@ForgottenRunes Weekly Top 5, FEB 5-12, 2023
1. The @forgottenrunes team, in particular @dotta and @wagmiwiz, have been very visible in the booming Bitcoin ordinals space. Due to a lack of smart contracts, this involves inscribing images directly onto individual satoshis, the smallest unit of Bitcoin.

With their help, @ElfJTrul and @sweetbread_eth, among others, have already inscribed artworks into the first 10K serial ordinals.

As a FRWC holder, is there any action you need to take? No, but if you are interested, dotta has provided a guide on getting involved.

2. Speaking of ordinals, some of the prominent FRWC community projects have also gotten involved. @the_BlackSand mounts collection is now live to mint.

Among the Mounts collection are 1/1 mounts, which have already been inscribed as Ordinals as well, and the holder of the ETH token will also receive ownership of the Ordinal!

3. @ForgottenPunk has also gotten involved in the Ordinals scene, by inscribing several of the "clean" Punks.

The Forgotten Punks Ordinals will be available to "mint", and AL giveaways are in progress on a new Discord server opened specifically for the Ordinals collection.
The FPunks Ordinal discord is currently closed due to bots, but FPunks OG holders can DM @SorcererIlyas to get in.

4. I wanted to broadcast a PSA around Discord impersonators, because a community member recently fell victim to one of them, who was impersonating @wagmiwiz

Key messages (courtesy of @MagusDevon):
a. Nobody from MM is contacting individuals for interviews.
b. Never download any software/scripts people ask you to in DMs
c. Never share screen or allow remote access to anyone
d. Always make sure you're DMing the right person! Come back into the Discord server and right click their profile to enter their messages. It should take you to the same chat window!
e. When in doubt, feel free to publicly ping a trusted community member
5. New Twitter account alert + update about Wizard Wednesday recaps: please be sure to follow @FRWCPress

We hope this will make it easier for you all to see the latest recap, regardless of who is creating them - we invite interested collaborators to join us, since we will post other informational threads and features as well, over time.
BTW, this feature (Weekly Top 5) will also be published on Forgotten Runes Press going forward.
