The Bitcoin Flower Saga
What to know about an Nft Before purchasing
In the World of Nft’s there are several things people look for to purchase one for themselves. Rarity is the 1st thing people who know what they are doing look for. The highest rarity for the best price in most cases. The Blockchain the Project is built upon is very important for price, profit and ability to resell. Next is going to be the community behind that Nft project and the team themselves. If it’s a great dev team and a solid idea the community will be drawn to it. Now Nft’s are considered art to some and that leads us into our next area to look for when buying an nft and that is the Meaning behind the (art) Nft. This is where we introduce our Star and that is the Bitcoin Flower Trilogy (Soon to have 4).
Bitcoin Flower
The Bitcoin Flower is one of the rarest Nft’s out there in the Crypto world today rivaled only by Crypto Punks and Bayc. The Bitcoin flower meets all of these criteria mentioned above on what to look for in an Nft. Even the least rare Bitcoin Flowers go for around 250 Icp or so and the most rare or coolest looking or favorite of someone can go for as much as someone is willing to charge and someone else is willing to pay. It’s valuable and I believe that adds to the rarity not just of single pieces, but the project as a whole and makes it where most who buy really thought about it and love it. So this Project is built on the Internet Computer and that right there makes buying, selling and making profit alot easier as you don’t have to pay enormous gas fees. Plus the Internet Computer is the fastest growing Web 3 Ecosystem in blockchain today and it brings in bright, highly talented artists, such as Ludo who created the Bitcoin Flower and it’s counterparts.
The meaning of the Bitcoin Flower series is probably what most of us are originally drawn to as the art is depicting the faults with traditional Financial systems in place right now and that they will not survive. So the art is a flower growing from the grave of a Financial institute such as; American Express, Finance, Visa, Inflation and many more as well as other art features and subtleties that make each one unique and you can find one to fit you. So this is meaningful to anyone who has had issues with the way the financial world is run today and it cannot sustain indefinitely and has been affected directly by it. So with all of these things you would think that is enough right, well Ludo outdid himself and made an Eth Flower series as well and a Pineapple Punk we will talk about both next.
Eth Flower
This is the Ethereum version of the Bitcoin Flower except instead of Bitcoin it is Ethereum as the Base for the Flower. Basically Bitcoin and Ethereum can be the solution to traditional finance and bring it to everyone through awesome artist inspiration and like minded people who love what crypto does for the individual and brings money out of the hands of governments and Financial Institutions that control our World today like each one depicted in this series! Now this has all the same requirements that Bitcoin Flower does as I explained in the intro earlier but is a bit less Icp for it. You can get a good Eth flower for around 85 Icp instead of over 200 for the Bitcoin Flower. Now my goal is to have them all and I started with an Eth Flower that I paid 85 Icp for and will save for a Bitcoin Flower and Pineapple Punk as I love this Series. I also heard if you hold a btc flower and an eth flower soon they will be airdropping an Icp Flower to those that hold both of them. So I hope I can get it before the Airdrop then I also need a pineapple punk which is open to the public tomorrow Aug 1st.
Pineapple Punk
So the Saga continues today with an airdrop for all Btc Flower holders that held a btc flower at the time of snapshot July 15th 4pm 2022. You get 1 Pineapple Punk for every Btc Flower you hold. If you own 5 Btc flowers you can get 5 Pineapple Punks airdropped on July 31st which is today. This is a different style of art as it actually has a cool pineapple humanoid that is pretty Sleek and has amazing features. This is the newest piece in the collection, but not the last. As the Icp Flower is our biggest area of interest right now in my circle of friends and colleagues. We want to have both Btc Flower and Eth Flower to get that Icp Flower airdropped as soon as it is ready. There are 7,777 Pineapple punks and the 1st one was drawn over 10 years ago and represents humans in stories. This one is the coolest looking of the bunch but i love the meaning of them all! Here is the link to get them when public sale is live https://jqq4s-cqaaa-aaaad-qb2qq-cai.raw.ic0.app/sale/pineapple-punks
ICP FLOWER
Coming Soon! This is rumored to be given out to those who hold the Btc Flower and Eth Flower both via airdrop. It makes me hopeful that there is a possible airdrop for holding all of them possibly, lol. I will do an article directly on the Icp Flower when it comes out! This is all speculation right now as this is a rumor. Let’s hope it’s true and not just wishful thinking.
Where to Purchase
If you’re looking to Acquire one or more of these artwork gems known as Btc flowers or Eth Flowers it is easy to find just go to https://entrepot.app/ and create a wallet or connect if you have one. Search Marketplace for Btc and Eth flower as well as Pineapple Punks which after tommorow will be open to the public. Those who were whitelisted and got the airdrop, congrats and I hope to join you for the Icp flower drop! These could end up on secondary marketplaces like CCC or ICMARKET but that is just my wishful thinking. If you need a wallet or to find an nft marketplace i mentioned above check the Dfinity page of my website and it has alot of great links and I will update it soon with even more awesome Icp Ecosystem guides and links.
Thanks Ludo, Dfinity and Entrepot
I just want to thank the artist Ludo for his amazing idea which led to a massive collection of incredible Art in Nft form. The Btc Flower is a bit spendy and being on a tight budget I know it might seem impossible to acquire one. But the price is actually reasonable but besides that it has a great chance to really take off the next bull run and give Crypto punks and Bored apes a run for their money. Thank you for choosing to build your collection on the Internet Computer as it is so cool that Icp is integrating Btc and Eth and Ludo made his Btc and Eth FLower on Internet Computer and now an Icp flower is coming too. It’s like it was meant to be built here and exactly like it was. Shout out to Ludo for that, not sure if that was a happy accident or a genius idea but i think the latter. Now I also want to thank Dfinity and The Internet Computer for being attractive enough to bring in amazing talent like this and offering a great place to build this kind of project. Also last but not least let’s Thank Entrepot for Listing these amazing pieces, giving us a great platform to showcase our collections and a place to receive these airdrops from. So without Entrepot Airdrops would take longer or be more work for the team.
