As the industry leader, Bitcoin is constantly emerging with innovations around it: Bitcoin Layer2 solutions, Ordinals protocol, BRC-20, Nostr protocol, etc. Today I will briefly talk about Ordinals.
The beginning of Ordinals: Bitcoin NFTs
The Ordinals protocol was released by Bitcoin Core contributor Casey Rodarmor to make NFTs possible on Bitcoin. The total amount of Bitcoin is 21 million, and its smallest unit is satoshi (satoshi), 1 BTC = 100 million sats.
The Ordinals protocol proposes an innovative design based on "Satoshi", allowing various information to be embedded in "Satoshi" - such as pictures, text, videos, etc. ("inscription", also called inscription), and the uploaded inscription and Specific "satoshi" are connected ("ordinal"), this process is called inscribe, and what is finally produced is a satoshi carrying the inscription, which is the so-called Bitcoin NFT.

Ordinals的BRC-20
@domodata proposed a Token standard on Bitcoin - the BRC-20 standard on the Ordinals protocol. BRC-20 utilizes Ordinalinscriptions of JSON data to deploy Token contracts, mint Tokens, and transfer Tokens. You can think of the BRC-20 standard as an application NFT of Ordinals, which is equivalent to a check. BRC-20 does not have smart contracts.
Within 24 hours of Brc-20’s release, over 30,000 Ordinalinscriptions were minted. @domodata also deployed BRC-20’s first Token, ordi, with a total of 21 million. Everyone can mint for free. In less than 2 days, ordi was minted by all.
