Starting Nov. 30, 2023, upgrade of OCM Genesis from Ethereum to Bitcoin will be held in portal openings. Upgraded BTC OCM Genesis assets have already been inscribed on Bitcoin, and are waiting to be sent to ETH OCM Genesis owners who choose to upgrade their Genesis to Bitcoin. At each upgrade portal opening, ETH OCM Genesis owners can select the ETH Genesis they wish to teleburn, and claim the upgraded BTC OCM Genesis.
First 10k images of a collection inscribed on Bitcoin: Inscription 20219
The inscription number for Genesis of 20219 matches the exact year (2021) and month (9, September) that Genesis was first launched on Ethereum
First 10k collection to use Parent-Child Provenance
First 10k collection inscribed on Block 9 sats
First 10k collection inscribed on 450x sats
First 10k collection inscribed on sequential sats
First 10k generative art collection created on-chain from the sat number of the inscription
Sat number range of 450178xxxxx is one of the lowest ranges, and last five digits match the Genesis number. Only 178 other ranges like this are lower in Block 9.
At the time of the 30,000 inscriptions on Block 9 for the three Genesis 10k collections, there had only been a total of around 10,000 inscriptions ever created on Block 9. Genesis made up almost 75% of all inscriptions on Block 9.

First 10k cursed collection
First 10k generative art collection created on Bitcoin using the satoshi number of the inscription to generate the art
Smallest total file size for a 10k collection of images at 1.06 MB
Lowest total creation fee for a 10k collection at 0.082 BTC
First on-chain 10k PFP collection created using a single Ethereum transaction when first launched on Ethereum on September 11, 2021
First 10k collection to officially migrate from Ethereum to Bitcoin
First fully “charmed” 10k collection. Each of the 10k inscriptions is charmed by the Ord protocol.
In November 2023, OCM Genesis is made the move from Ethereum to Bitcoin. Here's a comprehensive guide on what awaits OCM Genesis holders transitioning from Ethereum to Bitcoin. Brace yourselves — there's A LOT! Before diving into the details, bear in mind that all the features are 100% entirely on-chain on Bitcoin. Witness firsthand why this is an upgrade, not merely a migration to Bitcoin.
To view your OCM Genesis on Bitcoin, navigate to Osura:
https://osura.com/#/collections/ocm-genesis
You can also view them on Ordinals at: https://ordinals.com/sat/450178xxxxx
// replace xxxxx with the 5-digits of your OCM Genesis ID number.
For example:
OCM Genesis #3: https://ordinals.com/sat/45017800003
OCM Genesis #9017: https://ordinals.com/sat/45017809017
OCM Genesis #10000: https://ordinals.com/sat/45017810000
A sat is a small piece of Bitcoin. When you upgrade, you will own the sat identified on your sat page, along with all of the inscriptions on it. The sats that your OCM Genesis is inscribed on are significant:
Your sat is on Block 9. This is the earliest Bitcoin block in circulation.
Your sat is on sat range 450x. Block 9 includes sat 450x through 499x. Sat 450x represents the lowest numbered bitcoin in circulation. Only 2% of Block 9 sats are in sat range 450x.
Your sat offset is 178-xxxxx, where xxxxx is the ID number for your OCM Genesis. All OCM Genesis are inscribed on sequentially numbered sats in this specific sat range. 450-178-xxxxx is a good way to remember where your OCM lives.
At the bottom of your OCM Genesis sat page, you will see four inscriptions:
OCM Genesis: Certificate of Ownership ** ** This will be inscribed onto your sat during your OCM Genesis upgrade process.
OCM Genesis is composed of 4 collections inscribed in the same sat range, so they are bound together and trade together. Each of these inscriptions is applied onto your single sat via re-inscription. In other words, these four inscriptions are inseparable and permanently intertwined on your Block 9 - 450x sat. Plus, you'll retain ownership of the teleburned ETH Genesis. The ETH Genesis asset, while not tradable or transferrable, is “soul-bound” to the BTC Genesis inscription. Whoever owns the BTC Genesis ordinal also owns the ETH Genesis asset.
That is, ownership of 5 digital artifacts!
The Perspectives of your OCM Genesis changes with each passing minute. During the odd minutes, you'll see 'OCM Genesis: 20219' displayed, and in the even minutes, it's 'OCM Genesis: Deconstructed (Objects, Code, Motion)'. Interact with your OCM Genesis: Perspectives with the following keys:
Press '1' - return to the 'Perspectives' view while in the 'OCM Genesis: 20219' (key '2') or 'OCM Genesis: Deconstructed' (key '3') views
Press '2' - view OCM Genesis: 20219
Press '3' - view OCM Genesis: Deconstructed
Press '4' - view the inscription numbers of its two parents (Inscription #20219 and Inscription #464551), plus the ID # of your OCM Genesis - displaying its parent-child provenance.
Press 'm' - view the metadata (traits/DNA) of your OCM Genesis. Popular meta-traits like matching, 4 zeros, and naked are included within the metadata

OCM Genesis: Certificate of Ownership
This inscription will certify that you own not only all the inscriptions on this sat, but also the teleburned OCM Genesis on Ethereum. Do note, however, that access to the OCM Genesis on Ethereum will no longer be available, tradable or transferable because it would be teleburned in the Genesis to BTC upgrade process.
First 10k collection to use parent-child provenance
OCM Genesis is composed of 4 collections inscribed in the same sat range, so they are bound together and trade together.
Notable Satributes: First Transaction, Nakamoto, Vintage, Block 9 - 450x sats
Even on just the surface, there is a lot to unpack here. Under the surface? The engineering complexity, craftsmanship and care woven into these pieces are intrinsic to the art itself. itself.
