Title: Tic... Tac... 15 Years ///\\\ 10 Years
Post by: CryptoImperator on February 20, 2024, 01:06:17 AM
Hello fellow Bitcoiners!

After a bit of absence, this year, 2024 marks both Bitcoin's 15th Anniversary and Crypto Imperator 10 years Anniversary.

I wanted to prepare something special...


https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/02/20/YT4sq.png

 

Just a bit of brainstorming ideas while conceiving this project
21
Tough
Limited
Coin +
Ordinals


Coin design is on the works...

Let me know what you think ;) will be posting more information in the coming months...

P.D. (Pending PMs to be replied in no time) also if you don't follow me on X... @CryptoImperator

Why?

I have to say I never caught on to the ETH NFTs and ERC20 craze. But I like to see how Bitcoin's capabilities are expanded, new communities onboarding it. And yes, makes fees high, but I think its fun what is being created.

even satoshi said this stuff should be on a side chain. It has been running on BTC via XCP for years - it should stay there.  as for being "created" nothing new is being created that didnt exist somewhere else - and 99% of it isn't even art just ai generated junk - zero artistic skill necessary - can it look nice? sure but it is not my cup of tea. I will stick with physical art.

TBH I think that inscribing a sort of "COA" for each Watch on the Bitcoin Blockchain, and for it to act like the "Papers" for each watch is quite interesting.

With:
Serial Number
Coin Address
Maker

Etc

As its a wearable piece, in case you want to show its authenticity as well as devalue it in case of theft or loss. If you hold both the Inscription and the Watch it would be the only way to have a complete set.

Great idea!  Pepe Flyers are already doing their COA's on chain attached to their shoes via NFC.

Lmao off - stealing money? Come on Mopar you are starting to sound like Todamont with his FBI calls and investigations. ORDIs are here to stay in the near term. embrace change and make profits when you can. Convert to BTC- don’t be a bag holder but if you missed out on cheap btc, ordinals is your second chance

lol I said similar - they are an exploit, plain and simple. inscriptions have always been possible but to be able to exploit the full block is ridiculous and is an attack on Bitcoin.

But hey gotta make money right? even if it's in a sleazy way eh.

I am in Bitcoin because I believe in Bitcoin not to make profits. I am also 100% in - I dont use banks

I think the ordinals add more character and forces BTC developers to find solutions go the onslaught of problems ordinals have caused ie making another layer for other protocols to run over top and reducing fees etc.

I am absolutely loving this watch + coin + ordinal. Please add me the the wait list! How much is this going to cost??

CI good to see ya back at it. Ordinals would be cool if it was in a way depicting how it clogs up the network so people can trade photos that will be worthless in a few moths or so. If they had a legitimate use case, I’d be all for it. Bitcoin needs to faster and cheaper, ordinals are not helping that. They will likely have a use case one day, but for now you want to send a photo use text messages or emails. Grumpy rant over

I just wonder how someone pays their electric bill, buys groceries, gas, property taxes, or daily necessities without ever using a bank??? I guess if you cashed out millions in btc into straight fiat it would be possible although a huge pain in the ass. And if you just have the wife or someone else run everything through their account then its the same thing as using a bank. I'm just curious how someone could live in this day in age and not use a bank for anything... except drug dealers, maybe gamblers.. or someone with millions stuffed in their mattress. I've personally paid you via cash app, that has to be linked to something...

Search the hashtag #GetOnZero on twitter. You will see Bitcoiners have guides on how they are 100% Bitcoin.

Can confirm that Watches have been ordered. Stay tuned for how to get one...

Numbered - 21 watches

Yes cannot wait for these to hit auction block.  You’d definitely make more than just reserving 21 spots.

Can confirm that the production of the watch has started. Stay tuned for allocations... only 21 watches. No preorders (The manufacture has been self funded 100%) No watches have been sold yet.

I created an ordinals project with a use case that links real-world objects to ordinal nfts. The project fractionalizes rare physical bitcoins and pays out fractional holders though the initial sales and royalties though compounding the value of the item factional owners have stake in. I made a post about it yesterday "https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5493226.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5493226.0)". Feel free to check it out. Link to the project is in my signature below :)

I love the idea btw. I want one of those watches  ;D

Glad to see this is moving forward, but I am confused.
"No preorders", but they are already "paid for in full"? Isn't that a preorder?
Or did someone fund the project and you are giving them away?
If they are already paid for and spoken for, why do we need to "stay tuned for allocations"? Just to look and ohh and ahh?
Is there anyway for someone here to actually get one of these or is this just a hype thread?

Do you mean that you have managed to self-funded the project ("they have been already paid for in full") & the production has started (ie it will be ready at some point)?

"Stay tuned for allocations"-> Although the production has been paid in full, you will accept "pre-order" allocations that will require a pre-payment deposit (partially/in full) before having the end product in hand?

Do you have a price point (just an indication) in mind , of how much those will/might cost?

thank you.

My bad sorry!

I did not express myself correctly, what was meant is that the production has started and its not dependant on any preorder for the watches to be made. I have funded all what was necessary to make them.

No watch has been sold, and I want them to stay in the forum if possible! CI was born here, ample distribution is what I would like.

Expected date of delivery is around October-November so yes, these will be allocated earlier. A refundable deposit may be asked.

Regarding price, making a 21 run has been a big challenge, usually the lowest runs are around 100 units.

The aim is to be priced at less than 0.07 BTC at current rates

Having had to deal with something similar years (crap decades I'm old) ago with some motorcycle parts do the numbers work better to make the 100 and have 21 as the regular ones and have the other 79 as more generic ones?

Even if you have to do some different engraving on the back or edge to show these are the 21 "special" and these are just the "whatever" ones.

I don't think it would devalue the 21 by having others that are markedly different.
