📙 ORDINALS 101 kit 📙
Everyone keep talking about ordinals, so I am back :D to let you know everything and so you have your tools ready to get in.
What do you ned to start?
You just need:
● Bitcoin (you can send from Binance)
● An ordinal wallet (careful with the 2 type of addresses like taproot)! *
● Ordinal Marketplace**
● Mempool (to see status of your transactions)**
*Note 1: Legacy and Taproot addresess
It's crucial to highlight that when dealing with Bitcoin and Ordinals, understanding the distinction between legacy addresses and taproot addresses is key. Typically, the addresses you'll be utilizing for ordinal transactions fall under SegWit and/or Taproot (an example of their appearance is shown in the accompanying image). Being mindful is essential because using them incorrectly might result in the platforms interpreting your ordinals as regular sats, leading to potential loss of your digital artifacts.
You have 2 type of addresses (in this case, we are using XVERSE example):
1- Your BITCOIN address (where you send bitcoin to pay fees and buy ordinals)
2- Your ORDINALs address aka taproot (where you receive or from where you send your inscriptions). Starts with bc1

P.S. Unfortunately, I can't include links, but each of these projects has its dedicated X/Twitter account. Make sure to verify using the correct tag.
P.S.2. I've organized a handy ordinal library pin on my X/Twitter account, gathering various information with accompanying resources. The handle is identical to this one. Drop a greeting in the comments if you spot it from here! 😄
