Drop 002 of 100
Its price changes every few seconds, and nobody involved in making it decides what it costs.
Cigarettes 2 costs one one-thousandth of whatever Bitcoin is worth at the moment you check out. When Bitcoin sits at $63,600, the shirt is $63.60. When Bitcoin moves, the shirt moves with it, in both directions, all day and all night.
This turns a t-shirt into something you time rather than something you simply order. A bad morning for Bitcoin is a good morning to buy a shirt. A rally means you pay more for the same cotton.
It is the opposite mechanic to Drop 001, whose price can only rise and rewards whoever moves first. Drop 002 floats on a market that nobody in the project can influence, so paying less is a matter of watching rather than of hurrying.
Two hundred shirts are available. Ten more exist and were never for sale.

Thursday 20 August 2026, at noon Eastern. After that it stays open permanently until the run is gone, so there is no window to miss, only a price that keeps moving.
100 Cigarettes is an art project of exactly one hundred numbered drops, ending permanently after Drop 100. Each drop is priced by a rule that is part of the work. Ninety-six are still unrevealed.
One one-thousandth of the live Bitcoin price. If Bitcoin is at $63,600, the shirt is $63.60.
Thursday 20 August 2026 at noon Eastern. From that moment it stays buyable until the run sells out.
Two hundred are for sale. Two hundred and ten exist.
Trophy shirts that were never for sale. The five people who pay the least and the five who pay the most each earn one.
Yes. It follows Bitcoin in both directions, all day, which is the difference between this and Drop 001.
No. A code would override the rule, and the rule is the artwork. What you pay is decided by a market nobody here controls.
