Sub 1 sat/vB summer has concluded with the latest Bitcoin core stable release v29.1, lowering the default minimum relay (and RBF) fees to 0.1 sat/vB 🏖️ All 🧙🏽‍♂️ The Wizards of Ord ⚡️ apps should now support sub 1 sat/vb fees. v30.0 autumn is officially upon us 🍂

Our 🧙🏽‍♂️ The Wizards of Ord ⚡️ Inscriber now includes a preview step that shows all your selected options. ➔ inscribe.dev It's the most feature complete, technically superior inscriber out there. But too many options can feel overwhelming. So, this should help! GM ☀️

All BRC20 and Ordinals enjoyers should be consolidating useless UTXOs at @ sub 1 sat/vB tx.dev/build/transact… 1⃣ Add unwanted dust UTXOs as inputs 2⃣ Set fee rate to 0.5 sat/vB or lower 3⃣ Execute Change automatically goes to your payment address, minus service fees.

All bitcoin transactions are financial transactions

It hasn't been possible for developers to generate a PSBT and hand it to someone else for signing. Until now! ➔ psbt.io Perfect for shared transactions, multisig setups, or when you're receiving help from someone else with your Bitcoin transaction. GM ☀️

N-of-N MuSig2 public key 🔑 cb5ed9d8cdd45c0ceea17d0d2993890cf921f966dcc4c55b5f0ca108c1bedae4 Trust, but verify 👇 gist.github.com/lifofifoX/1e81… Can perform any radFi action as N+1-of-N+1 🐀 mempool.space/address/bc1p4u… 🔓

Really excited about this one, I've got a lot of ideas on how to incorporate this into future r&d around radFi. Bitcoin might not have smart contracts like Ethereum But it will certainly have its own version of DeFi 🟠

Good luck to trevor.btc and NinjaStrategy™ with the NinjaStrategy sale! I reached out to them re: how they plan to get participants' radFi addresses, and they confirmed they'll collect wallets after the sale ends. So, all good! This highlights one of the key challenges. Strategy

We can't have fair strategy launches with everyone trying to rush out half assed versions. We already have PoCs. Now we need scale. Scaling is trust minimized automated flows, using most/all BTC from the mint for LP/floor, and no team reserves for subsequent launches.

Thinking out loud. Strategy tokens right now seem to heavily favor asset holders. A simple protocol tweak could balance things. ➔ Spread the buys ➔ Protocol spends $N daily ➔ If $token < $X, buy/burn tokens with $N. Otherwise, buy assets. Thoughts?

Come to Bitcoin

Want to put arbitrary data on Bitcoin CashJr after the inevitable BIP 444 hard fork? Peter Todd with this banger, containing the entire text of the proposed BIP! mempool.space/tx/8e2ee13d2a1…

Done with a decade old script that doesn't even use segwit, let alone taproot. 100% standard and fully compatible with Luke Dashjr's BIP-444.

Luke, we need to drop OP_DROP Inscription spammers have neutralized our BIP 444 without even losing the witness discount 🤦‍♂️ mempool.space/tx/fcf2142e324… OP_DROP OP_DROP OP_DROP OP_DROP OP_DROP OP_DROP OP_DROP OP_DROP OP_DROP Goddamnit.

We might finally be getting structured attributes in the next ord release! Casey added a `title` in PR 4424. Presumably, more on the way. Both gallery items and inscriptions will have attributes. And galleries can finally replace off-chain collection JSON files.
