Bitcoin NFTs (also known as Ordinals, Inscriptions, and Digital Artifacts) is the hottest new trend that makes Bitcoin cool again.

Feel like you're missing out on it, anon?

So let’s understand WTF is a Bitcoin NFT (ordinals)?
/Thread 🧵
🟪 What is an Ordinals in the real world?

Ordinal numbers are numbers that are used to represent the order, rank, or position of something.
Like 1st, 2nd, 3rd
🟪 Ordinals in Bitcoin NFT world?

Ordinals are single satoshis (sats) with inscribed arbitrary content using Bitcoin's built-in scripting language and it can be collected and traded.
Inscriptions are unique digital artifacts – fully decentralized, permissionless, non-mutable, and 100% on-chain.
OG af.

It’s still relatively new as it just crossed 10k ordinals created.

Ordinals don't require a separate token, another blockchain, or any changes to Bitcoin.
🟪 Ordinals can be represented in a few ways:

-> raw notation, like so 1905530482684727°
-> decimal notation, like so 738848.482684727°
-> degree notation, like so 0°108848′992″482684727‴
🟪 Total Supply

-> common: 2.1 quadrillion
-> uncommon: 6,929,999
-> rare: 3437
-> epic: 32
-> legendary: 5
-> mythic: 1
🟪 What is a satoshi?

Satoshis, not bitcoin, is the atomic, native currency of the Bitcoin network. One bitcoin can be sub-divided into 100,000,000 satoshis, but no further.(Ordinal Theory, 2023)
The brilliant mind behind Ordinals is @rodarmor, who has been talking about the protocol for months, to deploy it to mainnet in late January 2023.
Now, there are no secondary marketplaces for ordinals yet and all trading is done over the counter
(I.e, send money to the owner, the owner sends ordinal).
Creators have been acting as middlemen to ensure security currently.
🟪 How to position yourself

-Get a btc wallet: getalby.com
-join the ordinal discord server: discord.com/invite/87cjuz4…
-keep track of the ordinals: @ord_bot -> ordinals.com
-keep your eyes peeled

Well folks, the future of web3 gaming in India is looking pretty bright!

Here’s why I think web3 gaming has a future in India: open this...
🟪 India is a TRMP (Time Rich Money Poor) country:

In India, people have a lot of free time but not much disposable income.
This means they're looking for ways to spend their time that are engaging, affordable & monetizable.
🟪 Web3 games have a great rewards system:

The rewards system of Web3 games is built on blockchain technology, making it secure, easy to access & transparent.

No one wants to play a game where the rewards aren't fair, right?

Grab your popcorn, for the AI wars have just begun!

💥 Bard vs ChatGPT 💥

Here’s why I think Google will kill ChatGPT: Image
Google is the king of the internet jungle, with its powerful crawler that indexes all the latest happenings on the web in no time.

In contrast, ChatGPT, as advanced as it may be, only has information up until 2021 and is missing out...
on recent events (like the release of the iPhone 14 or the China Covid outbreak).

This is a massive restriction.

I have worked at a web3 marketing agency, I often get asked the million-dollar question:
"How do I grow my NFT project's Twitter profile?"

Well, there's no magic formula (unless you're into bots) but
here's some general advice that might help: 👇👇👇
🟪 To grow your NFT Twitter profile the organic way, your collection better be art worthy of a museum and your website better be neater than your grandma's kitchen.
You have to be well-connected. Work with the alpha groups of the NFT world and other communities to spread the word about your project.

Just remember, most of them will want a little something for their efforts, so have a budget for sponsorships ready.
