# Introduction

CIAS is the first inscription on [Celestia](https://celestia.org/) chain. It aims to grow the Celestia ecosystem by onboarding individual users with the use case of inscriptions. It can help diversify the assets on the blockchain and build a disruptive user experience by leveraging the modular data availability network.

It is not only the rising star Celestia chain that gives CIAS its great value, but also the unique experience of CIAS from its birth to its development. CIAS, demonstrates the spirit of blockchain, the spirit of inscription: decentralization and permissionlessness.


# Past

CIAS was born on Dec 17th, 2023. A few hours before the start of inscribing(minting), users noticed that the inscription protocol and source code on the official website were copied from the inscription COSS on another Cosmos chain (ATOM), and a screenshot was posted on twitter.

# Indexer Failure

After minting, the official team opened the transfer function without confirming that the indexer was working correctly, and some users made OTC transactions. And then it was discovered that the account balance was modified by the indexer and was modified multiple times.

Also, the official team has so far been withholding all mint and transfer transaction hash data in order to cover up the indexer issue.


# Present

Users' inscriptions are permanently engraved on the blockchain and won't disappear because of official team‘s failures. What needs to be done is to make a new indexer in a timely manner and get a consensus from the community to get the new indexer working.


# New Indexer

CIAS's plagiarized target, the creator of the CRC-20 protocol, the inscription trading platform on Cosmos, the COSS Market, provided the correct indexer for CIAS, and saved all CIAS holders. The new indexer was recognized by more than two-thirds of CIAS holders, achieved community consensus. And over 60% of all holders [voted](https://coss.ink/i/cias/community/proposals) to adopt a new community governance code.


# Convert to Token

In order to ensure that users' balances on the new indexer are no longer affected by the official wrong indexer, all CIAS owned by wallets that have interacted with COSS Market (new indexer) are converted 1:1 to CRC-20 inscriptions and then to tokens on [COSS chain](https://github.com/coss-inscription/coss). This will open the door for future CIAS listings on CEXs, and participations in the Cosmos ecosystem.


# Future

CIAS has become an inscription without its official team.&#x20;

Currently 70% token is in circulation. For the rest 30%, 10% for promotion, 10% for technology and product development, 10% for ecosystem building, all are subject to community‘s approval.

CIAS, the first inscription whose official team failed and be replaced by the community, should always be remembered.
