That would have been very welcome Haloxon Wink

But thank you... and I'm glad you enjoyed the show... Grin

I think I got outbid within 60 seconds Grin

.

But it was the most Glorious 60 seconds... you sir were on fire

Thank you so much for being part of it

One thing we've learned is that 72 hours for an auction isn't 3 days its 4... its 1 day too long

Future auctions will be 48 hours

Anyways... thank you again

This is a great piece of art, wish you all the best with the auction!

I guess that this does not work like @cryptograffiti previous lightning auction, where the first person to bid the smallest amount being the winner... Roll Eyes

At least, if all the others higher bidders above me are just bluffing, I still have chances winning this auction... Grin

Hey Tweetious

Thank you so much for taking part... you helped get the momentum going... this is a massive learning curve for us

Grin

no this is not like @cryptograffiti's Black Swan... I love that piece, one of my favourites of his... and the auction I missed (because it was so quick obviously lol) but I guess it went to the first person to type in 1 sat + tx fees ... no this is more of the dictionary definition of an auction, competitive bidding, highest bid wins Grin

Cryptograffiti's I think was pure art... the auction itself was a one-off piece of pure art made by https://twitter.com/notgrubles @notgrubles ... it was all a statement about little is big... the smallest amounts buying the smallest piece of art that's about a massive event

He's a clever guy that Cryptograffti ... much love and respect for him and grubles too

This piece is much more literal... it's a phoenix taking flight holding a bitcoin and its launching the first platform doing traditional auctions on lightning thats going to contribute to building out the economy, apps, dapps, built on top of bitcoin layer 2

Anyways... apologies for waffling on here... thank you again my friend thank you

Digital scarcity is a one-time discovery.

Thank you very much Mopar

I wish you the best of luck

You're taking part in the very first auction of its kind on the bitcoin lightning network

This is just a stepping stone but we will be building out the platform into a marketplace that provides full provenance for bitcoin art and collectables

So thank you for being part of the journey Wink

Hello folks,

Finally we have created live auctions on the Lightning Network... it's an enormous honour to be the first bitcoin artist to release a piece of work on the platform

The auction will be held on the Scarce City website https://scarce.city/ today at 19:00 UTC, 2pm ET, 11 PST

Relentless Optimism

It's a collaborative piece between myself and my girlfriend mosaic.rocks

It's is a one-off 1/1 unique piece - we couldn't make it the same if we tried

Materials: Oak Veneer top, Italian Smalti glass, high density fibre board, Beeswax, wood oil, 22 carat gold leaf... and a flame torch to singe the wings Wink

The full description with detailed closeups and video is on my site here:

The postage estimate is based on going from the UK to the USA West Coast... since COVID this has doubled... anywhere else in the world it's about 1/4 the price... I also will be giving it some serious packaging
