Cardano Founder Says Bitcoin Ordinals Should Migrate to Cardano

Cardano founder backs Bitcoin Ordinals as he presents Cardano as the ideal ecosystem for housing the recently-introduced NFT project.

In a recent YouTube Ask Me Anything (AMA) session, Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, waded into the ongoing discussions surrounding Bitcoin Ordinals, a recent innovation on the Bitcoin blockchain.

Hoskinson expressed his belief that the Cardano ecosystem would be a more suitable home for Bitcoin Ordinals, emphasizing the network’s superior infrastructure and capabilities. He further highlighted Cardano’s robust ecosystem as a compelling advantage for hosting Bitcoin Ordinals. 

“Thoughts on Ordinals? Outside of them lifting something from Math, they should migrate to Cardano. We have a much better ecosystem,” the IOHK Chief declared.

With its advanced technological framework and focus on scalability, Hoskinson believes Cardano offers a more comprehensive solution for accommodating the expanded data requirements of Bitcoin Ordinals. 

How Bitcoin Ordinals Work

Bitcoin Ordinals is a novel system that enables the inscription of unique labels and additional data onto individual satoshis, the smallest units of Bitcoin (BTC). They are non-fungible tokens (NFTs) stored on the Bitcoin blockchain, created by inscribing digital content, such as images, videos, or text, into the smallest denomination of BTC. 

This process allows for the tracking and differentiation of each satoshi as it circulates within the digital space. Unlike conventional transactions, Bitcoin Ordinals can contain various types of data, from text and images to encoded messages, all directly embedded within the Bitcoin blockchain.

This allows for greater flexibility regarding the information attached to Bitcoin transactions, surpassing the limitations of conventional links. While Bitcoin Ordinals has multiple unique offerings, its constraint lies in the size limit of the added information. 

As reported by The Crypto Basic in February, the introduction of Ordinals led to a massive congestion on the Bitcoin blockchain, leading to the mining of an unconventional block of size 4MB. Several proponents have argued against the Ordinals project, stressing that it takes up useful blockspace and results in higher fees.

Ultimately, Hoskinson’s proposal to integrate Bitcoin Ordinals into Cardano’s ecosystem echoes a commitment to advancing the development of blockchain technology. With Cardano’s reputation for innovation and scalability, his endorsement carries significant weight within the crypto community.
