🚀 Ord Dropz is opening the Shielded Launchpad, and the first official project after Naka will launch on the Shielded protocol. Until now Nakas has been the only official collection on our indexer. That changes soon. 🔍 Fully transparent by design. Every shielded collection starts with a parent inscription that carries the rules. Anyone can read it on chain, any time. 🔒 Once the parent is inscribed, the rules are set in stone. The artist cannot change the mint price. The artist cannot change the supply. Nobody can. 🔢 Shielded numbering continues where Nakas left off. Nakas holds #0 to #3332, the next collection picks up at #3333. Still sub 10K shielded. 🎁 Wallet rewards are being prepared. Nakas holders are the only ones receiving them. We are not opening this to any other project, so please don't ask. 🧪 We experiment. Runinals put art and a bonded rune on one UTXO. We’re bringing privacy to ordinals with the Shielded Vault. We will keep bringing the newest tech to the people who use our launchpad. 🛠️ Founder tools next. When a collection mints out on the Launchpad, founders will be able to create its gallery on our secondary and send it straight to other marketplaces for faster listing. We want to be the number one launchpad, and we look forward to working with other marketplaces to carry our launches after mint out. More soon.

SHNAKAS 🔒 is the first rune of a live shielded protocol on Bitcos Bitcoin. START BLOCK 👉 971,700 No team allocation. No mint. It is earned one way: holding Shielded Nakas unlisted, from now until the Bitcoin halving. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ₿ Bitcoin culture is a different type of culture. Have you noticed things move a little slower here? There is a trade-off. Speed matters, but so does security. We are building with that priority in mind. Bitcoin culture is also about finding art you like and holding it, not just flipping it. So we wanted to reward both collectors and people who like to speculate. Every single piece can earn. Some earn more based on how collectors value their traits. We are using hoodies as an example, but this applies to all qualifying traits. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Here is exactly how it works. 🧵 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔒 Every eligible unlisted Naka earns every block. Hold one, you earn. Hold ten, you earn ten times. Each piece is tracked individually. If you own 5 Nakas and list 2: • The 3 unlisted pieces keep earning. • The 2 listed pieces earn nothing. • Listing one piece does not stop your other eligible pieces from earning. Delisting does not immediately restart that piece's earnings. It becomes eligible again at the next weekly reward boundary. So if you delist in the middle of the week, that piece waits until the next weekly boundary to start earning again. You do not have to wait seven full days if that boundary comes sooner. Your other eligible pieces keep earning throughout. Listed pieces earn nothing, and their share is never minted. Nobody else gets it either. It just does not exist. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚖️ Not every Naka earns the same. Your piece has a weight. Base is 1ow numbers add to it. They stack, up to a cap of 400%. Nobody gets a ridiculous amount, but the people holding what the market values most earn the most. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📊 What counts as rare? The market decides, not us. Each trait's floor is measured against the collection floor at the start of every quarter, on chain. • Traits trading at 1.25x floor earn +25%. • 1.5x earns +50%. • 2x earns +75%. • 3x and up earns +100%. Every trait on your piece counts. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🧢 Right now that means every hoodie colour, every cap colour, Halo,et, Blue Checker, 3D Glasses and dozens more. Hoodies and hats are the obvious ones. They are examples, not the list. Any trait the market values earns. Any trait that starts getting collected starts earning. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔢 Numbers stack on top. • Sub 1K +50%. • Sub 100 +100%. • Sub 10 +200%. • A Black Hoodie: 200%. • A Red Cap on a Sub 1K: 250%. • A White Hoodie with 3D Glasses on a Sub 100: capped at 400%. • A plain Naka in the 1000s: 100%, still earning every block. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔄 Weights are re-read every quarter. If a group holds a colour or a hat off the floor, that trait's weight rises for everyone holding it. If a trait gets dumped, it falls. Holding together pays. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔐 Claiming happens in your Shielded Vault. Claim privately for the for its full weight. Owners stay hidden either way. Emission ends at the halving. Full rules go on chain before epoch 0. Hold your Nakas.

lots going on with the shielded naka collections we're building. if you minted or hold a naka and you're not in our discord yet, get in there early shielded numbers are carrying a real premium over the $17 floor: • sub 10: 0.69 btc (~$58,900) • sub 100: 0.00148 btc (~$126) • sub 1k: 0.00025 btc (~$21) • sub 10k: 0.000199 btc (~$17) some traits are listed way above mint too people saying nakas are doing bad because they're not on the other launchpads or marketplaces is completely false. nakas have done more volume in the last 3 days than the blue chips ord-dropz is non-vc funded. i built every piece of it myself. you don't need huge vc money, you just need to be passionate, show up every single day, and cook 🧑‍🍳

yo i'm motivated af, got a million ideas running through my head... we threw ourselves in the trenches and the mint was smooth. still need to dial in secondary, but everything batched and we proved privacy can happen on bitcoin ordinals L1 this tech is literally a week old. imagine what it looks like a month from now. two months from now 🚀

SHIELDED NAKAS HAS MINTED OUT 🛡️ 3,333 Nakas. Minted out in a few hours. Quick update: around 86 pieces are still in the mempool waiting for block confirmations. If yours is still pending, hang tight while those confirmations come through. After a week running on barely a few hours of sleep, I finally crashed. Woke up to a minted-out collection. That’s bullish for Ordinals. What excites me even more is what comes next. Your support has given us some runway, and we’re putting it straight back into building. Our goal is to build the best shielded protocol on Bitcoin, and we’re going to keep working toward it. More work on privacy. More improvements to the protocol. A long-term commitment to what we’ve started. Thank you to everyone who minted, shared the project, and helped us get here. This means a lot. The build continues. 🛡️
