Who is ₿esotted?

She first heard the word Bitcoin when it was unexpectedly whispered in her ear, while working with the Shipibo-Conibo tribe, deep in the Amazon jungle of Peru. During a ceremonial journey with their native medicinal plant Ayahuasca, the spirit of the plant shared the message: "Sell everything and buy Bitcoin."

Understandably, taking financial advice from a psychedelic plant seemed like an insane thing to do. So she ignored the mysterious message.

That was January 2017. BTC had just reached the price of $1,004.

Had she invested $10,000 — acquiring roughly ten Bitcoin —  today she would hold an asset worth over $1,000,000.

Ayahuasca had also urged her to pick up a brush and make art again. Creativity had flowed in her veins since she was a child: when she'd lost hours tracing Disney cartoons —  to learn to draw them by hand — happily sculpting clay, icing on cakes, mud, sand, papier-mâché, and everyday objects into gifts. 

In her twenties, her canvas expanded: designing immersive event experiences, graphics, and adverts for BBC Worldwide Publishing and other major UK brands. She also curated two striking fine art exhibits, the Frank Worth and the Playboy Legacy Collection, which premiered in the USA.

₿esotted has since transformed walls, buildings, billboards, and campervans, decorating, renovating, and reshaping neglected spaces into ones that inspire beauty, warmth, and delight.

In 2020, while trapped unexpectedly on a paradise island in Thailand due to COVID lockdowns, she became intrigued by Bitcoin. With time on her hands, she spent hundreds of hours studying the monetary system, particularly the destructive impact of inflationary abuse, which led her to the conclusion that the FIAT system is a collective trauma that harms us all.

Slowly, she became ₿esotted. Excited by the evolution of money from gold to code. She began to understand Bitcoin's potential and the unique opportunity it presents for women around the world to close the gender wealth gap, while also helping those in coercive or abusive relationships to break free and claim financial independence, perhaps for the first time in generations. 

₿esotted hopes Bitcoin is My Muse will spark conversations that inspire curiosity, education, and participation — especially among women — in what Michael Saylor calls "the world's greatest asset".

And, the lesson of her story? Ignore the FUD and please listen to the plants!
