📣 COMMONERS REVEAL ANNOUNCEMENT 📣
The Commoners reveal is scheduled 24 hours from now - Friday Jan 26 at 3PM PST!
Reveal details available on the website and in the thread below! 👇

1)
Commoners have successfully minted the first Bitcoin Ordinal 10k collection on uncommon sats.
Thank you to EVERYONE, especially our technical partners, who stepped up and helped make this collection a reality.
On-chain reveal details are coming later this week. 👀
🔥 BREAKING 🔥
The Commoners parent inscription (inscribed on an uncommon), which controls the art layers, 10,000 collection list, and reveal logic, has been provably BURNED.
The 10,000 Commoners have been locked in forever, on-chain!
🚨 MINT PUSHED BACK 24 HOURS 🚨
To ensure a successful launch, we're addressing key infrastructure enhancements during our final review.
The mint is now rescheduled for Tuesday, Jan 23rd at 2PM PST.

🚨 BREAKING: COMMONERS MINTING NOW 🚨
Easiest ways to mint or buy an unrevealed Commoner:
1️⃣ Mint now: commoners.com/mint
2️⃣ Trading: Commoners are equal until revealed in a few days. Stay tuned for marketplace links.
3️⃣ Advanced users: you can download the inscription file from our site (everyone inscribes the same file on an uncommon sat, regardless of which service you use): commoners.com/mint
💡 All Commoners inscriptions will show the same placeholder image until revealed.
🚨 Remember, only the first 10,000 Commoners inscriptions will be valid, so be careful minting later in the mint. Buying secondary is always safe.
😀 Good luck!
Frequently asked question: "Can I mint on a black uncommon?"
Answer: "No, you can only mint a commoner on an uncommon sat. Black uncommon sats will not be indexed."
Commoners have been successfully randomly revealed on-chain. 🫡
This project required a carefully crafted set of parent/child transactions in just the right order. We're excited to share the full technical debrief with you all later, but for now, enjoy your Commoners! 🔥
💎 Fun fact: 8 Commoners (0.08%) were inscribed on 2009 uncommon sats
1 has been traded, 1 is listed for 2BTC (🤯) on @MEonBTC and the rest remain dormant 😴

💎 Fun fact: Commoner #4892 is a 1 of 1 tie-dye grail!
⏳ Reveal today at 3PM PST!
Commoners are playful, punky characters, hand drawn by @harrietjrclarke and an experiment on bridging art and "rare sats" on Bitcoin. They don't have any utility or roadmap.
You can view the full 10,000 collection here: commoners.com/attributes

Once you have uncommon sats, you can check that they show up correctly on the @luminexio minting page: luminex.io/ordinals/mint?col…
Advanced users will be able to mint directly with an inscribing service of your choice and the instructions on our site: commoners.com/mint

🔥 BREAKING 🔥
We’ve just secured the 1/1 double rainbow Commoner from the open market! This Commoner is especially meaningful as it’s been our PFP since nearly day one.
This is the first Commoner added to the Commoners treasury. 👀
Commoners will be revealed at Bitcoin block height 827541!
Please be prepared to check your revealed Commoners on commoners.com/attributes, and remember there will be a delay before the revealed commoners are refreshed across all marketplaces!
.@sat_stats noticed that 7.1k uncommons moved in the last 96 hours. 👀
What happens during mint is anyone's guess, but in the meantime, have you checked out the full 10k Commoner collection at commoners (dot) com (slash) attributes? :)
Uncommon whale sightings 🐳
The @Commoners_ mint has mobilized 7,175 "sequestered" uncommons in the past few days
"Sequester" basically means isolated by sat hunters
This sh*t might actually mint out...
[STAGE 4️⃣] We will then inscribe a final upgrade to the renderer with the shuffled inscription list before the upgrade logic is locked forever. Due to the nature of the mempool, this may take up to 90 minutes.
Once the renderer upgrade is confirmed on-chain, the collection will be revealed on-chain! 🎉
Marketplaces may temporarily continue to display the placeholder images while the renderer upgrade is being confirmed in the blockchain. Our team will work with the major marketplaces to resolve this as quickly as possible! 🫡
5)
[STAGE 3️⃣] To ensure fair randomness, the list of inscription IDs will first get sorted alphabetically. Then, the block hash of the selected future block will be used as entropy to shuffle the list of inscription IDs.
The resulting shuffled list will act as the map for mapping inscription IDs to specific Commoners.
The shuffled list will be immediately available on commoners.com/reveal once the shuffle block height has been hit.
At this point, the collection attributes will be considered finalized and immutable. 🔒
4)
[STAGE 2️⃣] At the scheduled reveal time, we'll announce a future block height that'll be within 4 blocks of that time.
📣 Make sure to turn on alerts on Twitter/X! 📣
The block hash of that block will be used as entropy to shuffle the list of valid Commoners in the next stage. ⛓️
3)
Due to the technical nature of the open mint, everyone inscribed the same file. This makes for a unique reveal mechanic!
The reveal will happen in a few stages.
[STAGE 1️⃣] The first 10,000 valid Commoners have been indexed and the full unshuffled list is now available at commoners.com/reveal 📋
