The New York Stock Exchange now hosts a statue of Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto, marking one of the clearest symbols yet of crypto’s entry into mainstream finance. The artwork, created by artist Valentina Picozzi, known as @satoshigallery on X, now stands inside the iconic Wall Street venue.
Twenty One Capital, described as a bitcoin-native public company trading under the ticker XXI, placed the statue at the exchange. The company presented the installation as a meeting point between digital assets and traditional markets, using the NYSE floor as a shared space between the two systems.
In a statement on X, the NYSE said the statue’s new home “marks a shared ground between emerging systems and established institutions.” The exchange added that the placement reflects how ideas that began as code can move into culture and, over time, become part of shared financial history.
Meanwhile, Artist Valentina Picozzi, known as @satoshigallery on X, plans to reveal the sixth statue of Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto next week. She described the upcoming location as “so wild and meaningful” that it goes beyond the collective expectations of her guerrilla art team.
The post invited followers to guess where the new installation will appear, adding an interactive element to the rollout. The hint pointed to a venue that carries symbolic weight for Bitcoin’s story and for broader cultural or financial themes.
Satoshigallery reiterated a long-term goal to place 21 Satoshi statues around the world. With the sixth piece now prepared, the project continues to link physical public art with Bitcoin’s digital legacy.
A Satoshi Nakamoto sculpture will be permanently installed in Buenos Aires after it won a local art competition, and the city now plans to feature it as a public tribute to Bitcoin’s cultural impact, as summarized in our earlier news story. The winning piece moves from concept to landmark as officials prepare its placement.
A new statue of Satoshi Nakamoto was unveiled in Tokyo to honor Bitcoin’s roots, as featured in our recent coverage and city officials said it symbolizes the city’s recognition of cryptocurrency’s cultural and technological impact. The installation adds a public landmark that links Bitcoin’s origin story with Tokyo’s role in digital finance.
