works of art trying to represent the pseudonym Creator via digital statues and images. A common theme in these pieces is to show Satoshi without any clearly defined facial characteristics, sometimes carrying a hooded sweatshirt or working on a computer.
