James Stephen George Boggs (January 16, 1955 – January 22, 2017) was an American artist, best known for his hand-drawn depictions of banknotes. Due to his pre-Bitcoin philosophical questions about the value of fiat currency,[2] his early interest in creating his own currency,[3] and his contributions to an "encrypted online currency" as early as 2000,[4] Boggs was described by Artnet as the Patron Saint of Cryptocurrency.[5]
