NFTs on Bitcoin? Here you can read how that works!

In recent years, we have been inundated with NFTs in the form of funny pictures, collectible collections, and memes on the Ethereum network and other chains. However, they have never been natively found on the Bitcoin network before. Now that “NFTs” are also possible on Bitcoin, this has sparked much discussion, as the Bitcoin community is generally not known for being NFT enthusiasts.

What’s new?
There is a significant difference with the NFTs we’ve seen before. These Bitcoin NFTs (also referred to as digital artifacts) are fully stored on-chain, unlike NFTs on other smart contract blockchains. Typically, this image data is stored off-chain on IPFS for scalability reasons.

The advantage of Bitcoin NFTs is that they are therefore more decentralized and independent of external systems. The downside is that you cannot assign as many properties to them using smart contracts.

How does the technology work?
The creator of the Ordinals protocol, Casey Rodarmor, describes it on his blog as “a numeric namespace for Bitcoin.” Ordinals offer the possibility to make each Satoshi unique and trackable. You can add an inscription to such a Satoshi in the form of a jpeg, for example.

It’s a bit like engraving a 1 euro cent coin (perhaps with something of value) so that this 1 euro cent is unique and always traceable. While this is difficult with a physical coin, it is now possible with a Satoshi.
