Inscirbe your manifesto by downloading the manifesto.html
file HERE and inscribing it.
We recommend running your own bitcoin node, Along with running ord to inscribe from your own node.
If you need help setting up your node don't hesitate to reach out on our discord as well as getting help from the official ordianals discord.
You should get at least a 1tb ssd
to run your Bitcoin node because the blockchain with the ord index is about 600gb.
Again you should run your own node
However if you want to inscribe while you are getting your node setup or the hardware is too expensive you can use a inscribing service like
https://looksordinal.com/ to inscribe your manifesto html
file.
Your goal should be inscribing from your own node.
This html file uses recursion to bring in the styles and the javascript. This makes the file very small to inscribe. The script also uses recursion to load the text of the manifesto and renders it in javascript. The text uses the recursive blockheight endpoint to change the color of the text each time a block is mined.

Check if your manifesto inscription is valid by running the validate_manifesto.js
using your inscriptionId
as an argument.
> node validate_manifesto.js <inscription_ID>
You can run this in a codespace. If you don't already have a github account you can create one and get a free codespace to run the script and submit your inscriptionId in a pull request. Once you verify your inscription make a PR with your inscription Id by adding it to the collection.json
file.
Make a new unique branch-name for example add-new-inscription
:
> git checkout -b add-new-inscription
add your inscriptionId
to the collection.json
file. Put it at the top.
{"inscriptionId": "8cb9a7f93677cc17a9f15acdd36ff368bf4efbf9cba6b77922c401f137e38025i0"},
Save and close the file when you're done.
Make sure that you don't change the structure of the json
file. It should look like this:
[
{"inscriptionId": "<InscriptionId-1>"},
{"inscriptionId": "<InscriptionId-2>"},
{"inscriptionId": "<InscriptionId-3>"}
]
The last entry should not have a comma at the end. You also need to make sure the [
and ]
are at the beginning and end of the file respectively each on their own line. If you don't do this, the file will be invalid and your pull request will need to be updated.

{"inscriptionId": "<Other InscriptionId>"},
{"inscriptionId": "<Other InscriptionId>"}

{"inscriptionId": "<Other InscriptionId-1>"},
{"inscriptionId": "<Other InscriptionId-2>"},
<<<<<<< your-branch-name
{"inscriptionId": "<Your InscriptionId>"},
=======
{"inscriptionId": "<Other InscriptionId-3>"},
{"inscriptionId": "<Other InscriptionId-4>"},
{"inscriptionId": "<Other InscriptionId-5>"}
