前言：写在前面的一些话

通过一些社群和周边好友了解到，大家对于「Bitcoin Puppets（后续简称 PUP）」存在很多信息差，对项目生态，项目背景，社区文化等均不了解特别详细。历时一个多月的准备，在海外社区的小伙伴帮助下，四处整理信息和资料，准备了本篇内容。

内容脱胎于我个人在 PUP 担任 MOD 至今的经历，本文会从客观角度出发，尽可能的还原社区历史和项目历程，以此规避借助 PUP 的热度来兜售除 PUP 生态之外的割韭菜项目行为。让大家更全面的了解所有信息，从而能更好的对自己的钱包负责。

本文目的有二：

     一，是为了能让更多的人全面的了解到 PUP 的过去历史和社区文化以及相关信息，做出更好的投资策略。

     二，是为了帮助一些 NFT 项目方能够借鉴学习，打造出来更多优质的 NFT 项目在比特币生态。

选择此时发布，主要是想避开高峰时的价格，避免高位接盘的惨状出现。本篇内容不会出现过多的营销内容来博眼球，如：「多早的发现了此项目 / 通过此项目赚了多少钱 / 当时卖飞，少赚了多少钱…」等，更多的是从项目背景，流量数据等视角来分享。如若感觉枯燥，可以根据下方的内容大纲来选择自己感兴趣的部分来阅读。

内容大纲

本文主要以 Ordinals NFT 项目 「Bitcoin Puppets」为主，

第一部分内容包含了其项目背景，项目社区「THE SHED」以及社区内的一些衍生 NFT 和不同艺术家，社区成员，社区文化的介绍。

第二部分内容主要是本人在项目初期时的一些投资判断逻辑，个人投资者视角为主，用作分享参考。

第三部分内容是从项目方视角来看 PUP 有哪些可以借鉴和学习的地方，同样用作分享参考。

本文所提及的社区以及推特等相关信息的链接，会统一放在文末汇总。

感谢

首先感谢艺术家 @lepuppeteerfou 创造了一个优秀的 NFT 艺术和一个有趣的社区。🌹

PUP 的社区起源最早可以追溯到 2021 年，通过长达几周的信息搜集和走访才逐渐拼凑出了大概的全貌。感谢期间耐心提供解答并给予帮助的伙伴们 @lukaskalm @MrEdogtagnft @W4nkpire @Decentralizd @FarmerJoe0x 以及@所有 PUP 社区的 mod 成员。

最后感谢每个喜欢 PUP 生态的伙伴们，是大家的喜欢热爱和支持，促成了这篇文章的诞生。

本文的一切错漏之处均归我自己（shaqima 推特：@daji_357），希望大家批评指正，我会尽快及时调整

第一部分：1.1 - PUP 生态的艺术品项目介绍 （根据时间顺序排列）

NFT ：Lasogette - PUP 的前生 - 艺术家：@lepuppeteerfou

2022 年的时候艺术家 @lepuppeteerfou 在以太坊上创造了一个名为“Lasogette”的 NFT 项目，也被大家经常调侃为“袜子木偶”或者“袜子”，PUP 的早期核心玩家，基本都是来自 Lasogette 的社区，这个社区在 Ordinals 出现之前就已经很壮大了。

一些有影响力的博主因为本身就是 Lasogette 的持有者，也慢慢的开始关注起了 PUP。

随着 Ordinals 的出现，大家开始关注起了比特币 NFT 的机会。在 nodemonks 出现的两周后，opium 项目诞生了。@lepuppeteerfou 花了 6 个星期才完全搞定了 Ordinals 上的铭刻。

此时「THE SHED」社区就已经存在在 Discord 上了，这个社区创建的初衷是为了方便艺术家们进行交流。

NFT：o.p.i.u.m - 比特币上的一小步 - 艺术家：@lepuppeteerfou

这个中文直译是”鸦片”的项目，在中国经常被玩家用“木偶一代”来进行称呼。

对于这个名字，我刚开始差点真的以为这群持有者全是货真价实的瘾君子，直到有一天 MrE （@MrEdogtagnft）告诉我了关于这个名字的寓意：“OPIUM 代表“ORDINAL PUPPET INU UNDOXXED MILLIONAIRE”，我认为它被称为 O.P.I.U.M 是因为这是最后一个将被开采的比特币 sat 的名称（对于序数，每个 sat 都有一个名字）。”

O.p.i.u.m 是 free mint，@lepuppeteerfou 花了很久的时间才搞定了这个项目的部署，最终成功的在 Ordinals 上呈现出了它们，数量 777 个。刚开始的时候，这些项目的参与者与持有者大部分都来自 Lasogette 社区。@lepuppeteerfou 的儿子在 NFT 的设计和创造上给予了非常大的帮助。

@lepuppeteerfou 在 O.p.i.u.m 的白皮书中曾经提到：

“此外，这些木偶超越了实用性的界限，是纯粹的艺术作品。它们没有被设想为具有任何实际目的或高尚的承诺，并且肯定不符合企业实体的严格期望。相反，它们是艺术家原始创意的体现；

这些木偶不是用来交易或拥有的商品。应当以崇敬之心对待它们，因为它们是通向无限创造力世界的大门。拥抱 Ord Puppet Inu Undoxxed Millionaires 的精神，让你的想象力飞向前所未有的新高度。”

这是我很喜欢的两句话。白皮书中还有一些其他的内容，这种文化信仰，是非常具备精神力量的。

那时，正是 2023 年的中旬。

随着 Ordinals 的发展，艺术家 @lepuppeteerfou 把 o.p.i.u.m 作为基础，在数量和形象上开始进行升级，开始着手设计被大家称为“木偶二代”的 PUP，THE SHED 社区也从此刻成为了 Ordinals 艺术家和 o.p.i.u.m 持有者的根据地。

图片截图于 2023 年 11 月，从上段文字中可以看出，艺术家@lepuppeteerfou 将 ord puppet inu undoxxed millionaires 缩写为了 o.p.i.u.m ，这也是木偶一代名字的由来。并且他也很喜欢比特币上这种艺术品的创作形式。开始着手于更大规模的艺术品创作工作。

这里做个补充：THE SHED 的艺术家们，对比比特币上这种真正意义上的 NFT 创作是非常喜欢的，并且对于 ETH 上那种商业化严重的 NFT 运营是非常讨厌。因此 PUP 自始至终都是一些喜欢艺术创作的朋友们在推动，而并没有所谓的团队来去用以太坊 NFT 那种商业运营团队的形式来运营。大家对于商业运营，营销推广是非常讨厌的。也因此诞生出了社区里一个有意思的文化：going to zero 。这个在介绍完项目的内容后，在文化部分会详细地提到。

TOKEN：$PUPS - 比特币上的 MEME 代币 - 部署者：@FarmerJoe0x

PUPS 代币也是遵循了 BRC20 公开公平公正的原则，最开始时（2023 年 4 月），每个人都可以自行的进行 mint。

在 FarmerJoe （@FarmerJoe0x）的推动之下，THE SHED 社区更多的人开始关注起这个代币。23 年的第四季度 SHID 发售前夕，FarmerJoe 组织了一场大型空投，为 o.p.i.u.m 的持有者以及 Ordinals 上一些知名 OG NFT 社区的持有者们空投了此代币。

（可以去翻一下自己的古老钱包，没准也会有收获。如当时火热的 NFT 项目：Pixel Pepes 每个就收到了 1500 个的空投。）

时隔一年，在 2024 年的 4 月，Ansem 在 SOL 上发现了这个 BRC20 的代币的交易对，并且在直播时购买了它。自此，\(PUPS 迎来了第一波高潮，大量的流量涌入\)PUPS/SOL 的交易中，价格一度飙升至 100 美金出头，那晚，BRC20 与 SOL 之间的差价高达数倍。不少人通过在 BRC20 购买低价资产，转移至 SOL 高价售卖赚取差价，大赚一笔。

这里做个补充，以防很多人总是容易搞错：

BRC20 上的 \(PUPS 可以通过跨链桥 multibit 与 SOL 上的 \)PUPS 进行 1:1 双向兑换。

$PUPS 最开始的状态是 BRC20 代币，只是现在随着 BRC20 的发展，已经有技术可以实现，将 BRC20 代币转移到 SOL 上并创建流动性交易池了。就像是普通的 ERC20 代币一样，可以看 K 线图，可以随买随卖。

所以说本质上来讲，SOL 上的 \(PUPS 和 BRC20 的 \)PUPS 是一个东西，数量一致，市值一致，唯独不一样的就是交易方法不一样。因此，两者之间经常会出现差价。

后续 $PUPS 还有 NFT 和符文等新玩法，按照时间顺序排列在后面会介绍。

NFT：SHIDS - 互联网 OG 玩家的怀旧服 MEME - 艺术家：@lukaskalm

2023 年 11 月，Ordinals 生态再次迎来了第二次爆发。NFT 板块人声鼎沸时，SHIDS 开始了它的发售，当时的 mint 方式还是需要自行到网站上下载图片，然后自行铸造的。

总发行量是 7777 个，在铸造过程中，因为某些收录问题，有 189 个 NFT 被错误的收录到了合集中。艺术家 luki（@lukaskalm）和 来自 Ordinal Genesis 的 Hedrin 发现这个问题，于是他们选择尊重这些被因为标签错误而被交易的 NFT，而不是无情的抛弃他们，并单独的为它们创建了一个新的合集《Propper indexxded shids》。

Shids 的形象虽然并没有华丽的外表，但是其背后的 meme 文化可以追溯到 2014 年，此形象的另一个名称叫“Wassies”，在 2017 年是推特上非常火热的加密 meme。

同时 Shids 的 NFT 也是为了致敬以太坊上的 @bywassies 项目，luki 和 lepuppeteerfou 以及一些 PUP 的核心成员也有一部是在这里相识，大家都很喜欢 @bywassies 的文化，也正因如此，在 luki 和 lepuppeteerfou 的商讨下，最终将 THE SHED 社区作为 Shids 和 PUP 共同的社区来运营。

Shids 采用的是「smol」语言风格，可以理解为中国的火星文。是在互联网上最早时期的一个 meme 语言。关于这类内容可以参考推特：https://x.com/Daji_357/status/1727195116757037542

这里补充一些，luki 和 lepuppeteerfou 在 NFT 的创作观念上非常相似，他们都不喜欢以盈利为目的的 NFT 创造，一个好的艺术品应该是有文化有底蕴的，注重的是其艺术品本身的价值，而并非是通过商业运营手段去牟利 / 博眼球。所以他们创造的 NFT 项目并不是为了谋取多么大的利益而作为出发点的。更多的是希望能有人喜欢他们的作品和其背后的文化。也正因如此奠定了 THE SHED 社区的文化基础。

NFT：Bitcoin Puppets - 世界和平 - 艺术家：@lepuppeteerfou

在中国经常被大家称为比特币木偶 / 木偶二代，在一代木偶的基础上进行了升级和调整，给每个 Puppet 增加了不同的装饰物。

NFT 的发行是通过第三方平台进行的购买性发售，o.p.i.u.m 的持有者拥有 5 个 WL 名额，Shids 则是 1 个 WL 名额，其次是公开售。

总量 10001 份的 NFT 合集发售一空后，@W4nkpire 和 @Decentralizd @MrEdogtagnft @itsmadeofcheese 经常会在推特上发起一些 space 用来聊天。那个时候的 space 人数并不是很多。

（@itsmadeofcheese 是第一个铸造 o.p.i.u.m 的人。他也是 Wossums sub 100k ordinals 系列的创作者，而 Wossums 实际上是木偶中的一个特征。）

随之而来的就是 Ordinals NFT 生态大爆发，木偶系列也是在今年年初开始迎来了大量的流量加入。从而 PUP 生态开始走向更多人的视野中。木偶二代也是作为主要的代表被大家广而流传。

关于稀有度的问题，仁者见仁智者见智吧，比特币元素相关的受宠程度会更高一些。这里就不过多的讨论了。我觉得每个 puppet 都是非常可爱的。

Puppets 就不大篇幅的讲解了，自从 NFT 板块大爆发以后呢，Puppets 也成为了众多项目的空投对象，之后大家的关注度一直都在，信息基本都是同步的。后面会主要的分享一下个人的思考。

再次特别感谢 Mod 组的另一位中国兄弟 @klouds_eth ，主导并推动了 Puppets 上架 OKX 的进程。让更多的中国玩家更早的了解到了这场文化艺术狂欢。

THE SHED 社区持有木偶一代，二代以及 SHIDS NFT 任何一个，都可以解锁 Discord 的身份组。同时可以解锁很多 Puppets 的频道。其中有一个 Alpha 的频道中价值信息是比较丰富的。很多海外的优质项目，都能在这里找到踪迹。

这里做个补充：

@lepuppeteerfou 给所有的木偶系列艺术作品都设置了一个非常牛逼的版权协议，下面是对版权协议的中文翻译：

《病毒公共许可证》

Copyleft (ɔ) 所有权利反向保留

本作品特此放弃所有相关的所有权、归属权和版权，允许在有或无修改的情况下进行任何形式的再分发或使用，不受限制，但须遵守以下条件：对本作品或任何利用本作品的任何内容进行任何形式的复制、依赖、链接或任何其他可能形式的衍生或组合的再分发，必须保留本许可证的全部内容。不得施加任何形式的进一步限制。

说实在的第一眼看到的时候我是震惊的，这个脑回路是非常的惊世骇俗的。这个规章的出现把艺术创作的境界推向了一个新的高度。从上而下的蔑视着过往一切的艺术品创作。不光是在艺术品版权上开源，还在精神世界上开源了。像极了一种精神火种的传承。

试着想一下，在一个反对世俗金融体系的比特币世界上，第一次诞生出了一个反虚伪，反世俗，反常规版权逻辑的艺术品创作。

哪怕抛开艺术品的市场价值，仅仅看精神世界就已经能秒杀众多的艺术品创作了。欧洲的文艺复兴，其背后最核心的价值推动不就是那些画作里蕴含的文化精神么。这是一个具备文化内核的艺术创作。

设想一下：

在一个大众都在追逐名利的时代里，你悠哉悠哉的观察着这世间的一切发展，然后与志同道合的人一起把酒言欢，看着那些被世俗束缚的人们，看着那些被虚伪拿捏的人们，看透了那些卑劣的欺诈手段，然后悠悠的说上一句“去他妈的”一种世人皆醉我独醒的爽感。像极了那句“问君何能尔，心远地自偏。”所形容的意境。

NFT：Bitcoin Puppets Honoraries - 大家庭 - 艺术家：@lepuppeteerfou

PUP 的发售后，艺术家@lepuppeteerfou 又给一些为社区做出巨大贡献的人员赠送了一个新的礼物，就是比特币荣誉木偶，每一个都是单独定制的。

获得 honorary 身份后，可以提出你想设计的款式。不过制作过程需要耐心等待，（在提设计想法的时候，我发了一张龙袍的照片作为参考图🤣，很期待最后的作品。）。

除此之外，@lepuppeteerfou 的推特也会有不定期的活动，赠送一些独特设计的 honorary 作品，但需要通过参加挑战来获得。（有时候挑战可能会涉及到裸体，请做好心理准备。另外我想如果你能坚持每天都给他私信你屁股的照片，持续一段时间，也有机会可以获得。🤣）

这是一个木偶家庭的合集。

NFT：CC0 - 这是一只猫 - 艺术家：@lukaskalm

luki 的 shids 之后的第二个作品，借鉴了木偶二代的风格，在形象和元素上做了一些新尝试。

因为 Shids 的爆火，CC0 在中国玩家的社区也很受喜爱，CC0 有一个自己的 discord 社区。除此之外后来的很多社区创新 NFT 也都会把 CC0 作为 WL 的一部分。

NFT：一些社区成员自创资产 （按照时间线排序，他们在此时出现）

随着 Puppet 的爆火，社区的一些成员自行发行了一些衍生资产，有的是免费空投，有的是需要付费 mint。这里提及一下。（但由于数量过多，可能无法全部都一一举例。）

Puppet Maxi Biz (PMB) 创作者：@MKUltraBTC （免费空投）

Titanium Cheeto （BRC420）创作者：未知 （付费 mint）

….

NFT：RUNE PUPS - 比特币符文的第一步 - 部署者：@FarmerJoe0x

随着符文的火爆，\(PUPS 团队也率先做出了新的尝试，由于第一次的 \)PUPS 代币空投只给到了 o.p.i.u.m （木偶一代）的持有者们。Puppets（木偶二代）创作出来的时间则是在空投之后。

因此 $PUPS 团队再次给 PUP NFT 的所有持有者们空投了一个新的 NFT 合集。并告知，这个 NFT 在未来可以通过燃烧来换取一定数量的符文代币。

o.p.i.u.m 被空投的是金色的 Rune Pups NFT 总量 777 个

Bitcoin Puppets 被空投的是银色的 Rune Pups NFT 总量 10001 个

而如今，燃烧通道已经打开了：

燃烧通道链接 - https://pups.ordkit.xyz

登录密码 - PEACETALKSCONTINUE

Rune Pups NFT 的空投，再次让 \(PUPS 的参与者扩大到了一个更高的高度。\)PUPS 通过这种方式再次巩固了自己作为社区象征代币的地位。

NFT：Little Pups - 一个画风非常可爱的头像作品 - 艺术家：@cakedworld

被中国玩家称为“小木偶”的可爱风头像系列合集，画风很可爱，借鉴了 Puppets 的元素，然后进行了二次创作。

这款社区二创的作品在 Discord 中也很受大家喜欢。

在此之后还有一些其他的社区成员作品如：

le puppettes；

Chubby Puppets；

….

时间问题就不一一详说了，社区二创作品种类繁多，都是在木偶的基础上进行创新的。

目前 Discord 有身份组认证的 NFT 系列分别是：

o.p.i.u.m；Bitcoin Puppets；Shids；Propper indexxded shids.这四个。

RUNE：PUPS•WORLD•PEACE - 这是一个象征着世界和平的图腾 - 部署者：@FarmerJoe0x

前面提到过，Rune PUPS NFT 是 \(PUPS 团队对符文市场的第一步，随着符文的全面开放，\)PUPS 团队也部署了名为 PUPS•WORLD•PEACE 的符文项目。

名字的寓意和木偶社区的文化一样，坚持着世界和平的理念。

PUPS•WORLD•PEACE 的所有符文全部在 $PUPS 团队手中，玩家并不能自己去蚀刻符文。因此获得符文的方式有两种：

1. 通过上面提到的官方燃烧通道，把 $PUPS 代币燃烧，按照 1:100 的比例换成符文。

2. 把 Rune PUPS NFT 通过燃烧通道，置换成符文代币。

根据目前的信息，Rune Pups NFT 的燃烧时间是有限制的，如果到了截止日期并没有燃烧的话，NFT 大概率就会失效。

对于 SOL 的 \(PUPS 还没有技术可以实现直接将他们置换成符文。因此 SOL 上的\)PUPS 需要通过跨链到 BRC20 后，铭刻打包完成，才可以再进行燃烧。

针对 $PUPS 代币的燃烧计划，目前并没有说存在截止日期的说法。但团队也是希望能通过这种方式来清除掉那些“沉睡太久的不活跃地址”。

至此，PUP 生态的项目介绍完毕。

总结：整体的 PUP 生态核心资产可以分为两个大类；

O.p.i.u.m；Bitcoin Puppets 为主的 NFT 体系，以及 $PUPS；PUPS•WORLD•PEACE 为主的符文代币体系。

而 $PUPS；PUPS•WORLD•PEACE 本质上是同一个东西，毕竟符文是代币体系中的最终状态。

第一部分：1.2 - THE SHED 社区及社区文化

THE SHED 社区

最开始时这里是 Ordinals 艺术家用来交流的地方。艺术家们在这里创造有意义的艺术品，铭刻在比特币上，通过艺术品的文化和精神影响着加密行业的每一个人，最后大家因为爱汇聚在这里。这里更像一个家，每一个人都很有趣，大家为推广世界和平和共同努力。

持有 O.P.I.U.M；Bitcoin Puppets；Shids；Propper indexxded shids 任意一个 NFT 资产，在 discord 验证钱包后，就可以解锁对应的身份组认证和频道。但无论你持有哪一类资产，都不妨碍你来 THE SHED 社区里感受爱和参与推动世界和平。

社区文化：世界和平

在 Puppets 的官网，有一个世界和平宣言，我对这份宣言进行了中文版本的翻译，大家可以看一下：

《世界和平》

为什么说比特币木偶是有史以来最伟大资产类别的决定性文化象征。

我们都知道关注度能带动流动性，但我们也必须记住，文化驱动关注度。真实的、有机的文化是通过个体的凝聚而浮现，而不是通过公司或影响者。无论你是否喜欢，木偶现在已经成为比特币上的决定性文化象征，主要是因为我们都能感受到其中的简单荒谬性。它们是由一个 12 岁的孩子创造的 MS Paint 猴子，这是荒谬的。它反映了我们都身处其中的这个空间的荒谬性。我们一夜之间在狗狗币上赌博赢得或失去数百万，我们向公然的骗子发送数百万美元。我们经常被世界各国政府坑害。这是从永远在线的数字社会中新兴的现实，我们在过去十年找到了一种货币化的方式。

左派喜欢木偶，因为它代表了他们在这里的一切原因：在愚蠢的事情上赚钱。右派也喜欢木偶，因为它代表了他们在这里的原因：在愚蠢的事情上赚钱。中间派讨厌它，因为“嗯，艺术看起来很糟糕，没有路线图，没有实用性”，但我们都知道那是胡说。如果你在这里，而且是中庸之道，你永远不会成功。

木偶是加密文化的顶峰，因为它们生活在边缘，隐藏在金融和自我组织经济社区的暗影边缘，不受任何权威的限制。我们在一阵狂笑中旋转，尖叫着木偶的价值将归零，因为我们知道，只要时间足够长，一切都将归零，即使是你珍贵的法定货币也不例外。无论你是赢得一切还是失去一切，你真正能做的只有笑。我们不是疯了，我们只是走在前面。

我们知道，这是我们这一代人最后的机会，通过骑上我们所见过的最大的金融动荡浪潮来逃离 NPC 工资奴役的单调乏味，我们出售时间换取金钱，唯一真正希望购买的只是更多时间。没有人会理解你，当你赢了，他们会说你运气好，但木偶们懂。我们是无家可归者的家，是你在重回波动风暴的日常生活之前，可以取暖的小屋。

如果你不相信我，或者不明白，我没有时间试图说服你，对不起。我们只会看着你应对和愤怒，当我们乘着这波浪一直冲到顶端。

继续享受，继续成功，继续努力，为了世界和平。

在这份宣言的影响下，每一个 THE SHED 成员都致力于为推动世界和平而努力。Puppets 某种意义上来说，就是世界和平的一个美好象征。一个承载着美好理想和远景的艺术品。

另外社区的成员是相信因果报应的，大家相信做善事会的善果。所以大家也是希望能通过木偶来改变 NFT 生态，让每个人从捞钱的心态变成充满爱的心态。 （@W4nkpire）

补充：

在 2024 年 4 月西方国家的 BRC20 热潮中，@Decentralizd 推动了名为“W☮️”代币的发展，这个代币的寓意也是秉承了社区世界和平的精神。并创建了一个新的推特账号来运营此项目。并且也策划了 NFT 和符文的相关玩法。

补充 2:

THE SHED 社区是拥抱和平的，是不会恶意的诋毁并且和其他的项目发生冲突的。对于 Nodemonkey 的一些幽默调侃，是因为有些博主之间本身就是好友，只是朋友之间开一开玩笑。后来被某些国人曲解带入到了一些微信社区后又添加了自己的主观臆断，引发了一些不开心，但这并不是 THE SHED 社区想表达的意思。世界和平才是大家共同追求的。

社区文化：BJBJ

emm，这是一个问候语，准确的来说，BJBJ 是有问候语的意思的，代表早上好的意思。和 GM，Hello 差不多。

这个单词的缩写来自于法语“bonjour” 。（早上好的意思）

这个梗源自于最早的 lasogette 社区，也就是 puppets 的前身 NFT 社区，当 lasogette 首次在以太坊上发布时，木偶大师装扮成一个法国袜子木偶。因此，这个词在木偶界流传下来。

因为它很容易被误认为是“blow job”（口交）的俚语版本。（有些时候确实很难分辨大家到底是在早上好还是在…）

BJBJ 也是社区里最常见和大家最喜欢的打招呼的方式，你几乎可以在任何木偶出现的地方找到它的身影。它遍布了推特和 Discord。如果你偶遇了木偶，当你说出 BJBJ 的时候，就会得到热情的回应。

补充：

在 PUPS 之后，2023 年 5 月份有人部署了一个 BJBJ 的 BRC20 在 Unisat，至今没有 mint 结束。

历史总是惊人的相似。不知道 NFT 会不会因为 Ordinals 迎来第二春，在木偶的影响下，BJBJ 称为第二个 GM（21 年 NFT 热潮时的社区 meme，也是早上好的意思）

社区文化：GO TO ZERO

最终，终将归零。这也是社区的一个口号。每个人认为 puppets 的价格应该是 0，因为毫无价值所以并不会出售。反而形成了一批坚定的“钻石手”。同时也是提前警告那些短线投机者们，不要来购买，这个 NFT 毫无价值。

有趣的是，正是因为这种情况的存在，NFT 的价格反而更容易高涨。让大家在意外之间获得了财富收益。

这个文化的起源要追溯起@lepuppeteerfou 在创造 puppets 时的艺术演讲了。我进行了一些中文版本的翻译，大家可以参考一下：

关于艺术

需要注意的是，这些木偶不仅仅是玩具。它们超越了实用性的界限，本身就是纯粹的艺术作品。它们没有按照任何路线图或宏伟承诺来设计，当然也不符合任何企业实体的严格期望。相反，这些木偶是艺术家原始创造力的体现，也是庆祝我们所有人内在怪异性的活动。

当你与这些木偶互动时，抛开传统思维的束缚，投入到非传统的魅力中。拥抱这份心血来潮，享受荒诞不经，让你的想象力自由驰骋。在这个手工制作的奇迹领域里，没有保证，没有既定的路径可循。这是一个非主流的庇护所，也是艺术表达无限可能性的见证。

关于艺术家

在我的领域里，艺术没有界限。它不仅局限于画廊或博物馆，而是活在存在的织物之中。我的作品挑战分类，邀请你进入一个美丽与荒诞交织的世界。通过 Ord Puppet Inu Undoxxed Millionaire 的木偶，你将踏上一段想象横飞、可能性无限的旅程。

这些木偶每一个都是因果（善恶终有报）的见证。它们用基本工具制作，体现了我的艺术过程的原始精髓，融入了巨大的努力和无限的热情。但它们不仅仅是木偶；它们是荒诞的体现，仅作为艺术存在。

并且之前的内容也说过，木偶社区对于商业性合作（市场营销）是非常讨厌至极的。艺术家们认为，真正纯粹的艺术是个体性的体现。而并非是通过合作来博眼球。Puppets 的文化和性和其单一的艺术家创作者就是它纯粹的本质。

如果为了追求市场的虚名而扼杀了艺术本身最纯粹的价值的话，那艺术就不再完美了。商业合作确实有很大的诱惑力，但始终脱离不了一个零和博弈的困境，即便它总是被包装成非零和博弈。

艺术家并不想艺术作品 NFT 称为一种手段和工具，因此拒绝一切的商业营销合作就是对艺术品本身最好的保护。艺术作品牢牢将艺术家和收藏者们紧密相连，如果艺术家能够坚持拒绝商业合作，那也是对这神圣的关系最好的负责。

在这个遍地充满了商业性营销的 NFT 生态中，拒绝商业性合作是一种挑战，真正的成功并不是万众瞩目，而是能够坚定不移的坚持底线保护着艺术品的纯粹性，也是对艺术品商品化的一种反抗。

第二部分：Puppets 的投资逻辑和思考历程（shaqima@daji_357）

我个人接触到 Puppets 时，是在 Shids 刚刚出现的时候，对于一级市场笨拙的我，在看到了这个项目的推特后，连夜翻译出了 leet speak 的中文意思。我个人也是一个怀旧主义者，在看到这种充满了文艺复兴气息的艺术品时，更多的是激动。于是果断的在二级市场购买了许多，至今还在我的钱包里一个未动。

也正是这次机遇，我加入到了 THE SHED 社区，随后又有幸的成为了社区的 MOD。

如果是早期关注我的朋友们应该都看过我以前的观点，Ordinals 还是在一个刚开始的阶段，市场非常小，所有人都在跑马圈地。只是大家所用的方式不同，文化内核不同。西方国家喜欢用 NFT 的形式，东方国家喜欢 BRC20 的方式。

在经历了协议造富，BRC20 的造富后，中国的玩家用户基本饱和，在这些项目里，真正西方国家的玩家占比估计连 1% 可能都没有。

在增量市场结束后，面临的就是存量市场的博弈困境。放在大资本面前的选择只有继续寻找增量市场，那么要面临的问题就只有一个：如何要让全球加密爱好者一起参与到这场比特币生态的狂欢里来。

因此，在 23 年 5 月份的一场狂欢之后，我就一直留意和筛选那些真正具备西方逻辑体系内核的项目，而非是中西结合的噱头。

恰巧，此时的 SHEDS 出现了。这种纯正的语言逻辑和其背后的文化 MEME，是西方独有的文化体系，不是换个定位翻译一下语言就可以短时间内完成的。它需要你有很长时间的西方国家的思维方式和生活认知才可以构建。

同样对于此事的交易所而言，要扩大自己的收益要么增加产品线（Token 的数量）要么增加用户群体。上新不难，难的是上新后不留麻烦，所以上新币需要长时间的调研和筛选，来满足安全感的需求。但是增加用户群体就不同了，如今的中国用户几乎饱和，即便有新的增量流量加入，选择也是很少，等于是已经在必经之路占山为王了，因此国内用户并不需要过多的担心。花费大量的人力物力去做国内的增量是得不偿失的。

那么剩下的增量就是海外市场了。而海外的项目如今更多的就是以 MEME 文化为主，它不是一朝一夕可以快速养成的。（比如 PEPE，DOGE，SHIB…）所以，海外 MEME 的新起之秀，都是交易所青睐的对象。

在第一篇文章里我说过，比特币生态的发展是影响全行业的事情，毕竟它挂钩的是比特币本身。因此只要是加密行业的推动者，都会义无反顾的推动其发展。比特币的上涨每个人都是既得利益者。同样，面对此时的 BTC 减产，矿工亦是如此，并且矿工在比特币生态中还扮演了多重受益者。而矿工并不是仅属于某个国家的单一群体。总的来说，比特币生态的全球化狂欢，几乎是任何一方都想看到和努力推动的。

以上就是我在项目筛选时的大的逻辑，在确定了筛选的精确目标后，交易所怎么做调研，我就怎么做调研就可以了。所以在项目投资的进程上，步伐一致。

除此之外就是文化内核的传播，

SHEDS 刚出现的时候，好友林老板我们约在杭州吃饭，他当时给我科普了比特币上的巫师文化。（一场有趣的视频传播案例）从而更加让我意识到，具备文化内核的 MEME 在传播和扩散的时候是具备非常大的优势的。正因如此，在越发的挖掘 THE SHEDS 的文化时，我就越发的喜爱。这里的文化让人欲罢不能。还有什么比这种纯粹的自由思想更魅力的呢。

在某种程度上，这里的文化更有归属感，对于那些低劣的营销手段，为了碎银几两甚至都不去动脑思考升级一下的营销套路，嗤之以鼻。是在这个充满了虚假套路的生态中，纯粹反而成了一方净土。没有什么比为了推动世界和平而反版权，拒绝商业化，保持艺术品的纯粹性更有意义的叙事了。

有时候，其实并不是我们不懂。文化这东西，中国上下历史五千年的传承，这些在我们身边每天耳熟能详的话语，反而如今被我们忽略了。其实只是我们有时候真的太着急了，没时间去看，去思考。华夏五千年，一句炎黄子孙，龙的传人支撑了我们的所有。这不就是当下 MEME 的内核根本吗？我们有的太久了，以至于我们完全习以为常了。

MEME 从来不是一个狂欢，也不是一个无厘头，而是一个文化传承，一个能让人有归属感，有认同感的载体。如果你看到这里还没明白，再去看一下近代史，如今的我们不正是因为那一句“为了中华民族伟大复兴而努力”才有了今天吗？你看，很多东西，历史里前辈们都给我们展示过，只是有些时候，概念换了一下而已。其内核根本是没变的。

补充：

在这几天发布 PUP 相关内容时，私信咨询的问题比较多，为了能够方便更好的让每个喜欢 THE SHED 社区文化的人能够直观的理解到 PUP 相关的信息，考虑到有些人可能并不能及时的查阅推特和随时 Discord 在线，我创建了一个 Puppets 中文的推特（@Puppets_China），并准备组建一个 PUP 相关的微信社群。

PUP 的微信社群保持 THE SHED 的风格，任何喜欢 PUP 文化的人员都可以加入，在这里欢迎大家分享讨论 PUP 相关的内容。同时帮助更多没有推特的人，通过微信群能够加入到 THE SHED 的 Discord 中。

加入社群的方式可以关注 Puppets 中文的推特（@Puppets_China），届时会公布。

第三部分：学以致用，Puppets 那些值得学习的地方

看到有些调整搬运的项目通过低劣的三人成虎营销手段还能割的众多人体无完肤，多少是有一些心痛的。本篇文章的最后一个目的也是希望能够帮助一些有理想有抱负的项目艺术家创造出更多更有意义的优秀项目。如今世界，我相信更多的人并不满足于做一个抄袭搬运者，而在那创作的内心深处，是有一个想做好产品，做一个属于自己的原创作品的激情的。

首先，文化内核部分我们就不再多赘述了，毕竟上面的内容已经基本分享的差不多了。

社区精神

Puppets 最值得学习的地方之一，就是它社区的拥抱精神，这种拥抱精神是一种无私的包容，一种完全的接纳。社区的每个成员都可以接受新衍生资产的发生。艺术作品在宏观的社区文化之下，价格并不是大家主要追求的。

即便不去购买，对于社区的新增衍生资产来说，只要不是以过分的谋利作为前提，其本质也是一种宣传。毕竟随着核心资产的不断走高，一些资金并不宽裕的用户并不能很好的加入到这场狂欢里，反而这些新生资产在发时候，以低廉的价格让大家用比较可以接受的筹码参与到了这场文化狂欢里来。即便最后变成了一地鸡毛，最后那些收益颇丰的资金人群仍旧还是会选择购买核心资产。所以说，其本质不光在影响力和人群上做了增量，对于核心资产来说也是一种周期较长的增量。

因此对于一些创作目的纯粹，具备艺术精神和社区精神的作品，社区的每个人也都会乐意为他推动。

反而内部斗争其实对社区来说是伤害巨大的。（之前也出现过一次作秀，某国人因持有木偶，便在公开场合大肆发表了对 SHIDS 等一些其他社区资产的 diss，其实本身就是哗众取宠，THE SHED 的社区的根都被自己亲手刨了，还谈什么 hold。THE SHED 社区的内核之一就是包容社区的艺术作品，不以价格作为衡量艺术品的主要标的。）

所以说社区的核心文化决定了社区的凝聚力，对于一些妄想哗众取宠，吃完饭就想掀桌子的小丑，在绝对的社区凝聚力面前，他们并不能如愿以偿的兴风作浪。

流量的扩充

中国有句古话叫做心急吃不了热豆腐，Puppets 的今天也是历时多年的文化沉淀而成就的。因此对于如今的互联网快节奏的环境，个人从营销角度上来讲，类金融产品并不推荐高调起场。

如今的加密市场并非是无限大的蛋糕，特别是在整体市场正在缓慢恢复的阶段中，用户群体是有限的，如果声量在刚开始就扩散到集体，反而无法带来长久的驱动性，其整体所呈现的数据也是峰值巨大跌宕起伏的，毕竟人多了想法就多了，一个脑袋八个身子就不要想什么规划落地了。（如果你真的有很好的愿景的前提下）

所以说，允许市场增量的缓慢进行，打造艺术品并不是做交易所，无时无刻人越多越好。一个好的产品，可以保持与整体市场增量的速度，同步进行。

举个最简单的🌰，整个市场一共 1 万人，你的出场就让一万人万众瞩目了，那你想再做增量的时候，只能考虑复购或者这一万人以外的了。可如果每天广场新增 1000 人，但 1000 人又不能保证你的数据平稳，巨大的波动就会导致你的口碑下滑，因此牵一发而动全身，形成了蝴蝶效应。

如果你在同样的情况下，选择先让几千人了解，然后每天保持 500 人的增速，那么只要市场是在增量的阶段中，你的市场规模就是无限大。

希望有更多优秀的艺术品发生在中国，发生在全世界。世界和平。

本文内容分享到此为止，整体文章偏长，总计一万多字，希望能够通过这篇文章给每个人都能带来需要的价值。

希望 THE SHED 社区的文化能够永远的传承下去。为了世界和平。

Foreword

Recently, many people have reached out to me through various communities, seeking information about Puppets. In China, there’s a significant information gap regarding “Bitcoin Puppets” (hereafter referred to as PUP), especially concerning the project’s ecosystem, background, and community culture. After more than a month of preparation and with the help of friends in overseas communities, I’ve compiled this content.

The content is based on my experience as a MOD at PUP. I disapprove of those who exploit PUP’s popularity to promote their projects and scam others. Therefore, this article will adhere to objective facts and aim to restore the community’s history and the project’s progression as accurately as possible. The goal is to give everyone a comprehensive understanding of PUP.

The objectives of this article are twofold:

1. To provide a comprehensive understanding of PUP’s history, community culture, and related information, helping people make better investment strategies.

2. To assist NFT project creators in learning from PUP and creating more high-quality NFT projects within the Bitcoin ecosystem.

This piece is published at this time to avoid peak pricing and prevent high-cost entry scenarios. It avoids excessive marketing content and focuses more on the project’s background and traffic data for sharing. If you find it dry, feel free to skip to sections of interest as outlined below.

Article Outline

This article primarily focuses on the Ordinals NFT project “Bitcoin Puppets.”

Part One includes the project background, community description of “THE SHED,” and introduces various derivative NFTs, different artists, community members, and the community culture.

Part Two covers my personal investment logic during the early stages of the project, mainly from an individual investor’s perspective, intended for sharing and reference.

Part Three views PUP from the project perspective, highlighting aspects that could be instructive and used as a reference.

Links to the community and related Twitter information mentioned in this article will be consolidated at the end.

Acknowledgments

First, a huge thanks to the artist @lepuppeteerfou for creating an outstanding NFT art and an engaging community. 🌹

The PUP community dates back to 2021, pieced together over weeks of gathering information and making visits. Thanks to those who patiently provided answers and assistance during this time: @lukaskalm, @MrEdogtagnft, @W4nkpire, @Decentralizd, @FarmerJoe0x, and all the MOD members of the PUP community.

Lastly, thank you to everyone who loves the PUP ecosystem. Your affection and support have made this article possible. Any errors in the text are solely my responsibility (shaqima, Twitter: @daji_357), and I welcome your corrections and will adjust promptly.

Part One: 1.1 - Introduction to PUP Ecosystem’s Art Projects (Arranged Chronologically)

NFT: Lasogette - The Precursor to PUP - Artist: @lepuppeteerfou

In 2022, @lepuppeteerfou launched an NFT project named “Lasogette” on Ethereum, humorously referred to as “Sock Puppet” or “Sogs”by the community. Early core players of PUP primarily came from the Lasogette community, which had already grown significantly before the emergence of Ordinals. Influential bloggers, being holders of Lasogette, gradually started paying attention to PUP.

With the arrival of Ordinals, interest in Bitcoin NFTs began to surge. Two weeks after nodemonks appeared, the opium project was born. @lepuppeteerfou spent six weeks perfecting the engravings on Ordinals.

By then, “THE SHED” community was already established on Discord, initially formed to facilitate communication among artists.

NFT: o.p.i.u.m - A Small Step on Bitcoin - Artist: @lepuppeteerfou

This project, directly translated as “opium” in Chinese, is often referred to as “Puppet Generation One” by players.

Initially, I almost believed that all holders were genuine addicts until MrE (@MrEdogtagnft) explained the meaning behind the name: “OPIUM stands for ‘ORDINAL PUPPET INU UNDOXXED MILLIONAIRE,’” suggesting it’s the last Bitcoin sat to be mined (each sat has a name in Ordinals).

O.p.i.u.m was a free mint. @lepuppeteerfou took a long time to deploy the project successfully on Ordinals, with a total of 777 pieces. Initially, participants and holders mostly came from the Lasogette community. @lepuppeteerfou’s son played a significant role in the design and creation of the NFTs.

In the o.p.i.u.m whitepaper, @lepuppeteerfou mentioned:

“Moreover, these puppets transcend the boundaries of utility; they are pure art. They are not designed with any practical purpose or grand promises in mind, and they certainly do not meet the strict expectations of corporate entities. Instead, they represent the artist’s original creativity;

These puppets are not commodities to be traded or owned. They should be treated with reverence, as they are gateways to a world of unlimited creativity. Embrace the spirit of Ord Puppet Inu Undoxxed Millionaires, and let your imagination soar to unprecedented heights.”

These are words I hold dear. The whitepaper contains other content, imbued with a powerful cultural belief.

By mid-2023, as Ordinals evolved, @lepuppeteerfou used o.p.i.u.m as a foundation to upgrade in quantity and image, beginning to design what many call “Puppet Generation Two.” From that moment, THE SHED community became the base for Ordinals artists and o.p.i.u.m holders.

A screenshot from November 2023 shows that @lepuppeteerfou abbreviated ord puppet inu undoxxed millionaires to o.p.i.u.m, which is the origin of the name for Puppet Generation One. He also expressed a fondness for this form of art creation on Bitcoin, embarking on creating more extensive art projects.

Here’s an addition: THE SHED artists, who appreciate the true essence of NFT creation on Bitcoin, despise the commercialized NFT operations seen on Ethereum. Thus, from the beginning, PUP has been driven by friends who love art creation without a so-called team employing commercial operations like those seen with Ethereum NFTs. Everyone detests commercial operations and marketing promotions. This also led to the creation of a unique community culture: going to zero. More about this will be discussed in the culture section after the project introduction.

TOKEN: $PUPS - A MEME Token on Bitcoin - Deployer: @FarmerJoe0x

$PUPS token follows the principles of openness, fairness, and justice of BRC20. From its inception in April 2023, anyone could mint on their own.

Under the promotion of FarmerJoe (@FarmerJoe0x), more people in THE SHED community began to take notice of this token. Just before the SHID sale in Q4 2023, FarmerJoe organized a large airdrop for o.p.i.u.m holders and other well-known OG NFT community holders on Ordinals.

(You might want to check your old wallets; you might find something. For example, the hot NFT project at that time, Pixel Pepes, each received an airdrop of 1500 tokens.)

A year later, in April 2024, Ansem found this BRC20 token’s trading pair on SOL and bought it during a livestream. From that point, \(PUPS experienced its first surge, attracting a massive influx of traffic into the \)PUPS/SOL trade, with prices briefly soaring over $100. That night, the price difference between BRC20 and SOL was several times higher. Many people made a fortune by buying low on BRC20 and selling high on SOL.

Here’s a clarification to prevent common misunderstandings:

\(PUPS on BRC20 can be exchanged 1:1 with \)PUPS on SOL via the multibit cross-chain bridge.

Initially, $PUPS was a BRC20 token, but with the development of BRC20, there is now technology to transfer BRC20 tokens to SOL and create liquidity pools. Just like regular ERC20 tokens, they can be traded on the spot market.

Essentially, SOL’s \(PUPS and BRC20's \)PUPS are the same thing, with identical quantities and market values; the only difference lies in their trading methods. As such, price discrepancies often occur between the two.

Future developments for $PUPS will include NFTs and runes, which will be introduced in chronological order later in the article.

NFT: SHIDS - A Nostalgic MEME for OG Internet Players - Artist: @lukaskalm

In November 2023, the Ordinals ecosystem witnessed its second explosion. When the NFT sector was buzzing, SHIDS launched its mint, which required downloading images from the website and minting them yourself.

With a total issuance of 7777, due to some cataloging issues, 189 NFTs were erroneously included in the collection. Artist Luki (@lukaskalm) & Hedrin (from Ordinal Genesis) discovered this problem but chose not to honor the mislabeled and already traded Shids instead of discarding them. Thus, Instead, he created a new collection called “Propper indexxded shids” was made.”

Despite SHIDS’ unassuming appearance, its meme culture dates back to 2014, with another name for this image being “Wassies,” which was a hot crypto meme on Twitter in 2017.

SHIDS’ NFTs are also a tribute to the @bywassies project on Ethereum. Luki and lepuppeteerfou, along with some core PUP members, met here, all fans of @bywassies’ culture. For this reason, after discussions between Luki and lepuppeteerfou, THE SHED community was ultimately chosen as the shared community for managing both Shids and PUP.

SHIDS uses “smol” a language style that can be likened to Martian language in China, an early internet meme language. For more on this topic, you can refer to Twitter: https://x.com/Daji_357/status/1727195116757037542

An additional note: Luki and lepuppeteerfou share very similar concepts in NFT creation. They dislike the notion of creating NFTs purely for profit. A good artwork should have cultural depth and focus on the value of the art itself rather than being used for profit or attracting attention through commercial operations. Hence, their NFT projects are not aimed at garnering significant profits but rather at finding appreciation for their work and its underlying culture. This foundation also established the cultural basis of THE SHED community.

NFT: Bitcoin Puppets - World Peace - Artist: @lepuppeteerfou

In China, these are often referred to as Bitcoin Puppets or Generation Two Puppets, which are an upgrade and modification of the first generation, with each Puppet featuring different decorations.

The release of these NFTs was conducted through a third-party platform for purchase-based sales, with o.p.i.u.m holders receiving five whitelist spots and Shids one. After the complete sell-out of the 10,001-piece NFT collection, @W4nkpire, @Decentralizd, @MrEdogtagnft,and @MrEdogtagnft often initiated Twitter spaces for chats. At that time, these spaces were not heavily attended.

(@itsmadeofcheese was the very first person to mint an o.p.i.u.m. He is also the creator of the Wossums sub 100k ordinals collection, and the Wossums are actually a trait in the puppets.)

Subsequently, the Ordinals NFT ecosystem exploded, and the Puppet series began to attract a significant influx of traffic early this year. As a result, the PUP ecosystem came into the view of a broader audience. Generation Two Puppets became widely known as the main representatives.

As for the rarity, it’s a matter of perspective, with Bitcoin-related elements generally being more favored. We won’t delve too deeply into that here. I find each puppet extremely adorable.

There’s no need to elaborate extensively on Puppets since the explosion of the NFT sector. Puppets have become the target of many projects’ airdrops, maintaining continuous interest with information being synchronized. Further personal reflections will be shared later.

A special thanks again to another Chinese brother in the Mod group, @klouds_eth, who led and propelled the listing of Puppets on OKX. This allowed more Chinese players to become early participants in this cultural and artistic carnival.

Holding any of the NFTs from the first generation, second generation, or SHIDS in THE SHED community grants access to unlock identity groups on Discord. Additionally, many Puppets channels are unlocked, with one Alpha channel containing particularly valuable information. Many high-quality overseas projects can be found here.

An addition:

@lepuppeteerfou has set a groundbreaking copyright agreement for all Puppet series artworks. Here is a translation of that copyright agreement:

“Viral Public License”

Copyleft (ɔ) All rights reversed.

This work hereby relinquishes all related ownership, attribution, and copyrights, allowing any form of redistribution or use, with or without modifications, unrestrictedly, but subject to the following conditions: any form of copying, reliance, linking, or any other possible form of redistribution that derives from or combines with this work must retain the entire content of this license. No further restrictions may be imposed.

Honestly, I was shocked at first glance; the thought process behind this is utterly unconventional. The emergence of this regulation has elevated the realm of artistic creation, looking down upon all past artistic creations from a higher plane. Not only does it open-source the copyright on artworks, but it also opens up the spiritual world. It’s like a passing down of a spiritual torch.

Imagine, in a Bitcoin world that opposes the conventional financial system, for the first time, an artwork has emerged that defies hypocrisy, secular norms, and traditional copyright logic.

Even disregarding the market value of the artwork, the spiritual world alone could overshadow many other artistic creations. The cultural spirit contained in the artworks of the European Renaissance drove the most critical value behind it. This is an artwork with a cultural core.

Imagine:

In an era where the masses chase fame and fortune, you casually observe all that unfolds around you, sharing drinks and laughs with like-minded individuals, observing those bound by secular chains, those manipulated by falsehoods, seeing through the deceitful tactics, and then calmly uttering, “To hell with it,” relishing the feeling of being the sober one amidst a drunken crowd. It’s akin to the sentiment expressed in the phrase, “问君何能尔，心远地自偏。”

NFT: Bitcoin Puppets Honoraries - One Big Family - Artist: @lepuppeteerfou

After the launch of PUP, artist @lepuppeteerfou gifted a new token of appreciation to some community members who made significant contributions: the Bitcoin Honorary Puppets, each custom-designed.

Upon receiving an honorary status, you can propose your design ideas. However, patience is required during the production process (for instance, I sent a photo of a dragon robe as a reference image for my design, eagerly anticipating the final product).🤣

In addition, @lepuppeteerfou’s Twitter occasionally hosts events to distribute these uniquely designed honorary pieces, obtainable through participation in challenges (sometimes, these challenges might involve nudity, so be mentally prepared. Moreover, if you could consistently send him a photo of your buttocks daily, you might also stand a chance to receive one after some time).🤣

This collection represents a Puppet family.

NFT: CC0 - This is a Cat - Artist: @lukaskalm

Following the success of Shids, luki’s second work, CC0, took inspiration from the style of Generation Two Puppets, experimenting with new forms and elements.

Due to the popularity of Shids, CC0 has also become beloved within the Chinese player community, with its own dedicated Discord community. Furthermore, many innovative community NFT projects later included CC0 as part of their whitelist.

NFT: Community-Member-Created Assets (Listed Chronologically as They Appeared)

With the explosive popularity of Puppets, some community members independently issued derivative assets, some through free airdrops and others through paid mints. Here are a few examples (due to the vast number, not all can be listed individually):

Puppet Maxi Biz (PMB) by @MKUltraBTC (free airdrop)

Titanium Cheeto (BRC420) by an unknown creator (paid mint)

…

NFT: RUNE PUPS - The First Step of Bitcoin Runes - Deployer: @FarmerJoe0x

Following the popularity of runes, the \(PUPS team took the initiative to experiment anew. Since the initial \)PUPS token airdrop was only distributed to o.p.i.u.m (Generation One Puppet) holders, Puppets (Generation Two) were created after the airdrop.

Thus, the $PUPS team airdropped a new NFT collection to all PUP NFT holders, informing them that these NFTs could be exchanged for a certain number of rune tokens through burning in the future.

o.p.i.u.m received an airdrop of 777 golden Rune Pups NFTs, （1/1）

while Bitcoin Puppets received 10,001 silver Rune Pups NFTs. （1/1）

The burning channel is now open:

Burning channel link - https://pups.ordkit.xyz

Login password - PEACETALKSCONTINUE

The Rune Pups NFT airdrop has once again expanded the participant base of $PUPS, further solidifying its status as a symbolic community token.

NFT: Little Pups - An Adorably Styled Avatar Collection - Artist: @cakedworld

Known as “Little Puppets” among Chinese players, this adorable avatar collection series is highly popular. It draws elements from Puppets and is a secondary creation by the community.

This community-created artwork is also well-liked on Discord.

Following this, several other community member creations emerged, such as:

le puppettes;

Chubby Puppets;

…

Due to time constraints, details on the diverse types of community secondary creations, all based on the original Puppet concept, will not be elaborated here. The NFT series currently recognized for identity group authentication on Discord includes:

o.p.i.u.m; Bitcoin Puppets; Shids; Propper indexxded shids.

RUNE: PUPS•WORLD•PEACE - A Symbolic Totem for World Peace - Deployer: @FarmerJoe0x

As mentioned earlier, the Rune PUPS NFT represents the \(PUPS team's initial step into the rune market. With the complete rollout of runes, the \)PUPS team also launched a project named PUPS•WORLD•PEACE.

The project’s name carries the same connotation as the puppet community’s culture, adhering to the principle of world peace. All runes for PUPS•WORLD•PEACE are held by the $PUPS team, and players cannot etch runes themselves. Therefore, there are two ways to obtain runes:

1. Through the official burning channel mentioned above, burn $PUPS tokens in exchange for runes at a 1:100 ratio.

2. Convert Rune PUPS NFTs into rune tokens through the burning channel.

According to current information, there is a limited time for burning Rune Pups NFTs.

There is currently no technology available on SOL to directly convert \(PUPS into runes. Therefore, \)PUPS on SOL must be cross-chained to BRC20, inscribed,

and then can be burned.

The burning plan for $PUPS tokens currently has no stated deadline. However, the team hopes to use this method to clear out “long-inactive addresses.”

This concludes the introduction to the PUP ecosystem.

Summary: The core assets of the entire PUP ecosystem can be divided into two major categories;

The NFT system primarily comprising O.p.i.u.m and Bitcoin Puppets, and the rune token system mainly involving $PUPS and PUPS•WORLD•PEACE.

$PUPS and PUPS•WORLD•PEACE are essentially the same, given that runes represent the final state in the token system.

Part One: 1.2 - THE SHED Community and Its Culture

THE SHED Community

Initially, this place served as a forum for Ordinals artists to interact. Here, artists create meaningful artworks, engraved on Bitcoin, influencing everyone in the cryptocurrency industry through the cultural and spiritual essence of their creations. Eventually, it became a gathering place for love, resembling a home where every individual is engaging, and everyone works together to promote world peace.

Holding any NFT asset from O.P.I.U.M, Bitcoin Puppets, Shids, or Propper indexxded shids allows for wallet verification on Discord, unlocking corresponding identity group authentication and channels. However, regardless of the asset you hold, nothing prevents you from experiencing love and participating in promoting world peace in THE SHED community.

Community Culture: World Peace

On the Puppets’ official website, there’s a declaration of world peace, which I have translated into Chinese for everyone’s reference:

“World Peace”

Why are Bitcoin Puppets considered the most significant cultural symbol in the history of asset classes?

We all know that attention drives liquidity, but we must also remember that culture drives attention. True, organic culture emerges through the cohesion of individuals, not through corporations or influencers. Whether you like it or not, puppets have now become a decisive cultural symbol on Bitcoin, primarily because we can all sense their sheer absurdity. They were created by a 12-year-old using MS Paint to make monkeys, which is absurd. This reflects the absurdity of the space we all inhabit. We’ve gambled on Dogecoin overnight, winning or losing millions, and we’ve sent millions to outright scammers. We are often exploited by governments worldwide. This is the reality emerging from an always-online digital society, where we’ve found a way to monetize over the past decade.

The left loves puppets because they represent everything they’re here for: making money on silly things. The right also loves puppets, for the same reason: making money on silly things. Moderates hate them because “well, the art looks terrible, there’s no roadmap, no utility,” but we all know that’s nonsense. If you’re here and you’re a moderate, you’ll never make it.

Puppets represent the pinnacle of crypto culture because they live on the edge, lurking in the shadows of financial and self-organized economic communities, free from any authority. We spin in laughter, screaming that the value of puppets will go to zero because we know that given enough time, everything will go to zero, even your precious fiat money. Whether you win everything or lose everything, all you can really do is laugh. We’re not crazy; we’re just ahead.

We know this is our generation’s last chance to escape the dull monotony of NPC wage slavery by riding the biggest financial turmoil wave we’ve ever seen, trading time for money, with the only real hope being to buy more time. No one will understand you, and when you win, they’ll say you were just lucky, but the puppets get it. We’re the home for the homeless, a warm cabin you return to before you dive back into the stormy everyday.

If you don’t believe me, or if you don’t understand, I don’t have the time to try to convince you, sorry. We’ll just watch you cope and get angry as we ride this wave all the way to the top.

Keep enjoying, keep succeeding, keep pushing, all for world peace.

Under the influence of this declaration, every member of THE SHED is committed to promoting world peace. In a sense, Puppets symbolize world peace, an artwork carrying noble ideals and visions.

Moreover, community members believe in karma, trusting that good deeds lead to good outcomes. Therefore, we hope to use puppets to transform the NFT ecosystem, shifting everyone from a profit-driven mindset to one filled with love. (@W4nkpire)

Addition:

During the BRC20 craze in Western countries in April 2024, @Decentralizd promoted the development of a token named “W☮️,” embodying the spirit of world peace embraced by the community. A new Twitter account was also set up to manage this project, and it planned related NFT and rune gameplay.

Addition 2:

THE SHED community embraces peace and does not maliciously criticize or clash with other projects. Some humorous jabs at Nodemonkey are because some bloggers are friends, just joking among themselves. Later, some Chinese misunderstood and brought these jokes into WeChat communities, adding their subjective assumptions, causing some unhappiness. But this was not the message THE SHED community intended to convey. World peace is what we all strive for.

Community Culture: BJBJ

Hmm, this is a greeting, to be precise, BJBJ is a greeting meaning “good morning,” similar to “GM” or “Hello.”

The abbreviation comes from the French “bonjour” (meaning “good morning”).

This meme originated in the earliest Lasogette community, which is the precursor NFT community to Puppets. When Lasogette was first released on Ethereum, the Puppet Master dressed up as a French sock puppet. Therefore, this word has been passed down in the puppet world.

Because it can easily be mistaken for the slang version of “blow job” (oral sex), it’s sometimes hard to tell whether people are saying good morning or…

BJBJ is also the most common and beloved way to greet each other in the community. You can find it wherever puppets appear, spreading across Twitter and Discord. If you encounter a puppet and say BJBJ, you’ll receive a warm response.

Supplementary Information:

After PUPS, in May 2023, someone deployed a BRC20 token named BJBJ on Unisat, which has not yet finished minting.

History often repeats itself. It’s uncertain whether NFTs will experience a resurgence due to Ordinals, but under the influence of the puppets, BJBJ might become the next GM (a community meme from the 2021 NFT boom, also meaning “good morning”).

Addition:

Following PUPS, in May 2023, someone deployed a BJBJ BRC20 on Unisat, which has not finished minting to date.

Community Culture: GO TO ZERO

Eventually, it will all go to zero. This is also a slogan of the community. Everyone believes the price of puppets should be zero because they are worthless and thus are not for sale. Instead, this has formed a group of steadfast “diamond hands.” It also serves as an advance warning to speculative buyers not to purchase, as this NFT is of no value.

Interestingly, it’s precisely because of this situation that NFT prices tend to rise, allowing everyone to gain unexpected financial benefits.

The origin of this culture can be traced back to @lepuppeteerfou’s artistic speech when creating puppets. I’ve done some translation into Chinese, which you can refer to:

About Art

Note that these puppets are not just toys. They transcend the boundaries of utility and are pure art. They were not designed according to any roadmap or grand promises and certainly do not meet the strict expectations of any corporate entity. Instead, these puppets represent the artist’s original creativity, celebrating the innate weirdness in all of us.

When you interact with these puppets, cast off the shackles of traditional thinking and dive into unconventional charm. Embrace this whim, enjoy the absurd, and let your imagination run wild. In this realm of handcrafted wonders, there are no guarantees, no predetermined paths to follow. This is an alternative haven, a testament to the unlimited possibilities of artistic expression.

About the Artist

In my realm, art knows no boundaries. It is not confined to galleries or museums but lives within the fabric of existence. My works challenge categorization, inviting you into a world where beauty and absurdity intertwine. Through the Ord Puppet Inu Undoxxed Millionaire puppets, you embark on a journey of wild imagination and endless possibilities.

Each puppet is a testament to karma (the consequences of good and evil). They are crafted with basic tools, embodying the raw essence of my artistic process, infused with immense effort and boundless passion. But they are more than just puppets; they are manifestations of the absurd, existing solely as art.

And as previously mentioned, the puppet community is extremely averse to commercial collaborations (marketing). The artists believe that true, pure art is an individual expression, not something to be exploited for attention through collaborations. The culture and essence of Puppets and its sole artist creator are its purest attributes.

If the pursuit of market visibility compromises the most genuine value of art, then art is no longer perfect. Commercial collaborations indeed offer great temptation, but they invariably fall into a zero-sum game, even though they are often packaged as non-zero-sum games.

Artists do not want their NFT artworks to become mere tools and means, so rejecting all commercial marketing collaborations is the best protection for the artwork itself. Art pieces firmly connect artists and collectors; if artists can persist in rejecting commercial collaborations, they are also being responsible for this sacred relationship.

In an NFT ecosystem filled with commercial marketing, rejecting commercial collaborations is a challenge. True success is not about being the center of attention but about steadfastly maintaining the bottom line to protect the purity of artworks, also constituting a rebellion against the commercialization of art.

Part Two: Investment Logic and Thought Process for Puppets (shaqima@daji_357)

I first encountered Puppets when Shids had just emerged. Being somewhat clumsy with primary markets, I was thrilled upon translating the leet speak meaning from a project tweet into Chinese late one night. I, too, am nostalgic, and the sight of art filled with Renaissance vibes excited me. Thus, I decisively bought a lot in the secondary market, all of which remain in my wallet untouched to this day.

This opportunity also led me to join THE SHED community, where I was fortunate enough to become a MOD.

Those who have followed me from the start might have seen my previous views. Ordinals were just beginning, with a very small market, and everyone was scrambling for territory. However, the methods and cultural cores were different. Western countries preferred the form of NFTs, while Eastern countries favored the BRC20 approach.

After the wealth created by protocols and BRC20, the player base in China is essentially saturated. In these projects, the proportion of actual Western country players is probably less than 1%.

After the incremental market ended, we faced the dilemma of stock market games. Faced with large capital, the only choice is to continue seeking incremental markets. The question then becomes: how do we involve global cryptocurrency enthusiasts in this Bitcoin ecosystem carnival?

Therefore, after a frenzy in May 2023, I kept an eye on and selected projects that genuinely embody a Western logical framework, rather than those combining Eastern and Western gimmicks.

Coincidentally, SHEDS appeared at this time. Its pure language logic and underlying cultural MEME are unique to Western cultural systems, not something that can be quickly achieved by simply changing locations and translating languages. It requires a long period of Western thinking and lifestyle recognition to build.

Similarly, for exchanges, expanding their revenue either involves increasing product lines (the number of Tokens) or enlarging user groups. Launching new products is easy, but ensuring no issues arise afterward is difficult; therefore, extensive research and selection are necessary to meet safety needs. However, increasing user groups is different. Today’s Chinese users are nearly saturated, and even if new incremental traffic joins, the options are limited, equivalent to having already established dominance on the inevitable path, so domestic users don’t need to worry too much. Spending significant resources on domestic increments is not worth the effort.

Thus, the remaining increments lie in overseas markets. Nowadays, more overseas projects are primarily based on MEME culture, which cannot be rapidly cultivated overnight (for instance, PEPE, DOGE, SHIB…). Therefore, emerging stars in overseas MEMEs are favored by exchanges.

In the first article, I mentioned that the development of the Bitcoin ecosystem impacts the entire industry, after all, it’s linked to Bitcoin itself. Therefore, as long as you are a promoter in the cryptocurrency industry, you will unhesitatingly push its development. Everyone benefits from the rise in Bitcoin. Similarly, miners are also beneficiaries in the Bitcoin ecosystem, and they are not a single group belonging to any one country. Overall, a global carnival in the Bitcoin ecosystem is almost something everyone wants to see and strives to promote.

This is the major logic I use when selecting projects. Once I determine the exact targets, I just need to conduct research in the same way the exchanges do. Therefore, the investment process in projects is aligned.

Besides that, it’s about spreading cultural cores.

When SHEDS first appeared, my friend Mr. Lin and I had dinner in Hangzhou, where he introduced me to the culture of wizards on Bitcoin (an interesting video propagation case), further realizing that MEMEs with cultural cores have significant advantages in propagation and spread. For this reason, the more I explored the culture of THE SHEDS, the more I loved it. The culture here is irresistible. What could be more charming than this pure free thought?

In a way, this culture provides a greater sense of belonging. For those lowly marketing tactics that don’t even bother to think about upgrading their strategies for a few pieces of silver, it’s disdainful. In an ecosystem filled with fake schemes, purity becomes a sanctuary. Nothing narrates a more meaningful story than promoting world peace by opposing copyrights, rejecting commercialization, and maintaining the purity of artworks.

Sometimes, it’s not that we don’t understand. With a history spanning five thousand years, these phrases familiar to us all have been overlooked today. It’s just that we’re often too rushed to look and think. The phrase “descendants of Yan and Huang, heirs of the Dragon,” has supported us all along. Isn’t this the core of today’s MEME? We’ve had it for so long that it’s become second nature.

MEME is never just a revelry or nonsensical affair, but a cultural heritage, a medium that provides a sense of belonging and recognition. If you’ve read this far and still don’t understand, take another look at modern history. Aren’t we here today because of the phrase “striving for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation”? You see, many things have been demonstrated by our ancestors in history, it’s just that sometimes, the concept has changed, but its core remains the same.

Addition*:*

In the past few days, as I’ve been posting about PUP, I’ve received many private messages asking for information. To better help everyone who loves the culture of THE SHED community understand PUP-related information directly,

considering that some may not be able to check Twitter or be online on Discord immediately, I’ve created a Puppets Chinese Twitter account (@Puppets_China) and am planning to form a PUP-related WeChat group.

The PUP WeChat group will maintain the style of THE SHED, welcoming everyone who likes PUP culture to join and share and discuss PUP-related content. This will also help more people without Twitter access to join THE SHED’s Discord.

You can follow the methods to join the community announced on Puppets Chinese Twitter (@Puppets_China).

Part Three: Putting Theory into Practice, Lessons from Puppets Worth Learning

Seeing some copycat projects using poor “three men make a tiger” marketing tactics to fleece numerous people does cause some heartache. The final goal of this article is to help some ambitious project artists create more meaningful and excellent projects. Today, I believe more people are not satisfied with being mere copycats but have a passion deep within to create good, original products.

First, we’ll skip the part about the cultural core, as it has been mostly covered above.

Community Spirit

One of the most valuable lessons from Puppets is its community’s embracing spirit, an unselfish inclusiveness and complete acceptance. Every community member accepts the occurrence of new derivative assets. In the overarching community culture, price is not the primary pursuit.

Even without buying, new derivative assets in the community, as long as they are not excessively profit-driven, essentially serve as promotions. After all, as core assets continue to rise, some financially limited users can’t fully join this carnival. Instead, these new assets launch with affordable prices, allowing everyone to participate in this cultural revelry with acceptable stakes. Even if it ends up as a mess, those with substantial financial gains will still opt to buy core assets. Thus, its essence not only increases influence and audience but also serves as a longer cycle of increments for core assets.

Therefore, for creations with pure intentions, embodying artistic and community spirits, every community member is willing to promote them.

Internal conflicts are actually highly detrimental to the community. For instance, there was an incident where a certain Chinese player, who owned Puppets, publicly criticized SHIDS and other community assets simply because the NFT prices were too low. This was just for show and went against the core principles of THE SHED community. Even though he was a holder, his actions did not align with the community’s values. One of the core tenets of THE SHED community is to embrace and support the community’s artistic creations, without using price as the primary measure of an artwork’s value.

Thus, the core culture of the community determines its cohesion. For those who seek attention and wish to overturn tables after a meal, they cannot fulfill their desires to cause trouble in the face of absolute community cohesion.

Expanding Influence

There’s an old Chinese saying: “Haste does not bring success,” and the current state of Puppets has been achieved through years of cultural accumulation. Therefore, in today’s fast-paced internet environment, I do not recommend high-profile launches for financial products.

Today’s cryptocurrency market is not an infinite cake, especially during a phase when the overall market is slowly recovering, and the user group is limited. If the volume spreads to the collective from the start, it cannot bring long-term drive; the overall presented data would be a dramatic rollercoaster since more people mean more ideas, making any planning or grounding impossible (assuming you have a great vision).

Allowing the market increment to proceed slowly is advisable. Creating artworks is not like running an exchange where more people are always better. A good product can maintain the speed of the overall market increment and progress in sync.

To put it simply, if there are 10,000 people in the entire market and your debut attracts all 10,000, you’d need to consider repurchases or look beyond these 10,000 for further increments. But if the square adds 1,000 people daily, yet these 1,000 cannot ensure your data stability, massive fluctuations would cause your reputation to decline. Thus, one action affects the whole, creating a butterfly effect.

If, under the same circumstances, you choose to first let a few thousand people know, then maintain an increase of 500 people daily, as long as the market is in an incremental phase, your market size is potentially infinite.

I hope more outstanding artworks emerge in China and worldwide. World peace.

This concludes the content of this article. The overall article is quite lengthy, totaling over ten thousand words. I hope it can bring needed value to everyone.

I hope the culture of THE SHED community can be perpetually passed down. For world peace.
