how to GOB?
Phase 1: The Split - begins block 836144
remember the default option is to do nothing and HODL
you don’t have to play Phase 1, but if you’re feeling lucky it’s got the biggest upside
DETAILED tutorial and video 🧵
who got GOBBED?
the short answer is over 160 projects
the goal was as many active collectors as possible
active communities, active teams, builders, collectors, contributors and artists both new and old in Ordinals
here’s the list:
Phase 1: 1% chance of getting a Genesis by RISKING in 1st cycle
Phase 2: takes 256 Tier 8 inscriptions to merge up to Genesis
to RISK or not to RISK
GOB theory 🧠
cycle 1 complete ☠️
click into your inscription on Magic Eden
who survived?
who died?
index in progress
be careful buying until we tweet again with the updated metadata
GOB listed
transparency background on the collection page is white so the text is invisible
click into inscription to view
all inscriptions are identical until the game begins

zig when others zag
GOB is not here to follow
so fuck it
we spent 2.1 BTC on block 840001 for the meme
dumb? maybe
but we’re a memecoin
so we meme
Number 1 matters, but we new that was going well over 5 BTC
so we mixed it up
NUMBA 1 on block 840001
There’s 689 others on…
no need to reinscribe yet
wait until we provide official links and tutorials
@luminexio
and
@satingio
are building custom tools
we highly recommend sending to a fresh wallet before connecting to any sites
be careful of scammers
GOB rarity
all 88888 GOB’s were born identical
rarity and final supply is decided by the actions of all players up until the halvening
some in the SPLIT, but even more in the MERGE
you and bitcoin decide
living art
Ordinals were too complex for marketplaces early days
we did everything on spreadsheets
people faded because it was too hard
but builders adapted and marketplaces helped ordinals become one of the fastest growing ecosystems in crypto
currently GOB is too complex for…
halfway into cycle 1 and over 5% of GOB’s have been risked
much more than
@gobfatherbtc
predicted
deflation is only going to increase
we knew crypto was for the brave, but you guys outdid yourselves
is GOB is good
70 blocks until you learn your fate
big thanks to
@ordinalswallet
for giving us access to update immediately with their API
full collection images and filters showing as it should
some numbers may not be exactly right but should update
ps. check tier 1 filters 👀
T - 3 blocks until phase 1 begins
only connect to either of these 2 links:
anything else we have not vetted
you have 144 blocks to RISK so take your time
GOB safely 🔳
bulk reinscription now live on
@satingio
big thanks to the team for the quick work and the GOB discount for the community
you can now RISK (reinscribe) as many GOBs as you want in one transaction

GOB colors
each tier has a different color
TIER 1 - Red
in the SPLIT phase each inscription is monochrome but the hue/range in that tier varies randomly throughout the collection
this is not the same if they FREEZE 👀
this is also not the same for the merge
turns out when you do an 88k airdrop and then add metadata it’s too much data for infrastructure to handle
thanks for the patience GOB’s
collection is indexed but
@MEonBTC
needs to change a few things to allow for such a large file
DED removed soon
almost there
Phase 1 - Cycle 1 Results
the maths did not favor the GOB’s
Phase 1 - Cycle 2 is now open
ends block 836432
1.6% chance of survival to FREEZE in Tier 1
same process as Cycle 1
are you RISKING?
Phase 2 rules:
note: Phase 2 doesn’t begin until next week
you CANNOT merge until Phase 2 begins on Block 837440
we released the rules now so people can properly strategize and play both phases with all information
fire up the spreadsheets
GOB ON
Game of Blocks can take a while to understand
@gobfatherbtc
will slowly explain the game so it’s not too much all at once
the good part is, you CANT lose by just holding
you just might not get the ultimate upside
we meme and joke around but
@VitalikButerin
posted an interesting article about meme coins today
a few quotes which resonate with what we’re trying to do with GOB and why we took the risk to create the first fully onchain game on Bitcoin:
‘don't just make a coin, make a game’…
