♾️via ord command line

Cheaper but more complex.

We do not provide the tools to create Unlimited Blanks inscriptions. Instead we recommend you use a trusted 3rd party provider, or the ord command line tool if you have the technical expertise.

Installation and configuration of the ord command line tools is beyond the scope of this document. These are the same tools used to etch runes so the installation process is the same.

Caveats

Currently ord.io doesn't handle delegate inscriptions properly. If this is a concern for you then you can upload this as an HTML file instead of using delegation.

<html><head><style>*{box-sizing:border-box}body,html{margin:0;padding:0}body{align-items:center;display:flex;justify-content:center;overflow:hidden}canvas{display:block}#container{position:relative}.spinner{transform-origin:center;animation:1.4s linear infinite spinning}@keyframes spinning{100%{transform:rotate(360deg)}}@media (orientation:portrait){.max{width:100vw;height:100vw}}@media (orientation:landscape){.max{width:100vh;height:100vh}}</style></head><body><div id="container"><svg class="max" version="1.2" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 100 100"><circle class="spinner" cx="50" cy="50" r="32" stroke="#ff6020" stroke-width="5" stroke-dasharray="50.26548245743669 50.26548245743669" fill="none" stroke-linecap="round"></circle></svg></div><script type="module">(async()=>{const{InscriptionsApi:a}=await import("/content/faa5e0ec84bc59639aba00a7879fafb13ffcdb7dd1e79d2d35cc18066eb5c0c3i0"),c=new a,{sources:f}=await import("/content/a2893c310fa9b1d5d9d3ef20c1faa82f3fce459280c4ef82fbaf1ee81f72960bi0"),{default:e}=await import(f.scripts.entry);e(f,c,"6c527dd10de1c946255a7a40f56c220d5be2a487cd6fa7fa78a09fe2f4fcf86ei2")})()</script></body></html>

Step 1 - Metadata

First you'll need to create a file containing the metadata generated by the Canvas tool. Give the file a .json extension. In the example below we use metadata.json.

Metadata is a long string of serialized data in JSON format. The more colors you have the longer your metadata will be. The metadata must be enclosed in double quotes.

"18/000/fff/ff602059|5:11|69|6:11|79|7:10|7:11|7:12|85|89|8:10|8:12|95|99|9:10|9:11|9:12|10:5|10:6|10:7|10:8|10:9|1010|1011|11:5|11:6|11:7|11:8|11:9|1110|1111|12:5|12:6|12:7|12:8|12:9|1210|1211|13:5|13:9|1311"

Step 2 - Inscription

You'll use 4fb16cb8362e117f671fdbc105d6738887cd58432d25cec328212e217426f4fdi0 for the delegate inscription ID, and you'll need to supply a path to your metadata file. The command looks like this.

ord wallet inscribe \
  --delegate 4fb16cb8362e117f671fdbc105d6738887cd58432d25cec328212e217426f4fdi0 \
  --json-metadata ./metadata.json \
  --postage 1000sat \
  --fee-rate 22

Or if you're using the HTML file instead of delegation then you'd use something like this.

Adjust the fee rate to a rate you're comfortable with after checking the mempool.
