On November 3rd, at 5 AM, @rodarmor announced a limited-time puzzle game lasting eight hours with a prize called "cactusseeds," part of the "Dia De Pixales" collection, which is the first inscription on the Ordinals protocol. The term "cactusseeds" refers to a sub-sub inscription within the Ordinals hierarchy. The puzzle included coordinates "25138 / 29746" leading to Casey's location on the 2b2t Minecraft server, known for its chaotic environment. @Rhynohowl1 was the first to find Casey and claimed the "cactusseeds" as a reward. This player had little prior knowledge of Ordinals, and the opportunity arose from information shared by streamer riths and @Brunno_UTXO. @Rhynohowl1 listed the inscription on Magic Eden for 10 BTC, despite lower offers. Following the event, Casey promoted the inscription ecosystem, leading to increased value for another inscription, "MEMENTO•MORI."
