Taproot Wizards, the project behind Bitcoin Ordinals, has experienced significant difficulties in launching its “Quantum Cats” collection as NFTs on the Bitcoin blockchain.

This setback adds to the growing attention around the integration of NFTs into the Bitcoin network and the repercussions on their original objectives.

In the initial attempt to sell around 3,000 “Quantum Cats” on Monday, the Taproot Wizards team ran into technical issues, resulting in the sale being suspended with a promise to resume 24 hours later.

However, things did not go as planned, and the team opted to postpone the sale until Thursday.

Unfortunately, on the eve of the resumption, they announced another delay, setting the new date for February 5.

This marks the third delay in the release of the Quantum Cats collection

The collection, made up of 3,000 cats, each with a fixed price of 0.1 BTC, could theoretically raise around $12 million, easily surpassing the $7.5 million raised by the company the previous year.

Taproot Wizards admitted to underestimating community demand for “Quantum Cats.”

This incident reflects the broader debate within the Bitcoin community regarding the integration of NFTs and their impact on the network’s original goals.
