🚨 Bitcoin is much more than just a peer-to-peer electronic cash system. ⛓️‍💥 Ordinals have quietly turned Bitcoin into a data + token layer Blockchain. 💥📣 NEW JBBA RESEARCH ALERT: ✅ Bitcoin is more than money: Ordinals inscriptions let users store text, images, code and tokens directly on the base layer – not just move BTC around. ✅ 1 in 3 transactions are inscriptions: Inscriptions now account for about a third of all Bitcoin transactions. Crucially, “normal” payments didn’t collapse – they stayed broadly stable while total on-chain activity grew. ✅ BRC-20 has taken over: Roughly 4 out of 5 inscriptions are BRC-20-style fungible tokens, with text and images making up most of the rest. ✅ Ordinals are driving Taproot adoption: There’s a tight link between inscription activity and Taproot usage – suggesting Ordinals are one of the main real-world drivers of this upgrade. ✅ Blockspace is busier than ever: Inscriptions used around a quarter of total blockspace in the sample and contributed to the longest sustained period of “full blocks” in Bitcoin’s history, pushing average block size up by almost 50% vs. the pre-Ordinals era. ✅ Fees and miner revenue are up: Even though inscriptions pay slightly lower fees per byte on average, they still contributed about a fifth of all fees – and their demand for blockspace pushed fees for “normal” transactions higher too. That matters for Bitcoin’s long-term security budget. ✅ It’s not just about the BTC price: Short-term price moves explain little of inscription activity. Waves of new inscriptions line up more with technical innovation (e.g. BRC-20) than with classic bull/bear cycles. 🚀 This ground-breaking research from Alexander Wiedenmann and Andre Guettler of Ulm University and IWH – Halle Institute for Economic Research – Member of the Leibniz Association explores Bitcoin’s Ordinals and Inscriptions, and BTC's evolving Network state. 📖 Full paper has been published Open Access in The Journal of the British Blockchain Association (#JBBA): 🔗 Read the paper here:
