{%hackmd theme-dark %}

Started with a simple experiment to initiate an experience after a successful bitcoin transaction using the crypto changemachine component.

The Strip experience began when brainstorming a level design for an experience that initiated from a bitcoin payment. The [change machine](https://github.com/madjin/janus-custom-components/blob/master/tools/index.md#changemachine) was retrofitted with an event trigger to initiate a ride.



### How it's Made

We needed a track for a virtual ride, the vegas strip was the simplest example and bonus points for inspiring 'the street' that Neal Stephenson described in his groundbreaking novel Snow Crash.
