Editor’s Note:
As can be seen in this white paper reviewed by Super Testnet and Sam Parker, BitVM is a new computing paradigm designed by Robin Linus at Zero Sync, which combines Optimistic Roll Up, Fraud Proof, Taproot Leaf and Bitcoin Script.
BitVM allows the expression of Turing-complete Bitcoin contracts without changing the consensus rules of the Bitcoin network. It can execute any computable function and perform offline calculations without leaving any traces on the chain. The white paper also introduces BitVM's architecture, input and output, limitations and prospects.
The white paper received 110,000 views in just one hour after it was released, and as of the time of writing, it has reached 1.82 million views. Discussions in the English community were extremely heated, and it has become one of the biggest hot topics in the crypto community in recent times. KOL @LeonidasNFT believed that this was an exciting innovation, so he engraved the BitVM paper on the Bitcoin inscription, making it exist forever in a more native way.
