Orange has become synonymous with Bitcoin – from its branding (the orange ₿ logo signifying innovation and freedom) to its community slang (“orange-pilling” into financial sovereignty). The Ordinals movement carries this torch forward, using orange as a visual badge of unity that links Bitcoin-native NFTs back to Bitcoin’s identity and philosophy. Out of more than 85 million inscriptions permanently inscribed on the Bitcoin motherchain, the Ordinals Shroom is outstanding and unique. It is part of the first Ordinals collection ever created ("The Shrooms r comming”), the 43rd inscription on Bitcoin. It is likely the most significant piece of the first “Proto-Shrooms” as it encapsulates Bitcoin and Ordinals ethos, by having the representative Orange color and the “O” initial proudly featured.”

Shroomtoshi on the Shrooms. “The BitcoinShrooms collection is a pixelated recap of the first 13 years of Bitcoin, a homage to the 8-bit style of art that expresses a slight nostalgia for the 90s, a way to soil 10s of thousands of SSDs spread across the world with my art (->next level cyber-vandalism), a tool to raise awareness about Bitcoin and what I personally view as its core principles, an ironic way to vent at what I see as its annoying pop elements and aberrations. it is a thank you to those I worked with and learned from, to those who are not around anymore but whose name should not be forgotten. it is knowledge condensed and a journey for the curious.” Source [https://www.ord.io/29753482]
