With two ordinals collections dropping real soon on BTC, here’s what you’ll need to know about Astro Ordinals.
In case you need a recap of what we’ve dished out so far on AstroChimpz and Astro Ordinals, scroll down past the Ordinals section.
The Ordinals Collections
To immerse yourself into the AstroChimpz world, you’ll need an AstroChimp from one of our collections. They’ll be your guide on a quest to the Awakening.
Each of the characters is built on the blueprint of a universal archetype and then shaped with personality traits, motivations, flaws, quirks and kryptonite.

About AstroChimpz
Making its Web3 debut, AstroChimpz will be among the first art & story-led IPs born on BTC. Created by seasoned art entrepreneurs Arjun Charanjiva & Jas Charanjiva with a team of established artists, AstroChimpz has a long-term vision.
The Vision
AstroChimpz is envisioned as a full blown Web3 brand, it brings together the physical and digital worlds of story-telling, comic book art and Web3 tech. As seasoned brand builders, our ultimate vision is to build AstroChimpz into a global media & entertainment brand. It sets the stage for epic community building, creative collaborations, puzzles, a quest and so much more!
The short-term vision is to bring our already completed AstroChimpz story and its cast of fully-realized multi-dimensional characters to life as toys, a comic series and AR. An animated feature is a part of the long-term vision being explored.
The Story
Told through multiple episodes, our webcomic story exploring the mysteries of the universe and the mind kicks off with Episode 1: Escape to Chimpzville.
Rewind to many, many years ago on Planet Earth. A group of extraordinarily intelligent chimps stumbled upon a mysterious rocket kit and visual assembly manual. They cracked it soon enough and set off into the unknown, landing on Planet Chimpzville. Now, as AstroChimpz, they have returned to our planet to rescue Earth chimps from ultimate doom - extinction. The story begins with Ambassador Handsome, intergalactic man of mystery descending upon the putt-putt course of autocratic President Pongo, ruler of Earth chimps, to cut a deal. Will the chimps make to Chimpzville? Stay tuned.
