How To Create A Bitcoin Wallet Compatible With Ordinals To Get BTC NFTs

In 2021, Bitcoin underwent a significant upgrade with the implementation of Taproot. This allows for the deployment of smart contracts on the Bitcoin network. Since then, the upgrade has opened up new possibilities for using Bitcoin beyond its traditional function as a digital currency.

We now have the Ordinals protocol, the first use case for exploring the possibilities of Bitcoin beyond its traditional function. Users must have a wallet compatible with the Ordinals protocol and the Taproot upgrade to take advantage of this new functionality. With such a wallet, users can participate in creating and exchanging NFTs on the Bitcoin network. Here's how to create a Bitcoin wallet compatible with ordinals.
