Let's say Baseheads reach 88% mint progress by Block 888888.β³
Raffling 888888 RSICβ’GENESISβ’RUNE by @rune_coin could be fun!
At today's market cap that prize is ~$600 USD, but 8 months ago it was $17k.π―
What might it be at block 888889?π€

Listening to the founder of @Baseheads_BTC. So much knowledge. It seems like a simple project (on purpose), but there is a lot of engineering behind it.

Last week, I minted a @Baseheads_BTC because I found the collection pretty innovative.
The heads generatively animate new expressions in my wallet very time a new block is mined.
Gm and cheers to those innovating on bitcoin.

The provably random nature of Bitcoin block hashing provides the perfect bedrock for a raffle system, as well as fairly distributing WL allocations.
Simply select a block height, & the Basehead matching the hash offset wins. Or select a block range for a fixed number of WLs.ποΈ
I vaguely eluded to this b4, but something ppl haven't considered is how @Baseheads_BTC will be gamified.π
Each Basehead's blockhash offset is essentially a raffle ticket. π«
I can choose a block height, & who ever owns the matching HEX value of that block, wins.
As an example, the hash for block 883624 ends in (4,e,1). The Basehead with that matching offset is #1250 (unminted), so the holder would win whatever prize was assigned to that raffle.
The 1st giveaway will be a @rune_coin RSIC miner worth 20x the Basehead mint fee. Future prizes will include other ordinals, runes, straight up sats, & who knows what else... π Not all prizes will be that valuable, but some will be more valuable.
I wanted a vibe check on who liked the Baseheads for the aesthetic before announcing this aspect, and I've found my Day1 tribe. π
Snapshot taken before this tweet.
Day 1 minters will get something special in the future. But this raffle format can live on in perpetuity.
You can view a Basehead's offset in their source code - see the green text in the top left of this image:
You can also see it in their @MEonBTC metadata in the bottom right of this image:
In the event Baseheads remain unminted and one of those wins, we'll do a reroll until an actual holder wins.
This introduces a new way to incorporate Bitcoin block data into the ordinals ecosystem, and adds some fun. I hope to collab with other creators in this space to raffle off some of their artwork &/or WL's, but already have a number of prizes slated to kick things off.
For round 1 with a common RSIC miner as the prize, the raffle's block height is 256 blocks from the current height at time of writing (883632) - roughly 40 hours from now - which fittingly makes it block 883888.π±
Good luck, and enjoy the game! π

Public mint is open for @Baseheads_BTC
Want an inscription in your wallets that does this every time a new block is confirmed?

Have you heard about Bitcoin's magic number?
πͺD9B4BEF9
This is the first 4 bytes in every block, that serve as a constant value to identify mainnet messages between nodes.
When converted from HEX to Decimal, it's a prime number like this: 4190024921
See both in our PFP/header

All the images in this thread are the SAME inscription, demonstrating how @Baseheads_BTC update every block.

Basehead emojis serve as a visual cue of Bitcoin block confirmations.
Each trait is mapped to Base16 Hexadecimals, and assigned to a hash value, which allow them to generatively animate new expressions in your portfolio every time a new block is mined.
Tick Tock, Next Emoji.π
