Whenever you browse through a collection of *fx(hash)* OGs, you’re bound to find quite a bunch of [rudxane’s](https://twitter.com/rudxane1) *BINGOs*. This was not due to the small number of art projects on *fx(hash)* at that time or the low mint price: *rudxane* released his genesis project *BINGO* on November 10, 2021 for only 0.25 tez. The accumulation of “*BINGO*” in *fx(hash)* OG accounts occurred because the probability of an iteration with the most desired feature “negative-true” was set at 10%. Thus, minting a “negative *BINGO*” has quickly become the most popular game of the early *fx(hash*) community, creating a lot of fun in the discord. Having this little bit of historical context only adds to the appeal of the art project, which is already intriguing by itself.

*BINGO* is designed, as described by the artist, “as a series of random generated “bingo” cards, language unknown”.

A viewer may associate different images and languages when looking at these futuristic BINGO cards. Longtime *BINGO* has been overlooked and only  has been given more attention with *rudxane’s* release of [*Tych*](https://www.fxhash.xyz/generative/2675), another very successful generative art project with related concept and aesthetics. Both art projects share *rudxane’s* unique artistic signature and raise hopes for further intriguing artwork to come.

Today, at its first anniversary, *BINGO* has one of the lowest ratios of secondary market listings relative to collection size. To me, this metric signals collectors are holding tightly to *rudxane's* *fx(hash)* genesis and value its place as one of the platform’s first projects.&#x20;

Is it a game, an indecipherable readout, or a story from rudxane’s vast and intriguing world of generative art? One never knows what these encrypted messages might say. Maybe one day *rudxane* will share with us their secret.

I originally published this article on Medium, December 14, 2021. During that time, the floor price was below 5 tez, so I released my spotlight on BINGO under the title "fx(hash) undercurrents". For today's BINGO first anniversary, I'm bringing this article "home" to fx(hash). I hope you enjoy reading it.
