Immortal Music. Immutable Assets. One-of-a-kind on Bitcoin.
We have engraved Ludwig van Beethoven's masterworks as high-fidelity MIDI on the Bitcoin blockchain, creating permanent, verifiable cultural assets that combine rigorous archival fidelity with a clear ownership model for collectors and institutions.
Each MIDI in the Beethoven collection is derived from critical-score editions and archival sources curated by our musicologists. Primary references include the Breitkopf & Härtel collected works, Ludwig van Beethoven's sketchbooks, and authoritative Urtext sources.
Breitkopf & Härtel collected works, Urtext sources, and original sketchbooks with timestamped editorial pedigree.
Bitcoin mainnet transactions with immutable records: inscription date (UTC), transaction ID, block height, and confirmation count.
Compositional intent prioritized: voice allocation, dynamics, articulations, tempo markings, and editorial annotations preserved.
Complete documentation: source citation, transcription author, version number, peer review comments, final approval timestamp.
Wallet-anchored ownership: the satoshi carrying the inscription determines provenance. Transfers occur on-chain via Bitcoin transactions.
SHA‑256 hashing embedded in inscription metadata with regular integrity scans across geographically distributed nodes.
Individual voices, instrument assignments, and measure boundaries encoded. Track separation mirrors score staves—melody, inner voices, bass—for full architectural reconstruction.
High-resolution tick timing with explicit tempo maps. Expressive rubato and tempo fluctuations preserved as annotated tempo curves with time-stamped events.
Continuous control data: velocity lanes, crescendo/decrescendo automation. Notational markings (pp–ff, sforzando) translated into MIDI CC events and meta annotations.
On-chain provenance manifest: editor credentials, source editions, editorial notes, checksum fingerprints—all inscribed alongside MIDI data.
Each MIDI inscription is bound to a single satoshi. Control of that satoshi equals provenance—your wallet holds the verifiable record of ownership recorded immutably on Bitcoin.
Every inscription is publicly discoverable and auditable. Proprietary rights and collector status attach to the wallet controlling the inscribed satoshi, not to the public copy.
All inscribed MIDI files are downloadable in lossless, archival-ready form. No DRM, no vendor lock: export, archive, and render using any compliant software or hardware.
Transfers occur as on-chain Bitcoin transactions with real-time guidance on UTXO selection and recommended fee ranges. Transfers are final once confirmed on-chain.
Tamper-proof provenance trail with signed metadata packet for institutional appraisal and due diligence.
Multisig wallets, cold-storage workflows, and trustee services for compliance and stewardship.
Inscribed MIDIs represent on-chain cultural artifacts. Public listening and academic use encouraged; ownership conveys custodial provenance but does not inherently transfer performance or mechanical rights beyond public-domain compositions.
Bitcoin's immutability and Bithoven's editorial rigor create a reliable asset layer. Transparent metadata, verifiable inscriptions, and standardized transfer mechanics reduce counterparty risk.
A curated arc from Beethoven's boldness to a complete, on-chain musical canon—each release paired with rigorous provenance and collectible ownership mechanics.
Final symphonies, piano sonatas, and string quartets as high-fidelity MIDI engravings with critical-score verification.
Well-Tempered Clavier with contrapuntal tagging and Baroque performance practice notes.
Piano concertos, symphonies, and operatic overtures with dynamic/articulation annotations.
Impressionist tone poems with timbral mapping guidance and composer-intent notes for pedaling and tone color.
Symphonies with contextual metadata documenting historical performance conditions.
Curated works from diverse traditions—non-Western masters, contemporary voices, and hybrid scores.
Explore the inaugural Beethoven inscriptions with immutable metadata and provenance stamps—designed for collectors, scholars, and institutional review.
For institutional and private academic investors, Bithoven offers a defensible position at the intersection of cultural capital and cryptographic scarcity.
Every Beethoven MIDI includes a verifiable provenance packet: source score references, engraving notes, timestamped audit hashes, and Ordinal inscription index.
Traditional digital archives face obsolescence and centralized failure. Bithoven leverages Bitcoin's settlement finality and network resiliency to mitigate systemic risks.
For institutional custody, we support multi-sig wallet structures, time-locked bequests, and compliance-ready transfer records.
Valuation blends compositional rarity, inscription provenance, musical fidelity, and market provenance.
Our curatorial board comprises musicologists, cryptographers, and conservators overseeing selection and fidelity standards.
Our inaugural Beethoven inscriptions illustrate how scholarly rigor and cryptographic permanence coexist as investable attributes.
