# Bitmap Land On A Rare Sat

### People have been using Sating to inscribe .bitmap blocks on their valuable sats. Here is how they are doing it. 

Important things to know about Bitmap inscribing.

* A Bitmap block cannot be inscribed 'officially' until the block is added to the blockchain. If you are the first to inscribe 1000000.bitmap today, that does not mean you will be recognized as the Bitmap owner after block 1000000 happens.
* If multiple people attempt to inscribe the same block at the same time the one paying the highest fee is likely to be the one transacted first. For this reason you have to be prepared to pay more than a normal inscription fee.
* If you don't get the 'official' Bitmap block you will still receive an inscription, and it will still be on the valuable sat you chose... you will just will not be recognized by the Bitmap project as the owner.

**Step 1**. Select the rare sat in your wallet you want to inscribe on. You can visit the [Bitmap Marketplace](https://ordinalswallet.com/collection/bitmap) to see an updated list of different type of rare sats other people have used.

**Step 2.** Find the number of the next block to be added to the Bitcoin blockchain. You can do this at <https://mempool.space>. The last block in the screen shot below was 802015, so the next one with the yellow arrow will be 802016. <br>

**Step 3.** Using Sating's [Inscription Tool](/how-to-use-sating/single-sat-inscription.md), you will want to use a 'text' inscription on the valuable sat of your choice. It should simply say:

**802016.bitmap**          (of course, yours would have the current next number, not 802016)

**Step 4**. Choose your Fee. Back on Mempool.space, you can click on the yellow block that is about to be added to see the fees people have already agreed to pay on that block. You can see in the screen shot someone has already agreed to pay a very high fee of 446 for their next transaction. This could be the person you are competing against for the next Bitmap inscription, so you may decide to put your fee at 550 to give yourself the best chance to be first.

**Step 5.** Once you decide the fee you are going to use, plug it into Sating, click Submit and see what the cost will be. You may decide it is not worth it and wait for a less expensive fee on a future block. You don't want to lose this valuable sat.
