ordinals

Day 8! Although a few projects have solidified themselves as the early leaders, there are many other strong communities that were launched early on Ordinals. Owning these collections allows for special access in Discord to raffles, alpha, and sometimes airdrops. Not financial advice and do your own research 🧵:

Bitcoin Shrooms

Bitcoin Shrooms are probably the first collection to be inscribed on Bitcoin. However with a supply of just over 200, it does not get into the arguments about whether it is the first 10K collection. This historic collection has had sales of over 3 and 4 BTC.

Sub10K

The first 10,000 inscriptions to Bitcoin are looked at as having historical provenance. Many of the collections in this thread have at least part of the collection inscribed under 10K. There is an official Discord, but low inscription numbers has not become a popular meta yet.

Bitcoin Wizards

As outlined in my previous Quantum Cats/Taproot Wizards thread, the meme that the Taproot Wizards are based on was originally created by Mavensbot. The Taproot Wizards and Deezy Labs teams helped Mavensbot launch the Bitcoin Wizards as their own collection.

All Bitcoin Wizards were also entered into an early raffle for a guaranteed white list for Taproot Wizards. They also launched the $WZRD token on BRC-20, which may have a conversion to Runes in the near future.

Bitcoin Boos

Led by Bootoshi, Bitcoin Boos have two collections, the Boos, a mostly Sub10K collection, and the Boottalions, a slightly larger collection that includes some cursed (negative numbered) inscriptions. The discord has many giveaways and Bootoshi has a focus on giving alpha for both Ordinals and AI bots.

Badgers 

The Honey Badgers are a collection, mostly inscribed below 100K. The discord holds a lot of giveaways and has a very engaged community discussing alpha across Bitcoin and other chains. Also, like a badger, the community has a mischievous, joking culture.

Ordinauts

Ordinauts is made up of three collections, Ordinauts (Sub20K collection), Dark Ordinauts (many below 100K), and Galactic Passport (which is more of an entry pass to their discord). Lots of giveaways and a lot of OGs own this collection, giving out alpha

Goosinals

Goosinals is from artist Dmitri Cherniak, who sold an NFT for over $6M in 2023. In October 2023, he partnered with MOMA to create the art that would eventually make up the collection. Goosinals was launched across chains, but 10K landed on Bitcoin. This project is a cross between community and fine art

Astral Babes 

Before Magic Eden and other inscription launchpads were created, Deezy Labs built the first Ordinals minting sites, using the lightning network and nostr to sell and distribute ordinals. This included the mints for Bitcoin Frogs and Bitcoin Wizards, but first they sold their own collection, Astral Babes

This was a multi-part drop, with the first batch Sub10K, the second batch Sub100K, and the final batch in the 100K-200K inscription range. Deezy Labs has also been focused on finding rare sats.

BTC Machine 

Building a multiplayer online role-playing game, this team has been the most active when it comes to airdrops and launches. We will see how it all comes together in the game. They also showed their humor, launching anti-runes called Derps, which are earned by selling an inscription, rather than buying

Dogepunks

What happens when you mashup CryptoPunks and Dogecoin? You get DogePunks. Complete with dogs, apes, zombies, and aliens, this collection came to be during the rush to inscribe below the one million inscription mark. Lots of giveaways in the discord.

As always, not financial advice and do your own research!

I think I'm in most of the OG discords including Ordicord an >10K

I belong to part of a Sub 10K Project. We are going to be building out a project using recursion that should be pretty cool.
