Inject BTC (4 of 5)

Deposits into Ethereum's public sale were hosted in 2014 by BTC address 36PrZ[...]. "Inject BTC" plots most of the depositors into this BTC address. It represents over 6,000 transactions (zoomed in, the larger nodes) and many more thousands of inputs (zoomed in, smaller nodes). One starts to see those curious collective patterns pool in this pocket or that, making one wonder about the goals behind them. Some wallets input to many transactions, some just to 1. Using a deterministic grid layout algorithm, it results in these concentrations of paths here and there. Ownership includes a PDF, and zooming in on the PDF reveals the first few characters of the wallet addresses and transaction hashes for 36PrZ[...] as it collects the inputs to support Ethereum development in late summer, 2014.

Ethstory, Original 2 in Series 1: "36PrZ (Conception)"

The first series "36PrZ (Conception)" illustrates some basic elements of pre-Ethereum history. All are based on actual data, structured and laid out in a manner that produces visuals that relay this early significance. Each original was generated using thousands of pieces of data drawn from original sources, including Ethereum documentation and on-chain activity. The first series is in a dark theme, connoting chain archaeology like the study of etchings made permanent on a cave wall. The cave's dark surrounding signals something intriguing behind these etchings, of human intentions before knowing their future course.
