About Blockchains
About Bitcoin
Bitcoin stands as a leading cryptocurrency and payment network, utilizing peer-to-peer technology to operate without central authorities. It embraces global participation as an open-source platform. A notable advancement in Bitcoin is the introduction of ordinals and inscriptions. Launched in January 2023, the Bitcoin ordinals protocol enables the embedding of digital content like art, text, or video directly onto the Bitcoin blockchain. This innovation allows for the creation of exclusive digital collectibles, giving each satoshi a unique identity and purpose, broadening Bitcoin's utility beyond its role as a store of value.
About Aurora
Aurora is a Virtual Chain built on NEAR. The first of many. It’s, at the same time, the sandbox and the proof of the robustness of the parent protocol. It’s a smart contract - probably the most complex that exists - that is also an Ethereum Virtual Machine, providing a turn-key solution for developers to operate their apps on an Ethereum-compatible, high-throughput, scalable and future-safe platform, with low transaction costs.
