How to Upgrade Your OCM Genesis to Bitcoin
The upgrade of Genesis to Bitcoin is a significant move for digital artifacts and our OCM community. OCM Genesis are high-value assets and we want to ensure a secure upgrade for every Genesis owner. You will need to have an Xverse Wallet. When the Upgrade Portal is open on OnChainMonkey.com you will be able to upgrade your Genesis to Bitcoin. Upgrading your Genesis with a Bitcoin Badge to Bitcoin is easy:
1) Connect the Ethereum wallet containing the Genesis you wish to upgrade to our website.
2) Using the same process as (1), connect the Xverse Bitcoin Ordinals wallet you wish to receive your BTC Genesis at to our website. NOTE: If you do not use the same browser for both your ETH and BTC wallets, you will need to first connect to our website with either a Discord or Twitter account to ‘log-in’ prior to connecting each of these wallets.
3) During the upgrade flow, select from the ETH and BTC wallets you have connected previously to indicate which Genesis you want to teleburn, and where you want to receive them on Bitcoin.
4) At the end of the upgrade flow, you will have to sign (2) transactions. The first is an ‘approval’ transaction that allows a smart-contract to move your Genesis. The second is the contract interaction transaction that teleburns your Genesis, allowing you to claim an OCM Genesis on Bitcoin. You will need ETH in your wallet to pay the Ethereum Gas fees for the second transaction.
The OCM Genesis Bitcoin Upgrade Involves a “Teleburn”
Upgrading your OCM Genesis to Bitcoin involves a teleburn. This is not a "burn" but a transfer of the Ledger of Record. Additionally, you will receive four new digital artifacts on Bitcoin!

OCM Genesis: 20219
OCM Genesis: Deconstructed
OCM Genesis: Certificate of Ownership
Each is a new 10k collection. The last one is the certificate of your ownership of your original ETH OCM Genesis after the teleburn, a conceptual art work and ritual that is the beginning of a new era for ownership (see next section for more details). Even after the Ethereum Genesis is teleburned, your ownership of the Ethereum asset remains intact; and the record of this now resides on the Bitcoin ledger. Your OCM Genesis on Ethereum is now soul-bound and permanently linked to your OCM Genesis on Bitcoin. You will own five digital artifacts after the upgrade process is complete and you claim your Bitcoin OCM Genesis as an Ordinal!
The Conceptual Art of OCM Genesis on Bitcoin
The concept of art, rich in its interpretations, is exemplified through OCM Genesis on Bitcoin. Over 3,000 Genesis have undergone a unique process known as 'Cooking.' This process, unveiled after a Genesis owner partakes in the teleburn ritual, serves more than simple preparation for the upgrade to Bitcoin; it begins a ritual between you and our team that results in the creation of the OCM Certificate of Ownership for your Ethereum Genesis. This certificate is not just a legal document certifying ownership of your OCM Genesis on Ethereum, but a form of conceptual art inspired by the innovative works of Mitchell F Chan's Digital Zones and Yves Klein's Zones de Sensibilité Picturale Immatérielle.
