Explanation 👇

[SpaceLlama @SpaceLlamaNFT]

Blockchain is an incredible invention for digital collectibles.

They went from being basically unviable before it's creation to potentially near perfect...especially once smart contract chains came around.

Many people realized this very early on, but it was tricky to make things work correctly. The vast majority failed. A few didn't.

I was a little late to the game, not buying any NFTs until 2 punks in February 2021 because they were (incorrectly) marketed as the first NFTs on ethereum. It has always been obvious to me to just buy the best OG collectibles.

Somehow this isn't a super popular strat atm. You're supposed to buy older ones that are "culturally relevant" even if they don't really work or newer ones that have teams and budgets trying to develop other content for the IP. This has given me 5 years to hoard all the true grail collectibles.

Eventually the rest of the world wakes up, whether its in 1, 5, 10, or 25 years and these things will only be obtainable by the insanely rich. Until then, I'm just gonna chill and maybe stack some more.

The best stuff isn't that hard to figure out these days:

People are building stuff using the old 2015 build mechanics. Very cool!

Third sculpture ever built on Etheria v0.9.

Nice work @0xzxch!

[Etheria ⬢ @etheria_feed]

@mahatango747 For versions v0.9 and v1.0, treat them just like any other NFT. The base tokens are wrapped safely in a 721 contract and are traded on OpenSea.

[Etheria ⬢ @etheria_feed]

Announcement: I'm going to sell an Etheria v0.9 or v1.0 tile every month for the rest of this year. I didn't create Etheria to hoard a bunch of tiles forever.

Get your OpenSea WETH bids in if you're interested. - Cyrus, the creator

Another tile sale tomorrow, May 1st. Get a bid up on OpenSea if you're interested.

[Etheria ⬢ @etheria_feed]

I will sell another Etheria v1.0 or v0.9 tile tomorrow.

Current high bid is 1.51 ETH on *some* v1.0 tiles. Don't just look at the global. Look at individual tile bids, too.

Sold the first one today. 524v1.0 for 1.6 ETH

Will sell another on Wednesday April 1st.

[cartoon.the🦄.eth @cartoonitunes]

Just proved the source code for the Augur crowdsale - one of the first token sales on Ethereum, August 2015, 610 ETH (~$2.1M) sitting untouched since the sale.

Written in Serpent, Vitalik's Python-like smart contract language before Solidity took over.

Now the code is free 🎉

5/ Etheria (2015) @etheria_feed
Etheria is a perfect case study because you can literally watch the seed model evolve across versions (v0.9 to v1.2). It goes from randomness from last block towards explicit user choice.

Etheria v0.9 farming
v0.9 derives the farm output from the previous block hash: bytes32 last = blockhash(block.number - 1);
Then it appends 10 new blocks, each with a type based on one byte of that hash: blocktype = int8(uint8(last[i]) % 32);

So the numbers map to block types so that each byte becomes one of 32 possible outcomes.
It’s pseudo-random but not unpredictable in an adversarial sense, because the previous block hash is already known when you’re about to send your transaction.

Two consequences:

(1) Timing
You can’t pick a specific result inside the contract, but you can decide when to farm. If the current previous block hash would yield something you don’t like, you wait for another window and try again.

(2) Inclusion
Even if you compute a favorable next-block outcome, your transaction still has to land where you expect. Builders and proposers control ordering, so slipping one block forward or backward changes the hash and the seed.

Etheria may seem like one of those "no utility metaverse JPEGs", but that's not the case.

Its a limited supply world of ownable unique land from 2015 with onchain coordination, indexing, elevation, shapes, physics like (glitchy) gravity, names, statuses, and gen building. 🧵

[Etheria ⬢ @etheria_feed]

@dankpepe_eth It may have to do with your OS. Works for me with Brave & stock Ubuntu Linux x64. Give Brave a try? It's Chrome based and better for privacy.

NFT projects that are >10 years old.

1. Etheria

End of list.

[Ξthereum Relics @ethereumrelics]

An old, but important visualization of Ethereum Relics consistently getting pushed further into the historical timeline of an ever growing technology.

[Ξthereum Relics @ethereumrelics]

Etheria references two contracts in its code:

1. MapElevationStorage
2. BlockDefStorage

Both of these contracts were deployed on October 17, 2015.

The v0.9 Etheria contract and tile 4,5 block structure were created on the same day, October 19, 2015.

@fun_nft @coinapalooza @AyeAyeCoin2015 @peperium2017 Because it's a perfect distillation of how they moved the goalposts. DCinvestor has never mentioned (certainly never promoted) Etheria, to my knowledge, even though it is exactly what he describes in the tweet.

[DCinvestor @DCinvestor]

don't want to wade too far into this, but Punks obviously aren't a bet on IP rights, communities, or anything like that

they are widely considered to be the first NFTs on Ethereum

that's the only reason why they're important, and that's the only reason they need tbh

[Etheria ⬢ @etheria_feed]

@PleurerP @permaweave @BlackstarXXI XCP tokens are not "on Bitcoin" as often claimed. There is no satoshi consensus mechanism behind them whatsoever. Social consensus only.

Why? Vitalik explains here: "BTC Metacoins are basically impossible... it was never designed for that."
