Taproot Wizards Debut Sale of Bitcoin NFTs 'Quantum Cats' Marred by Tech Issues

The much-anticipated sale of a debut collection of "Quantum Cats" Bitcoin inscriptions by the Ordinals project Taproot Wizards was marred by technical issues on Monday, leaving users frustrated and forcing an embarrassing delay. The planned sale of around 3,000 digital cats, designed to honor a Bitcoin improvement proposal known as OP_CAT, commenced with a two-hour "whitelist" window at 17:00 UTC (noon ET) on Monday. The collection was on sale for 0.1 BTC ($4,300), meaning as much as 300 BTC ($12.9 million) could have been raised if every cat was to be sold. The first item in the Quantum Cats series, a special image known as "Genesis Cat," sold earlier this month on the auction house.
