This artwork is a visual representation of the bitcoin blockchain.
All transactions of block 499774 of the BTC blockchain are represented as a pixel pattern in a 16x16 matrix and superposed one on each other, and mixed with my digital artistic algorithms. All colors come from the blockchain data.
Block 499774 was validated on december 17th 201712:35 UTC, when bitcoin reached its highest value in 2017.
The resulting 2D visual artwork is then mapped on the egg, and printed on demand. Best result is pure gold or gold plated, which best reflect the bitcoin peak value that built this pattern.
More detail how the pattern is created with blockchain data:
