Orenda Holder II by AdamKadmon

At first glance, any average person would say or even gut feel that any empty block containing no transactions in it is wasted computing power. 

Not a single transaction has gone into these blocks, except the subsidy for mining it, not a single person has exchanged value, this block has contributed nothing to the good of humanity. 

Of course, this is not quite the case for the more technically savvy members of the community.

With my Orenda Holders series, I attach additional value to those ghost blocks in which nothing interesting has happened. The coin they hold in the center is the essence of that value. 

The Orenda coin design was done by me, and the manufacturing/assembly was done by MrMojoRising26 a known coin maker on the bitcointalk forum. The coin is .999 Fine Silver and weighs 1 Troy ounce. The coin is 40mm In diameter, and 2.8 mm thick. Only 39 coins were minted for this release.

Orenda Holder II is holding the coin N37. 


The second Orenda holder was created for an empty block number 857116. 

The composition of the sculpture is assembled on three axes that are seemingly Diadrally symmetrical, but in fact chaos ensues beneath the first layer. Order in this chaos is represented by the reference to the flower of life, which embraces and holds the coin in the centre. The gold plating, in addition to enclosing and focusing the centre, suggests its specific message of an important symbol that has come down to us from deep antiquity. 

The flower of life has many spiritual meanings including oneness, unity, connection, and unanimity. These are the messages that Bitcoin has brought to the world. Bitcoin is not just a technology, it is an idea that has given humanity spiritual growth through the understanding that there is something very broken in the fiat system we were born into. 

Bitcoin is an idea, it is not an expression of how many dollars you have on the blockchain. Bitcoin is oneness, we are constantly connected to each other through our nodes, and we are always unanimous.

All the coins from 11 to 39 are buyers funded.
