## TL；DR
The process of numbering the Satoshi of the <a href="/price/bitcoin-btc" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">Bitcoin</a> and making each Satoshi unique by attaching additional information is called an in_script_ion;

People are full of expectations for the future development of the in_script_ions market, but whether it can continue to be popular still requires a big question mark;

What matters is not how long the in_script_ions on this track can be popular, but how long you believe it can still be popular.

## What is the Bitcoin In_script_ion
Firstly, let's understand why it is called an in_script_ion.

From the perspective of general science popularization, in_script_ions refer to words or patterns engraved on objects or buildings.

In ancient times, in_script_ions were usually used to commemorate or record important events, figures, or things. Similarly, in_script_ions can also refer to written records on ancient cultural relics or artworks, used to indicate their age, origin, or other important information, so in_script_ions often carry historical, cultural, and artistic significance.

Like gold in_script_ions, it refers to the text or patterns engraved on gold jewelry or items. Gold in_script_ions are often used to record and convey information. For example, some in_script_ions engraved on gold may include prayers to gods, love for loved ones, and records of historical events. So, gold in_script_ions often become important clues for understanding ancient culture and history.

So, the in_script_ion on Bitcoin as "digital gold" is easy to understand.

We know that Satoshi is the smallest unit of Bitcoin, which is 0.0000001 Bitcoins, meaning that one Bitcoin contains 100 million Satoshi.

And each satoshi is sorted through ordinal number theory, with different characteristics and unique numbering. This uniqueness was discovered by a software engineer named Casey Rodamor and felt like something could be done.

On January 21, 2023, software engineer Casey Rodarmor created a protocol called Ordinals on the Bitcoin main network. It is a system used to number the smallest unit of Bitcoin, Satoshi, in the order of mining and transfer. Therefore, the protocol is named Ordinals.

The Ordinals protocol assigns unique serial numbers to each satoshi and tracks them in transactions. Anyone can attach additional data through Ordinals, including text, images, videos, etc., which is determined by the permissionless nature of blockchain/Bitcoin.

Ordinals number the Satoshi of the Bitcoin and make each Satoshi unique by attaching additional information, a process known as in_script_ions. After engraving any numerical content on Satoshis with an in_script_ion, the NFT can be saved in a Bitcoin wallet or transferred through Bitcoin transactions, and Pandora's magic box is thus opened.

## What's the Use of Bitcoin In_script_ions?
Simply put, Bitcoin in_script_ions can reactivate the Bitcoin ecosystem.

For example, the cost market of blockspace can bring more income to miners. In the long run, this will become very important because as Bitcoin block rewards gradually approach zero, miners will have to rely on transaction costs to maintain network security.

Although there are not many truly mature applications in the current Bitcoin in_script_ion ecosystem, it has also brought great wealth effects. At present, applications are mainly divided into two categories, text-based and image-based in_script_ions.

Text based in_script_ions are used to create tokens, similar to the BRC-20 Token standard. This is a protocol for creating tokens on Bitcoin, similar to <a href="/price/ethereum-eth" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">Ethereum</a>'s ERC-20. People can create various tokens, such as Ordi, Rats, Sats, etc., which have become very popular in the market recently.

Then there are image based in_script_ions used to create NFTs, such as some digital artworks or collectibles. These NFTs can represent various themes, some are original, and some are imitations of NFTs on other blockchains.

The gameplay of PFP projects like BRC20 basically follows the mode of Ethereum PFP NFT projects. Many holders of highly popular projects use their NFTs as avatars on Twitter or social media accounts. Three well-known, popular, and affordable projects in the Bitcoin In_script_ion ecosystem, such as Bitcoin Frogs, Goosenals and Bitcoin Punks.

Since the birth of Bitcoin in_script_ions, 1.14 million image based NFTs have been created, surpassing the sum of other networks such as Ethereum. The market predicts that by 2025, the market value of Bitcoin In_script_ions will reach $5 billion.

The concept of in_script_ions has also given rise to some commercial services, such as browser extension wallets, allowing users to easily connect to trading platforms, send and receive Bitcoin or in_script_ions, and view different collections of in_script_ions. Some companies also offer in_script_ions as a service, such as Ordinalsbot and Unisat.

## How Long Can the Heat Continue
In_script_ions now undergo periodic heat changes, just like NFTs.

In this market, sometimes people are very interested in in_script_ions, and their popularity will be high; Sometimes, people may lose interest in it, and its popularity will decrease.

This kind of change is uncertain, just like the development of NFT in the past, many other projects may eventually fade away except for those leading projects.

Nowadays, there are more and more in_script_ions, and this field has become one of the areas with the strongest wealth effect. However, some analysts believe that the in_script_ions have reached their peak at this stage, and they are waiting for the next opportunity for price increases before selling them for profit.

Although overall, people are full of expectations for the future development of the in_script_ions market, whether it can continue to be popular still requires a big question mark. After all, the crypto space changes day by day, and the human world changes year by year. Many times, the market direction changes as the wind changes.

Nowadays, the Bitcoin In_script_ion has attracted most of the market's popularity, making users who are looking forward to a quick return seem to have seized the straw to save the people, causing groups of people to flock to it.
