According to Odaily, the reputation of the Bitcoin chain as the main network supporting digital gold may change as efforts to add new features through software upgrade codes continue. Udi Wertheimer, CEO of Taproot Wizards and a supporter of OP_CAT, stated in an interview that, in fact, you can execute smart contracts on the Bitcoin chain that are very similar to those on other chains. Bitcoin can become more powerful. It's time to discuss actual technical upgrades.
The OP_CAT feature was proposed by Ethan Heilman and Armin Sabouri in October and recently launched on the Bitcoin test network Signet. It was assigned the BIP-420 number, indicating that the ecosystem is seriously considering upgrading it. Many well-known figures in the crypto industry, such as Anatoly Yakovenko, co-founder of Solana Labs, have added 'BIP-420' to their usernames on platform X.
In February, Taproot Wizards launched the Quantum Cats Ordinals series to promote OP_CAT. In April, Taproot Wizards published a white paper outlining the framework for building applications using OP_CAT.
