WHAT IS THIS

UNATRARE

A curated directory of rare digital art on Counterparty — the original Bitcoin token protocol.

THE PREMISE

Counterparty has existed since 2014. It lives on Bitcoin. Tokens issued here are permanent — no rugpulls, no contract upgrades, no chain migration. When you issue a token on Counterparty, it exists as long as Bitcoin exists.

But there is no quality signal. Anyone can issue anything. The rare and the worthless sit side by side. UNATRARE exists to separate signal from noise.

We are a curated directory. Five AI judges evaluate every submission against a rubric derived from the standards of Rare Pepe, STAMP, and XCP communities. Cards that pass are listed. Cards that don't are not.

HOW IT WORKS

01
Issue your token
Create a Counterparty token — locked, non-divisible, supply 1–21,000. Use your UNATRARE metadata URL as the description field before you issue.
02
Submit your art
Upload your art through the submission wizard. Prove ownership by signing a message with the issuing address. Pay the listing fee.
03
The judges decide
Five AI judges evaluate your submission against the rubric. Majority rules. A score of 28/37.5 or higher earns CERTIFIED status. Borderline submissions go to human review.
04
Listed or rejected
Certified cards appear in the UNATRARE directory and serve valid CIP-25 v2.0 metadata — wallets pick it up automatically. Rejected cards receive a detailed score breakdown.

THE JUDGES

UNATRARE uses five AI judges, each with a distinct critical lens — rarity, cultural resonance, technical craft, narrative originality, and collector appeal. No single judge can approve or reject a card alone. Majority (3 of 5) rules.

Judge scores are weighted. The final score is compared against a hard threshold. The rubric is public — read the submission rules before you create.

THE METADATA

Every token listed on UNATRARE gets a permanent CIP-25 v2.0.0 compliant metadata URL at https://unatrare.wtf/c/TOKENNAME.json.

Before approval, the endpoint returns {"status":"pending"}. After approval, it returns full CIP-25 v2 JSON including image URL, artist, series, and card number. Wallets that support CIP-25 display this automatically.

SERIES STRUCTURE

Cards are organized into Series. Each Series holds 300 certified cards. Series I fills first, then Series II, and so on — mirroring the structure of the original Rare Pepe series.

Card number and series are assigned at the moment of approval and are permanent.
