In Episode 10 of The Movement of Art, Yonat Vaks is joined by Anthony, Vee, Midy, and HiQ from the Stackchain Magazine team for a conversation about community, memes, and the culture Bitcoin sets in motion. What began as a single tweet during a bear market, one pleb posting a $5 stack and asking others to stack a dollar alongside him, grew into one of the most genuine grassroots communities in Bitcoin, and eventually into a print magazine made for plebs, by plebs.

The discussion traces Stackchain's origins on a now years-long Twitter thread, the all-volunteer effort behind a limited-edition magazine that mirrors Bitcoin's own scarcity, and the memes, side chains, and rituals that hold a global community together. From goat-farmer cover artists paid in Bitcoin to the conviction that carries Bitcoiners through the long bear markets, the conversation is a portrait of ordinary people building the future they want to see, and having fun stacking sats while they do it.

In this episode, host Yonat Vaks sits down with two artists from the Bitcoin art world, Mexico City-born illustrator and banknote creator Gus Grillasca, and woodworker, chef, DJ, and community-builder MadMunky of 2140 WTF.

Together they dig into why visual art and memes cut through propaganda in ways an article never could, how they each found Bitcoin from a place of privacy advocacy and distrust of the state, and why they see a closing window of time to make people reflect on what money really is before cash disappears. The conversation ranges across Nostr and permissionless tools, censorship and surveillance, art as a signal for future generations, the Bitcoin for Palestine fundraiser, and the tension between preaching to an echo chamber and reaching the normies.

They close with a recurring question: it's the year 2140, the last satoshi has been mined, and someone discovers your art with no context—what do you want it to tell them about the world we live in now? A wide-ranging talk on freedom, critical thinking, community, and using creative work to fight back.

In Episode 8 of The Movement of Art, Yonat Vaks is joined by Rare Scrilla, Kane Mayfield, and Rad for a conversation about music, creativity, and Bitcoin culture. As artists working at the intersection of sound, storytelling, and sovereignty, they explore how music can communicate ideas that reach beyond charts, trends, and traditional industry structures. The discussion examines the role of artists in shaping culture, the parallels between independent music and Bitcoin’s ethos of self-sovereignty, and how creative work can inspire people to question existing systems and imagine new possibilities. From songwriting and performance to community building and artistic freedom, the conversation highlights the power of music as both a personal expression and a cultural force.
