Halving Homecoming 🎉
It’s a big week for Bitcoin — we’re counting down to the fourth Bitcoin halving with daily drops on Gamma.
To celebrate, we brought four artists home to Bitcoin for their debut releases. Each piece will be available to mint for 24 hrs at 21,000 sats each. Collect all four pieces to receive a special edition airdrop inscription from 𝐆ΛDFŁ𝐘 ♛!
Without further ado…here’s the art:
Soulboy by @axstonee
Let the music set your spirit free!
Weirdoverse by @dave_van_patten
Step into a mesmerizing journey through time and pop culture with this eclectic art piece, which seamlessly blends the vibrant energy of 90s nostalgia, the eerie allure of 80s horror movies, and the quirky charm of 60s underground comics, including the iconic works of R. Crumb.
The piece exudes a fusion of influences, reminiscent of the crude and humorous style of Mike Judge intertwined with the retro-futuristic aesthetics of classic sci-fi. Echoes of psychedelia reminiscent of Rene Laloux's "Fantastic Planet" add an extra layer of depth and intrigue to this captivating ensemble.
21 ETERNAL by @tiffatronn
An ode to youth, prosperity + hope for the future.
Boundless Sands by @GiulioAprin
We were about to leave the Idehan Ubari to enter the Al-Hamra Plateau, when we had to find shelter in this boundless sea of sand.
The last minutes before setting camp we were surfing up and down the giant dunes chasing the sun setting on the horizon. A moment of peace and silence.
The sand dancing with the light changes a thousand colours during a day, but it reaches its pinnacle of splendour as evening approaches.
It finally comes alive and finds shape, enveloping you as if to offer protection before the onset of darkness.
Also minting now…
The Revenant by @travisleroy
The Revenant is a story about bitcoin, death and digital art by Travis LeRoy Southworth. The series of 476 GIFs follow each instance bitcoin was proclaimed ‘dead’ by various media outlets.
We sat down with Travis, an OG NFT artist to discuss his inspiration behind The Revenant and artistry behind these unique creations. Watch the full interview on Youtube.
The Revenant is now available to mint on Gamma in a lazy dutch auction. Check out the collection here.

Michael Saylor - Decentral Eyes by Coldie
As we approach the fourth BTC halvening, an undeniably historical moment, there is no better figure to become immortalized on the Bitcoin blockchain in true Coldie Decentral Eyes fashion than Michael Saylor.
Built into this OE is the chance to own the 1/1 Master portrait. Shortly after the OE closes, a window will open for wallets to accrue the minimum requirement of 2,000 portraits at which time a ”King of the Hill” type ranked auction kicks off. The wallet that holds the most OE portraits at the snapshot date will then qualify to redeem the 1/1.
Decentral Eyes is now available to mint on Gamma.
Encircling the yin-yang by Yoni Alter
In this generative art project, each sphere represents the yin and yang symbol.
The generative animations employ a blend of contrasting and complementary colors, textures, and patterns to illustrate the interconnected relationship between yin and yang. As the artwork progresses, one will witness the interplay of light and darkness, softness and hardness, and tranquility and chaos, all symbolizing the inherent dualities that underlie the universe.
Encircling the yin-yang is now minting on Gamma.
