Inferno is where the fiat system lives — the descending circles of debt, inflation and manufactured dependence. The opening chapter of the Cypher Deos series drags Dante's hell into the present, painted in the style of the old masters, in a dramatic tall format built for the descent.
Its circles are populated by devilish bankers and their debt slaves — “Control the money, control the people” as the mode of operation, “In Debt We Trust” as the motto — a hell built not from fire and pitchforks but from compounding interest and a printer that never stops. Every renaissance needed its reckoning first. This is ours, and Bitcoin is the way out of it.

The print quality is outstanding. The paper feels substantial, the colors are rich, and the framing makes it look like a gallery piece. Thrilled with how it looks on my wall.
