Summary

Bitcoin is no longer just for payments, as ordinals have paved the way for NFTs on the Bitcoin blockchain. Ordinals give unique IDs to each mined sat, allowing for images and other data to be inscribed into them, thus creating an NFT that can be bought and sold.

What is an ordinal and how does it work on Bitcoin?

• The ordinal protocol gives each mined sat a unique ID.
• This ID allows for data like images to be inscribed into the sat, making it an NFT.
• All data is 100% on-chain, making Bitcoin a secure and decentralized database.
• The Taproot upgrade unlocked unlimited data storage on Bitcoin.
• However, storing data on Bitcoin comes with a higher cost due to the replication and decentralization across all full Bitcoin nodes.
• Ordinals are becoming increasingly popular, with high volume on their marketplace and big players like Yuga Labs, Bugatti, and d-gods from Solana participating.

Yuki Yuminaga, an analyst and expert in zero-knowledge computing, talks about zero-knowledge proof (ZKP), an emerging cryptographic primitive that allows proving the validity of certain information without disclosing it. ZKP can compress data and verify the validity of data, making it valuable in the crypto and non-crypto space.

What is ZKP and how does it work?

• ZKP is the application of polynomial functions to prove the validity of information.
• It allows verification of information that is not known, by extrapolating data with just a few points.
• ZKP compresses data and verifies the validity of data.
• ZKP roll-up projects are using ZKP in the form of ZK VM or ZEVM to focus on network scaling.
