Launching & Funding

Launching turns your campaign into a batch — a priced, ready-to-inscribe unit of work. Funding it is the only on-chain action you take yourself; everything after that is automatic.

Launch

When the dry-run plan looks right, launch the campaign (pick your fee tier at launch time). Skrybit creates a batch and returns two things:

  • a payment address — a fresh Bitcoin address dedicated to this batch;
  • the total required — the exact amount in sats that funds the whole batch: network fees for every commit/reveal transaction, postage, and the platform service fee.

Nothing has touched the chain yet. The batch waits for funding.

Fund it — “Pay with UniSat”

You fund the batch from your own wallet. In the console, the batch funding row shows the network, the payment address, and the exact amount, next to a Pay with UniSat button:

  1. Click Pay with UniSat.
  2. The UniSat extension switches to the campaign’s network and opens its confirmation popup — showing the destination address and amount, signed from the wallet you choose in the popup.
  3. Confirm. The extension broadcasts the payment and the console records the transaction id.

Prefer another wallet, an exchange withdrawal, or a treasury multisig? Send the exact amount to the payment address from anywhere — the button is a convenience, not a requirement. Skrybit watches the address either way.

What you are (and are not) signing

The payment is funding, not inscribing. Your wallet signs one ordinary Bitcoin send to the payment address. Skrybit’s engine then signs and broadcasts the actual inscription transactions, paid for out of your funding. Your keys never touch the inscription transactions, and Skrybit’s keys never touch your wallet.

Two practical notes:

  • Send the exact amount. The batch is priced precisely; the engine starts when the required amount is confirmed at the payment address.
  • No wallet registration required. Any wallet can fund a batch — paying never requires registering the address with Skrybit (see Wallets & Accounts).

After the payment confirms

The engine takes over within seconds of the funding confirmation — in the July 30, 2026 mainnet run, the first inscription transaction was broadcast 2 seconds after the payment confirmed. Follow along on the next page: Delivery Tracking.
