What are Motoko Sentinels?
Motoko Sentinels is a highly gamified 10,000 piece Ordinals collection and the second Motoko collection designed by Jon Ball of Poked Studios. His artwork revolves around the iconic Motoko ghost character, with 3D animated artwork depicting each Sentinel flying through space.
Launched before Halving, the collection was issued in just three days and is currently a Top 30 Bitcoin Ordinals project by secondary trading volume.
Holders complete missions to earn XP, which unlocks new layers of art and additional functionality. This includes the ability to mint Runes from the Ordinal, with work on the ability to enroll BRC-20 tokens and bridge tokens within the Bitcoin ecosystem currently on the roadmap.
What is Bioniq?
Bioniq is a fast, easy-to-use and feature-rich Ordinals marketplace. Founded in February 2023, the platform uses ICP’s ckBTC digital Bitcoin twin to keep transaction fees at 10 sats regardless of native chain fees, while also providing a seamless user experience for both new and experienced users.
In addition, Bioniq wants to add extra functionality to Ordinals collections. Using Bioniq’s gaming standard, creators can use interactions between NFT holders to create web3 games, unlocking additional ways for communities to engage with the collections they care about. This hinges on Bioniq’s promise of Dynamic Ordinals, which provide greater utility to holders while adding more flexibility to the Ordinals ecosystem – enabled by leveraging smart ICP contracts.
Motoko Sentinels’ artwork is powered by BitGen, a custom inscription standard developed by Bioniq that reduces inscription fees to only slightly higher than a typical Bitcoin transaction. Due to its 3D animated nature, each Sentinels collectible is larger than 100 KB, meaning BitGen Standard could save registrants hundreds of thousands of dollars in registration fees.
Bob Bodily, CEO of Bioniq, noted that; “Sentinels are a great showcase of amazing art combined with the latest Ordinal and Bitcoin Layer-2 technology. We believe new developments in Bitcoin L2s will make Ordinals the most exciting tech stack for NFT, gaming and more.”
