Tatiana & Ordinals

Welcome to over a decade in Bitcoin.

 
My album Keep the Faith has carried a message that has sustained me through many years of activism across the globe. It has been a wild ride, and I was always driven by a love of freedom and a pursuit of peace through whatever medium I could.
 
In 2026, we have a new era of music on Bitcoin, combining both Counterparty and Ordinals in a way that honors the audio achieved through hard work in the studio and in my life. Eleven full tracks. Each at the 4MB Bitcoin block ceiling. Opus audio with embedded artwork and full music-industry metadata. The highest-fidelity full-length album on the Bitcoin blockchain.
 
I hope you enjoy it and it lifts your heart in times of trouble.
 
Love, Tatiana

Fourteen Years on Bitcoin

  • August 2012: First paid Bitcoin engagement at the Paul Festival in Tampa, sponsored by BitPay. Tony Gallippi introduced me to Bitcoin. Bitcoin became the through-line of my career from that point forward.

  • December 8, 2013: Wrote and performed the Bitcoin Jingle live at the Latin American Bitcoin Conference in Buenos Aires. One of the first original songs ever written about Bitcoin.

  • June 4, 2014: TATIANACOIN minted on Counterparty at block 304,102. The first artist coin ever issued on any blockchain.

  • 2014 to 2017: TATIANACOIN proceeds funded the recording of Keep the Faith. Additional album and fan tokens minted on Counterparty through 2017.

  • March 2017: Keep the Faith released. Every musician on the album was paid in Bitcoin.

  • 2026: Keep the Faith inscribed on Bitcoin. Eleven tracks, 4MB each, Opus audio, dual-issued on Ordinals and Counterparty.

Keep the Faith was written as an uplifting declaration to freedom, peace, and liberty without compromise.

 
The songs were written while I toured hundreds of Bitcoin events around the world. Heartbreak, growing pains, reflection, and a steadfast belief that peace is possible in our lifetimes, especially with the power of decentralization. The album includes “The Bitcoin Jingle” and “The Silk Road,” alongside songs documenting that era of the movement and the people who lived it.
 
This is the album, fully on chain. Eleven tracks. Each one a complete piece of music, permanently written into the oldest and most secure blockchain in existence.

An Uplifting Declaration to Freedom

Keep the Faith is as sincere as it is earnest. It reflects a time where it was hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel – and coming out stronger and wiser on the other side. You’ll hear heartbreak, growing pains, and reflection, all while on a quest for justice. Most of all, there is a steadfast belief that peace is possible in our lifetimes, especially with the power of decentralization.

TATIANACOIN

The first artist coin ever issued on any blockchain. Counterparty. Total supply 3,000,000.

 
The logo was designed by Martin Holland (@oureverydayearth). The first physical prototype was 3D-printed in 2014 by Steve Dakh, creator of KryptoKit. Early metal prototypes followed in February 2017, leading to the final brass run of 100 individually serialized coins later that year.
 
TATIANACOIN proved a thesis: an artist can fund her work without gatekeepers, without a label, without permission from anyone. The proceeds went into Keep the Faith.

THE ART TRIFECTA

Three people. Three mediums. One image.

 
Judd Weiss, a prominent photographer in the libertarian movement, photographed me performing live. That photograph was sent to Ross Ulbricht, founder of Silk Road. He drew the pencil sketch by hand and sent it to me as a birthday gift while serving a life sentence in federal prison. I chose his sketch as the album cover.
 
Ross was pardoned in January 2025 after over a decade incarcerated. The artwork, the letters, and the music that came from that friendship are no longer just artifacts of activism. They are artifacts of a story that ended differently than anyone expected.

THE STATEMENT THE ALBUM MAKES

Artist coins. No gatekeepers. No permission needed.

 
The Silk Road song and the album cover were deliberate choices. I took a contentious position because I believed it was right, not because anyone approved it.
 
If I had been signed to a label, they would have decided what I could say and who I could support. I was not signed to a label. I had an artist coin.
 
That is the whole point. Artistic integrity depends on not needing anyone’s permission.

THE TECHNOLOGY

How the music lives on chain.

 
Opus delivers dramatically higher fidelity than MP3 at a fraction of the size. Each track is inscribed at the 4MB Bitcoin block ceiling with full music-industry metadata: songwriters, musicians, liner notes, credits. The standard used by professional studios, honored on chain.
 
Apple devices do not natively support Opus playback. When my team submitted a pull request to the official Ordinals explorer to enable it, creator Casey Rodarmor passed on it. So we built our own. Michael Evans wrote the Opus inscription files and solved the Apple playback problem. He and Nathan Bragg co-built Ordinals.Gallery, surfacing the detail a proper release deserves.
 
The album streams live from Bitcoin. Not a recording from a speaker. Music read in real time from on-chain inscriptions.
 
This part matters to me personally. I am a Berklee graduate. Before Bitcoin, I spent a decade at legendary New York studios including Avatar, Chung King, Premier, and Quad, working as a manager, recording there, and producing events. The engineers and music professionals I worked alongside set the bar. The blockchain version had to meet it.
