Shining a light on sound money: This Minecraft-inspired savings' lamp, a first of its kind, was ingeniously crafted by silexperience@iris.to and his son. The project was sparked by Silexperience’s son asking, "Can bitcoin be in a piggy bank?" This led to the idea of integrating a LightningPiggy device inside a block shaped lamp.
We love how the LightningPiggy device can seamlessly integrated into any object and in this case it looks like an artefact of the bitcoin blockchain.
