🧡Ordinals: Structure & Standards
As Ordinals gains adoption and scales, the need for a robust and decentralized consensus mechanism and general standardization becomes crucial. The solutions proposed in this gitbook aim not only to address the existing challenges but also to ignite broader discussion within the community to guide the protocol's future growth trajectory.
I broke up this document into three parts.
First, I go over potential consensus mechanisms that could be implemented on Ordinals and the ramifications for each potential path.
Second, I define a process heavily inspired by Bitcoin's process for the start to standardization in the ecosystem.
Last, I show an example of what OIP-001 could look like if the standardization process was adopted by Ordinals.
