Hello Alien Art Hive Community members. This is my second entry in the AAH community contests. I'm happy to participate and bring my version of "Crypto". My approach to this contest was that of sharing the blockchain technology.

My short story accompanying my themed-project is below:

SHARING OUR CRYPTO EXPERIENCE OFF WORLD

The universal, off-planet exchange of information related to the world of cryptocurrency. Is this idea ludicrous? I think not. The conspiracy theorists would agree with me related to our planet and civilization origins originating off world. Those ancient advanced alien civilizations brought to planet Earth the tools and knowledge to build Stonehedge and other unexplained wonders around the globe. Intellectual ideas planted that took root and thrust forth Earth's evolution can't be discounted. Too much evidence has been uncovered.

Untested ideas that brought forth space travel only succeeded in bringing the universe closer to connecting with one another.

With the ISS in place and an intermediary, communication about crypto may be able to reach other solar systems. Perhaps this exchange of information can be adapted to meet the needs of alien worlds.

Have you ever wondered about the advanced resources required for alien technology and equipment that supposedly alien worlds have built? Do they pay the workers to construct the spaceships? Do other societies pay them to man the crafts and seek out new worlds and civilizations?

What if we discover that Earth's development of the technology that cryptocurrency is built on originated off-world? Is it possible? I think so.

For this month's contest theme involving Crypto, my theme reflects the idea that crypto technology and decentralization originated not of Earth but from outer space. From worlds not yet known to us.

To demonstrate my theory, I present my visual version of how blockchain technology is shared. Below are my steps in the creation process:

For the universe vision, I located a unique image that impressed me as I could see how information could flow back and from Earth.

PLANET EARTH WORKFLOW

My pure fractal that resembles a city I used for the landscape of our planet. The image doesn't look like much from afar, but just like Earth, under the right lens, it can blossom into a receptacle for information. Likewise, it can be a transmitter of blockchain technology with the right tools in place.

• I switched canvas background to navy so that details for the city fractal I added, then duplicated represents Earth can be fully displayed.
• The flow of blockchain technology pointing upward and onward to share and help benefit the knowledge our world has gained I created with lightning.
• A rotating device within the vessel to receive or transmit the information was included in the center of my scene.

Below is my completed Earth:

I located a lovely version of the universe as my background image To represent the flow of information through a transmitter, I chose a powerful warlock capable of communicating off world. Other images assisted in the creation of the flow of blockchain technology. Of course, no sensible universe can be complete with aliens looking on and attempting to interpret what mere Earthlings are up to.

• Added the universe image, then resized it to fill three-fourths of the screen.
• Next, removed background from warlord and repositioned him in center of scene.
• Added aliens, removed background, positioned in skyline looking down on Earth.
• Added the Bitcoin image and lightning.
• Added animation to pulsate.

Below is my completed universe portion:

Combined both top half for the universe and the bottom half for Earth to complete my scene and finalize the project.

Below is the completed project.

Thanks for your visit. I hope you liked my mixed media art project entry for Alien Art Hive's Cosmic Creations Contest - Theme: CRYPTO.
