1/ NFT REWARDS
There are three perks for every NFT holder from Immutable Record NFT Collection
#1
!
One of those perks is a signed copy of the New York Times from
@StuartHaber
and
@ScottStornetta
.
1/ If you haven’t heard the news yet, we’re launching an NFT collection based on 30 years of scientific research from our team.
Here are some more details about the NFT itself and the AUCTION👇
We have decided to push back the launch date of Immutable Record NFT Collection
#1
.
We are so excited to launch this, but our team needs a little more time as we finalize smart contract royalties.
Thank you for your patience as we work through this.
More updates soon.
12/ Enter the initial collection of Immutable Records.
The first of 12 NFTs is scheduled to launch on 11/14/23. Join us on this adventure that is thirty years in the making!

2/ We are launching an NFT collection highlighting 12 consecutive weeks of hash roots published from our founder’s proto-blockchain in the 1990s.
Built on
@Kadena_IO
Marmalade V2, each NFT of our first collection represents an event during a specific week’s block.
4/ The first NFT commemorates Sunday, January 12, 1992.
We chose that day because there was an article in the business section of the New York Times— the first mainstream press of our team’s work.
What were we working on?
11/ This is a collection of history that is marking moments of history from the time the original blockchain came to life.
The events range from serious to whimsical. We chose an artist to illustrate one singular event that occurred during that moment in history.
7/ SOME FACTS
In total, Stuart and Scott were cited three different times by Satoshi in the Bitcoin whitepaper.
There were only 8 citations in the Bitcoin whitepaper.
No other author was cited more than once.
3/ Launched in 1991, seventeen years pre
#Bitcoin
, our proto-blockchain was a new system of maintaining a universal record of world events – to know a specific event occurred on an exact date & time.
This NFT launch commemorates THE founding moment in blockchain history.
1/ FIRST DROP PREVIEW
NFT
#1
from Immutable Record’s Innagural NFT collection is scheduled to be live starting next week.
Here are some details on the drop 🧵
10/ That’s right… nearly twenty years before Bitcoin changed the world forever, another blockchain existed that still operates to this day.
The collection is not an NFT for NFT’s sake. It’s not for the sake of JPEG art.
9/ It took time to create a solution that worked.
Our team realized that attaching time to a string of bits is a social process.
These assumptions took Stuart and Scott to the invention of the proto-blockchain.
A new record-keeping era was born on October 13, 1991.
5/ ENTER THE DIGITAL TIME-STAMPING PROBLEM
The scientists on our team were solving the digital time-stamping problem.
They needed to answer the question: what is the best way to ensure a digital record’s integrity?
The answer was building a blockchain.
8/ Having a trusted entity be the integrity agent was a straightforward solution, but it was enormously unsatisfying.
Scott and Stuart wanted to do this without trusting any agent or computation assumptions.
Cryptographic hashing and public key methods were available.
6/ They wanted to solve this problem in a way that did not rely on trusting a central entity.
Scientists and Kadena advisors
@StuartHaber
and
@ScottStornetta
began answering the question.
Scott and Stuart are the most cited scientists in the Bitcoin whitepaper.
11/ The NFT will launch on the brand new
@kadena_io
Marmalade V2.
Marmalade V2 NFTs allow royalty fees to be paid to the original creator with every transaction (built directly into the contract).
The first NFT of this collection is scheduled to launch on 11/14/23.
NFT HOLDERS🚨
🗓️ We want to provide you with the most exciting AMA, so we have moved our AMA to January 16, 2024.
⏲️ It will take place from 1:30pm EST to 2:30pm EST.
🤝 The AMA is for NFT holders only! We CANNOT wait to hang out with you.
5/ PHYSICAL COMPONENT
There is also a physical component tied to each NFT.
The printed articles from the original New York Times, framed and signed, by the founders of the world’s first blockchain, and our founders,
@StuartHaber
and
@ScottStornetta
.
2/ NFT DETAILS
The NFT collection features 12 hash roots from the New York Times. The hash roots are from consecutive weeks from our founder’s proto-blockchain.
There is also a physical component for each NFT (more on that later).
Thirty-two years ago, we launched a service…
3/ WHAT?
Starting on 10/13/1991, our team built a blockchain that proved the integrity of the world’s records (events).
Once a week, this coalesced into a classified ad in the New York Times.
We took the block hash, built a Merkle tree, & put that Merkle tree’s root in the ad.

10/ Additionally, there will be a 10% royalty on all subsequent NFT sales, built directly into the NFT's smart contract.
Imagine a scenario where you buy one of the NFTs, then decide to sell it.
That second sale would include a 10% royalty fee auto-deducted from the sale.
3/ WHAT YOU GET pt. 1
The digital NFT
That week, some of the biggest news was President George H.W. Bush fainting at a State Dinner.
The first NFT (depicted in the NFT by
@straatemans
) illustrates the event.
It includes a hash root from the block it was published on.
7/ DUTCH AUCTIONS EXPLAINED
Dutch auction pricing begins at double the end price of the previous conventional auction.
For example, if the end price for auction
#1
ends at $100, the Dutch auction price will begin at $200 for NFT
#2
.
4/ THE COLLECTION
To commemorate our work, we are beginning with a collection of 12 consecutive weeks of those hash roots being published.
The NFTs will include illustrated art depicting an event from each week.
The events are sometimes serious and sometimes whimsical.
8/ THE ORDER
Each auction switches back and forth between auction styles, from conventional to Dutch.
Stay tuned for a graphic coming out later this week with the dates of all the auctions!
