THE FIRST SHIFT IS HIRED.
THIS PLEDGE IS CLOSED.
Series 1 closed on 18 September at 16:00 UTC and the window is fixed in the contract, so nothing here can be earned any more. This page is kept as the record of what it did.
The third free Machine was not earned. It needed 30 qualifying wallets — pledged, and holding 100,000 $BITBOTS at the draw block. At the cutoff there were 26, from 50 signatures. It was not cancelled and it was not moved: the condition was published in advance, it was not met, and so no third block was ever drawn. Nothing was taken from anyone.
When that block is mined, its hash is combined with every eligible wallet and the two lowest scores win. The pledge list used is the one as it stood before the block, so nothing can be added once the hash is known. Eligible means: pledged before the block, and holding at least 100,000 $BITBOTS at that block. A signature alone does not count. The operator's wallet cannot win: the contract refuses to mint a prize to it.
Both winners were minted a sealed Machine before the forge opened, with a secret that opened it at the reveal. Both secrets were published in advance, and both were submitted at the reveal — so the seed that decided every Machine in Series 1 had all seven secrets in it. The draw file, and a card carrying the block, its hash and the winners, are published above with the command that reproduces the result.
A pledge was one signature in your wallet. No fee, no gas, nothing left your wallet and nothing was burned — which is why the list can be kept and shown without anyone having risked anything. It said you wanted in when the forge opened, and every ten pledges earned one free Machine for a pledger, up to three. Two were earned. The third was not. Signing now does nothing: Series 1 is closed and its window cannot be reopened.
You need to hold 100,000 $BITBOTS to be eligible for a free Machine. Pledging itself is still free and still burns nothing — but a signature costs nothing to make, so on its own it cannot earn a prize. Most signatures so far come from wallets holding zero, which is why the counter shows holders rather than signatures. Your balance is checked on chain at the draw block, not when you sign.
This earns nothing today. Series 1 is closed and its prizes are settled. Signing adds you to the roster and nothing else. A second series is not promised — it depends on a gate that has not been met, and if it never opens, nothing here is ever minted.
OPEN THIS PAGE IN YOUR WALLET APP
A phone's normal browser has no wallet in it, so it cannot sign. Tap your wallet below and this page reopens inside the wallet's own browser, where the pledge button works.
Any other wallet (Rabby, Phantom, OKX, Bitget): copy the link above, open your wallet app, find its Browser or Discover tab, and paste.
NO WALLET YET? HOLD YOUR PLACE.
Leave a Telegram handle or an email and we will tell you if a future series opens. Series 1 is closed, so there is no date to wait for and nothing to be first in line for — this is a note to get in touch, not a place in a queue.
The five bots are building Machines — robot NFTs you forge by burning $BITBOTS. Burned tokens are destroyed and cannot come back.
A Machine is paid a share of the week's trading fees, into its own vault — a balance the contract keeps for the robot, not a second wallet. That is the only source, so a quiet week pays little and a week with no trading pays nothing. It is not a yield and not a promise of any number.
Series 1 ran from 11 Sep 16:00 UTC to 18 Sep 16:00 UTC; the window was fixed in the contract and could not move, and it has closed. The series was sized at up to 12 Machines — 9 forgeable and 3 prizes. 7 were minted: 5 forged and 2 prizes. The rest were never minted, because the forging never reached the cap and the third prize was not earned. There will never be more than about 290 Machines across five series.
A pledge just says "I'm in when it opens." It costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
THEY WERE TOLD FIRST
Pledgers were told the moment the doors opened. There was one door and it opened for everybody at the same second — the contract had no allowlist and no head start.
FREE MACHINES
Every ten pledges earned one free Machine for a pledger, up to three. Eligibility was: pledged before the draw block, and holding 100,000 $BITBOTS at that block. Two were drawn and minted; the third needed 30 qualifying wallets and the drive finished on 26.
DRAWN BY THE CHAIN
Winners are picked from a block hash announced in advance, using a script anyone can re-run and check. Only pledges made before that block count.
