Ephemera

Erin Redwing (@realizingerin) is the host of the Bitcoin podcast "Hell Money". The other host of the podcast is Casey Rodarmor, the founder of the Ordinals protocol, so Erin is also jokingly called "Ordinals Mommy".

Ephemera is Erin Redwing's new series. From the perspective of artistic image presentation, it is a dynamic, interactive 3D time recording instrument. Ephemera looks at Bitcoin from a completely new perspective - a decentralized clock. This new currency of this generation is used as a timekeeping method (the complete log recorded by the Bitcoin blockchain, imagine that an alien civilization visiting the earth thousands or tens of thousands of years later has dug up a Bitcoin full node?) and is decoupled from the centralized Gregorian calendar timekeeping method, combining it with the decentralized timekeeping method of nature - astronomical timekeeping.

The Ephemera timepiece screen will display the corresponding planetary ephemeris data, solar phases, and lunar phases according to the mining date of the satoshis burned. At the beginning of each Bitcoin block difficulty adjustment (approximately once every two weeks), 16 Ephemeras showing different dates will be available for bidding. Bidders can choose their favorite dates to bid on. Finally, the Ephemera instruments corresponding to the 16 dates with the highest bids at the end of the Bitcoin block difficulty adjustment will be sent to the successful bidder.

We cannot imagine how we will rise, fall, or even die, but we believe in the eternity of Bitcoin and hope to leave a clue to our past existence.

Airhead

Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX and one of the biggest names in the Crypto community, directly tweeted about the project (@AirheadFun).

Why? Because there is a Bitcoin wallet called Oyl Wallet behind this project, and Arthur Hayes has also invested in Oyl Wallet.

This project is a 3D PFP series with a total supply of 10,000. The official operation style is also a neurotic style that easily triggers degen discussions and favorites in the circle. Judging from one of the tweets, this is very likely not a Free Mint series. Therefore, although it has a big background, it is still necessary to observe whether the final casting price is reasonable.

Honzomomo

Although UniSat’s Bitcoin native scaling solution Fractal will not be officially launched until September, the test network has attracted a large number of Chinese and foreign users to participate even though it claims there are no testing rewards.

As the first NFT series on Fractal, honzomomo (@honzomomo) will be launched in September, and its official account has already started operation. Considering the popularity of Fractal, we should keep an eye on this project.

Terpolly

TerpLayer is a Bitcoin infrastructure project that does a variety of things, including stablecoins, oracles, and cross-chain.

Terpolly (@TerpollyBTC) is an NFT series launched by the project itself, with a total supply of 3333. Compared with Scribbles by 0xVM, which we introduced before, the empowerment of this one is not revealed at all, so it is more appropriate to classify it as PFP for the time being. However, if there are empowerments related to token airdrops in the future, it can be considered as expected, because its official Twitter profile says "empowered bird".

OctoGlyphs

These cute pixelated octopuses (@OctoGlyphs) are not only all engraved on Block 9 Satoshi, but are also "rune inscriptions". They have etched a total of 10,000 runes on 400 blocks at an average rate of 25 runes per block. These runes contain cute pixelated octopus images and have the same single parent inscription to keep the entire series aligned and neat.

In the future, each OctoGlyphs holder will also be able to claim 88,888 of their issued rune tokens.

Although the art style is easily reminiscent of Node Monkey, and shortly after the runes were launched, players spontaneously took up a picture to occupy a rune ticker and then made a series of pictures, but OctoGlyphs' overall narrative is currently the most complete, and a reasonable price can give this project a chance to perform well.

Inscribed Fakes

Ordinals Pepe themed PFP project Inscribed Pepes and Fake Rares jointly launched an art collection with more than 20 artists involved in the creation of the collection. There are rumors that Jack Butcher and "Father of BOME" @Darkfarms1 will also join. Considering that Fake Rares founder @ScrillaVentura is also an OG-level Rare Pepe creator, I would not be too surprised if this rumor is finally confirmed to be true.

The series (@inscribedfakes) does not yet have an exact casting date, but from the picture above we can see that they mentioned the Ordinals event to be held in Nashville (not the same one attended by Trump, but an event organized by the Ordinals circle itself), and more details will presumably be revealed at that time.

Moon Zero

At first glance, it looks like a Japanese anime-style PFP project (@MoonZeroHQ), but in fact it claims to build an accelerator for Web3 IP, anime, and games. Based on previous experience, its empowerment will tend to be a large community ecosystem that provides holders with whitelists for cooperative projects.

Behind it is The Parallax, a Web3 media company founded by Patrick Dang, who started his sales career at Oracle and later became a sales teacher, training over 50,000 students.

As he said, many Web3 projects are confused about how to market themselves better. Since he is a successful salesperson, I listed this project. Dude, can you compete with Luca Netz at a reasonable price?
