Inscriptions hype continues to grow and this sector has already reached incredible sizes. These experimental data files were thought to be a temporary fad when they first appeared with the use of a protocol called Ordinals at the beginning of 2023. However, the use of Inscriptions has opened the doors to another process for the crypto market.

铭文炒作持续增长，这个行业已经达到了令人难以置信的规模。这些实验数据文件在 2023 年初首次使用名为 Ordinals 的协议出现时，被认为是一种暂时的时尚。然而，Inscriptions 的使用为加密市场的另一种流程打开了大门。

The Growing Allure of Inscriptions

铭文的魅力与日俱增

Despite being rejected by Bitcoin investors like Jimmy Song and condemned by long-time developer Luke Dashjr, the allure towards the Inscriptions industry is greater than ever. The total market size for Bitcoin Inscriptions tokens has reached $1.5 billion.

尽管遭到了吉米·宋（Jimmy Song）等比特币投资者的拒绝，并受到了长期开发者 Luke Dashjr 的谴责，但铭文行业的吸引力比以往任何时候都大。 Bitcoin Inscriptions 代币的总市场规模已达到 15 亿美元。

ORDI, the biggest of these projects, constitutes a large part of this valuation with a market cap of $1 billion. Following fundamental cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu, ORDI is the fourth-largest memecoin project. This week, a fund consisting of various crypto assets, including Ethereum, worth $106 million, has been invested in Bitcoin Cats, an as-yet-unreleased NFT game based on the Ordinals Inscriptions craze.

ORDI 是这些项目中最大的项目，占此估值的很大一部分，市值为 10 亿美元。 ORDI 是继狗狗币和柴犬等基础加密货币之后的第四大模因币项目。本周，一支由包括以太坊在内的各种加密资产组成的基金，价值 1.06 亿美元，投资于《比特币猫》，这是一款基于 Ordinals Inscriptions 热潮的尚未发布的 NFT 游戏。

This development further highlights the growing appetite among investors for this emerging crypto market. In May, many Bitcoin investors like Song claimed that the Ordinals Inscriptions craze would eventually run out. However, contrary to this belief, the opposite has continued to happen over the past seven months. The Bitcoin Cats fundraising event, which ended on December 19, received 150 times more demand from investors, demonstrating a strong appetite for high-risk crypto ventures.

这一发展进一步凸显了投资者对这个新兴加密货币市场日益增长的兴趣。今年五月，许多像宋这样的比特币投资者声称序数铭文热潮最终会消失。然而，与这一信念相反，过去七个月里，相反的情况不断发生。比特币猫筹款活动于 12 月 19 日结束，投资者的需求增加了 150 倍，显示出对高风险加密货币企业的强烈兴趣。

A Revolution in the Bitcoin Ecosystem

比特币生态系统的一场革命

Bitcoin Cats presentation to investors indicates that the game will provide access to an NFT collection for users. Investors will receive these NFTs in exchange for staking their share of the project’s native token, 1CAT. Inscriptions allow users to mimic Ethereum’s smart contract functionality on Bitcoin.

比特币猫向投资者的演示表明，该游戏将为用户提供 NFT 收藏的访问权限。投资者将获得这些 NFT，以换取他们在该项目的原生代币 1CAT 中的份额。铭文允许用户在比特币上模仿以太坊的智能合约功能。

This means that users can create data such as image and sound files in the Bitcoin ecosystem, similar to NFTs like Bored Apes and memecoin projects like Shiba Inu. This was nearly an impossible achievement until recently because Bitcoin’s blockchain software did not have native support for smart contracts necessary for creating NFTs and tokens.

这意味着用户可以在比特币生态系统中创建图像和声音文件等数据，类似于 Bored Apes 等 NFT 和 Shiba Inu 等 memecoin 项目。直到最近，这几乎是一项不可能实现的成就，因为比特币的区块链软件没有对创建 NFT 和代币所需的智能合约的原生支持。
