New Counterparty Timeline Highlights Platform's MilestonesThe following link is an interactive timeline that includes all the major projects, tokens and developments that happened on Bitcoin's Counterparty platform between 2014 - 2023:
https://time.graphics/line/858561It covers notable early tokens like TEST, SEBUH, OLGA, JPJA, and projects like NILIcoins, Spells of Genesis, Sarutobi, Rare Pepe, Bitcorns, and Kaleidoscope.
A lot of project/token creators had/have presences on the forum -- some are gone, but a few are still active, such as
nili, who was one of the first people ever to experiment with tokenized art projects.
The timeline was developed by
davesta, who is a Rare Pepe artist and now one of the most active Counterparty ambassadors. He's a real cool dude and if you're on Twitter I recommend giving him a follow.
There is of course a lot of hype currently surrounding Ordinals, leading a lot of people to believe that this was the first time Bitcoin had NFTs. Well, that's not true at all: Counterparty has been doing it since 2014 and continues to this day with projects like Fake Rares, Notable Pepes, Bassmint, and others.
