<h2>Definitions</h2>

<p>A <dfn>legendary</dfn> satoshi is the first satoshi mined in the first block after a halving. They are <em>exceedingly</em> rare. Three have been mined, and there is one legendary sat per 6,336,854 BTC in circulation.</p>

<p>An <dfn>epic</dfn> satoshi is the first satoshi mined in the first block after a difficulty adjustment period. They are <em>very</em> rare. 361 have been mined, and there is one epic sat per 52,423 BTC in circulation.</p>

<p>A <dfn>rare</dfn> satoshi is the first satoshi mined in every block. They are moderately rare. More than 730,000 have been mined, and there is one rare sat per 26 BTC in circulation.</p>

<p>There is only one <dfn>illusive</dfn> satoshi, that with ordinal number 623624999999999. Why is left as an exercise to the reader.</p>

<p>All sats mined in block 124724 are <dfn>cursed</dfn>. Again, figuring out why is left as an exercise to the reader.</p>

<p>A <dfn>repeater</dfn> satoshi's ordinal number consists of repititions a single digit, for example, 777777777, or 3333. They are <em>extremely</em> rare. 137 have been mined, or one per 138,138 BTC in circulation.</p>

<p>A <dfn>round</dfn> satoshi's ordinal number has many trailing zeros. The more, the rarer. To reflect this, the bounty for round satoshies is variable.</p>

<p>An <dfn>intelligible</dfn> satoshi is one whose <em>name</em> is an word or sentence. The code mapping ordinals to names is <a href="https://github.com/casey/ord/blob/79183599126485e73027fb34686cc0f29f56776d/src/ordinal.rs#L30">here</a>.</p>

<h2>Rules</h2>

<ol>
<li>Find an ordinal qualifying for a bounty.</li>
<li>Make sure that the bounty has not already been claimed by verifying that no transactions have been sent to the bounty address.</li>
<li>Send a transaction that sends the ordinal to the bounty address.</li>
<li>Send a DM to <a href="https://twitter.com/rodarmor">@rodarmor</a>.</li>
<li>The bounty will be sent back to the address that the ordinal was sent from.</li>
</ol>

<h2>Discussion</h2>

<ul>
<li>There are no ordinal wallets or transaction construction libraries. However, <a href="https://github.com/casey/ord/blob/master/bip.mediawiki">ordinal theory</a> is extremely simple. A clever hacker should be able to write code to manipulate ordinals in no time.</li>

<li>Extremely rare ordinals are nearly impossible to find. However, there are ways that an enterprising indivdual of limited means can still obtain rare sats.</li>

<li>Round and intelligible sats are the easiest to find. You might want to start with them.</li>

<li>Each of the bounty addresses is an <a href="https://opendime.com/">Opendime</a>, so we don't accidentally lose any rare sats that are sent to us.</li>

<li>For more information about ordinals, check out the <a href="/">main page</a> for an overview, or the <a href="https://github.com/casey/ord/blob/master/bip.mediawiki">BIP</a> for the technical details.</li>

<li>Ordinal theory was lost to the sands of time, and is only now being rediscovered. You can help by researching rare ordinals.</li>
</ul>

<p>Good luck and godspeed!</p>

<h1>THERE WILL ONLY EVER BE 2,099,999,997,690,000 ORDINALS</h1>

<p>Ordinals are identities for Bitcoin. They can be used for anything that you might want to publicly own and transfer in decentralized fashion. NFTs, accounts, domains. Whatever.</p>

<p><i>At the moment, ordinals are a fun art project. There are no wallets or markets, and there might never be. Or, they might explode in popularity and take over the world. Who can say?</i></p>

<h2>What are ordinals?</h2>

Ordinals are numbers, like this: 804766073970493. Every satoshi, which is ¹⁄₁₀₀₀₀₀₀₀₀ of a bitcoin, has an ordinal, and every ordinal has a satoshi. When a satoshi changes hands, so does its ordinal. There are a lot of satoshis, and so there are a lot of ordinals. Two quadrillion ninety-nine trillion nine hundred ninety-nine billion nine hundred ninety-seven million six hundred ninety thousand, to be precise.
