“That crazy guy.”

Bae Jeong-min looked at me with a face full of shock.

“So you’re really going to do performance art?”

“Oh, I think I should do that.”

There were several reasons.

If I were to do performance art, experts might see it, be inspired, and make different judgments about my work than they would have otherwise.

Because to the general audience, it might seem like it could have some special meaning.

There were various other reasons as well.

Among these, there was another reason that was the biggest.

“I think I’ll feel better if I do at least this.”

3.1 billion.

I had invested all my savings, but I couldn’t feel at ease because it wasn’t the small sums I used to have.

Whether I’m sitting in a corner of the room, sneaking into an art gallery, or eating, whenever I have free time, I take out my phone and just keep looking at the coin graph.

If it were like the old days, I would have talked nonsense with Bae Jeong-min in the coin gallery to draw aggro, or I would have prayed.

Now, I couldn’t let go of my anxious mind with that kind of thing.

“So you’re going to do performance art?”

“If you do a live show outside, won’t people’s attention be drawn to the coin graph?”

“I guess so······.”

He looked at me with a serious expression.

“But do I have to endure looking at the graph like that?”

“You won’t understand.”

This is actually the first time in my coin history that I’ve ever gotten a proper gift.

Since they even gave me a 3x bonus, my heart sinks even if it changes by just 1 or 2%.

Even if it exceeds 3%, hundreds of millions of dollars are involved.

Due to the nature of the coin, it can fluctuate by more than 5% even in a short period of time.

“If I just sit in the corner of the room and look at graphs, I feel like I’m 100% going crazy.”

I was sincere.

“I feel like I need to do something so they don’t look at this.”

“······I think I know what you mean.”

Only then did the guy nod as if he could understand my feelings a little.

“But don’t you think you don’t have to be so anxious?”

“Coin?”

“No, I mean modern art. But there was an article yesterday. Was it Andrei Lee? They said that your analysis was successful. So I thought I could get my all-in on coins back.”

“I read the article too.”

I even put up a solo article title saying that my work discusses criticism of ‘true values’.

“But opinions are divided on that too.”

“okay?”

“Andrei Lee is a pretty famous gentleman, but it’s questionable whether he has any authority.”

“Is that so?”

“So, there is a sharp conflict between right and wrong.”

“aha.”

“Anyway, I’m going to go out and do some performance art.”

“What are you going to do?”

“I don’t know. If you put makeup on your face and go out and wave your arms around, isn’t that performance art?”

“······.”

“All the performance art I’ve seen has been like that.”

“···That crazy guy.”

***

While Han Seok-jae was applying white makeup to his face and going out into the streets of Italy to do something stupid.

There was a strange atmosphere among the experts.

This meant that Andrei Lee’s interpretation of the works exhibited at Runcayvan was somewhat accurate.

Eventually, to test that opinion, many artists, including Andrei, gathered in Nice, France, and held a discussion.

“Let’s go in and take a look.”

Chinese art analyst Chang Sichuan crossed his arms and raised his chin as if ready to refute whatever was said.

Because as a Chinese citizen, he was given the duty to ruin this exhibition of the Runcai Van.

“What kind of true modern values ​​is this work, which is worse than the scribbles of kindergarteners with watercolors, discussing?”

Chang Sichuan took out the strongest words he could think of and listed them.

“He’s a fake artist. He’s not even a modern artist. He just happened to come across it.”

Andrei Lee smiled leisurely, as if he had anticipated the question.

“What do you think is the most important value in modern times?”

“······I asked you to explain, so what are you asking?”

“Answer me. What is the highest value in modern society?”

Chang Sichuan frowned, seeming uncomfortable.

“Since so many people have their own values, we can’t say that one is superior, but if we were to discuss the most universal value, it would be ‘money.’”

“That’s right. It’s money. In today’s society where materialism is rampant, it’s money. Is anything acceptable for making money? Is money right? What is truly, truly important? I think Runcaban is criticizing this.”

“What does that mean? Stop beating around the bush and explain it to me straight away.”

“Okay, let me show you the picture first.”

{@PIC:721697}

“Yes, what kind of modern art is this? It’s graffiti.”

Chang Sichuan let out a hollow laugh.

“What do you see?”

“Listen to the explanation first.”

Andrey opened his mouth calmly.

“This work represents Bitcoin.”

“······?”

“Let’s think about the meaning of coins. Cryptocurrencies are meant to represent decentralization and were created for that purpose, but what does that actually mean?”

“It’s a useless existence.”

“That’s right. The ones that are traded as actual currency are only used for illegal transactions, and when ordinary people trade, they are only used for investment to generate profits. In other words, they are only used for speculative transactions. It’s the garbage that was created as modern technology developed.”

Here is what Runcayvan’s work says about Bitcoin:

“They don’t question the true value of Bitcoin, and they only trade the lump of numbers displayed on the Internet, and the dollar value. In other words, they are dealing with the evils of modern society that focus on appearances rather than substance.”

It also leads to criticism of the younger generation who focus on SNS.

“Rather than focusing on the inner self, they are targeting the pretense of the younger generation who go on trips and buy luxury goods even if they have to go into debt.”

“This picture?”

“Yes.”

Andrey said, pointing to the picture.

“To blind people like you, it just looks like a mess of lines. But if you look closely, it feels different.”

He confidently explained his analysis.

“First of all, the background of the exhibition hall is painted entirely in gold. What does this mean?”

The other expert’s eyes widened as if he had realized something.

“Gold? Materialism?”

“That’s right. Among them, it represents the color of Bitcoin.”

“······Beet?”

“Yes. This piece shows a graph of Bitcoin. The first half is when Bitcoin is going down.”

The number of lines is small and the density is narrow.

“Density here means transaction volume. At some point, people lose interest. It shows that the instability of cryptocurrencies prevents them from gaining recognition from people.”

In contrast, the latter half has dense lines.

“It’s proof that over time, many people become interested.”

“Where is the flow of time?”

“Time flows from left to right. There is evidence of that.”

Even though it is the same line, the left side is drawn thicker and the right side is drawn thinner.

“That is, it stretches from left to right. This is proof that the left side was drawn first. This means that time is passing.”

And that’s not all.

“In addition to straight lines, there are also curves throughout. This represents the world’s anxiety about coins, as if the waves are surging and swaying, but it also represents a change in perception.”

“What about the central part? It’s a mess there.”

“It means chaos. It means a transitional period where the perceptions of many people change and change and change again.”

“······!”

I was being persuaded.

As he said, when we substituted ‘Bitcoin’ into the piece, everything started to make sense.

“What about the rest of the pictures?”

Chang Sichuan refuted urgently.

“A total of 14 works were exhibited. If only one of them is meaningful, what about the 13th? What exactly is the meaning?”

“That’s a trap.”

“What?”

“The problem is the stereotype that all 14 have meaning.”

Andrey said with discerning eyes.

“I don’t see the 14 works because I think they each have a different meaning. Only when I think of them as useless can I truly reach the value that Runcayvan speaks of.”

“······?”

“I told you earlier. In modern society, we focus on useless and strange values, namely, showing off, without building substance.”

Other experts burst into applause as if they had realized this.

“The remaining 13 points are all meaningless.”

“That’s right!”

Andrei answered with relief, as if he liked the answer.

“Other works were just for show. If you focus on them, you won’t be able to find what the real work is, and you won’t be able to find its meaning.”

Chang Sichuan trembled.

It was such a perfect interpretation.

It also made sense logically.

But I had to find a way to fix it somehow.

“This is Bitcoin’s graph, and you’re saying that it predicts the actual flow?”

“Yes.”

“How did you know and predict the future graph that hasn’t even been traded yet?”

Chang Sichuan furrowed his brows and let out a voice.

“If he actually drew a graph of the future, shouldn’t he be considered a stock price manipulator who manipulated the Bitcoin graph, not a prophet?”

“There are rumors going around in Korea.”

Andrei didn’t want to say anything, but he confessed as if he had no choice.

“There’s even a story that says Han Seok-jae = Sakashi Nakamoto.”

“What the······!”

“There is also evidence that he is the father of Bitcoin. Of course, we need to check whether the rumor is true or not… But if even one of them is true, it is a different story.”

He created Bitcoin himself.

Han Seok-jae is criticizing himself?

To anyone who saw it, he was a perfect modern artist.

***

The conclusions reached by the experts at the Venice conference were as follows:

‘The artist Runcayvan predicted the Bitcoin graph and is using it to criticize modern art.’

In other words, it was pointing out the contradictory aspects of modern society that focuses on superficial values ​​without considering the substance.

Naturally, once the interpretation was complete and the enormous meaning behind it was revealed, word of mouth about the Venice Biennale spread quickly.

In particular, people flocked to Han Seok-jae’s solo exhibition hall.

But this wasn’t good news for Han Seok-jae.

“Fuck, why are you doing this?”

[Bitcoin (BTC)]

-Current unit price: KRW 92,114,000 (-10.2%)

Bitcoin started crashing in an instant.

Since we are giving a gift three times, it is not just a 10% drop.

If we are to judge by actual value.

-My investment amount: KRW 3,124,000,000

– Initial holdings: KRW 9,372,000,000

-Currently held assets: KRW 8,416,056,000

-Proceeds: -955,944,000 KRW

– Yield: -30.6%

“What the f*ck!”

In an instant, 1 billion won flew away.

“Don’t die! Don’t die!!”
