🧱 NEW MODULE #30: GPU-BVM 🧱

- Bitcoin L2s now have parallel processing capabilities
- Works with @NVIDIA GPUs
- Solidity smart contracts to make CUDA calls
- Fully on-chain AI as the first use case

Let's walk through the design & code 🧵👇 1) Parallelization is important for scaling blockchain.

The motivation for adding GPU to EVM came up while we were working with the @CryptoEternalAI team.

They were running AI models onchain & ran into issues with slow computation. BVM inherits EVM, so it's CPU-bound.

Runes launches in 24h, and so does RuneChain — a fast, cheap & community-owned Bitcoin L2 designed for Runes.

RuneChain

- The easiest way to etch runes
- The easiest way to mint runes
- The easiest way to trade runes



👀👇runechain.com 1. The easiest way to etch your own runes

Runes come into existence by being etched. Etching creates a rune and sets its properties. Once set, these properties are immutable, even to its etcher.

Enter a few things: name, symbol, and premine. Then press ETCH.

It's that easy!

Bitcoin File System (BFS)
An On-Chain File System

- Files securely stored on Bitcoin
- 100% uptime
- Unlimited file size
- Lower cost w/ compression
- Composability w/ smart contracts

Files are key for organizing information.

But there is a big difference between files and a file system.  Without a file system, it is a mess.

Imagine a room with piles of papers all over the place.

Or look at your desktop.

Or browse the Ordinals explorer.

👇🧵 1) In March, I was searching for a new art concept to work on.

We already released an on-chain living art collection on Bitcoin (Timechain).

We were finishing an on-chain AI collection on Bitcoin (Perceptrons).

Found @______jpg______ canons. I thought conceptual art was cool.

We deployed @Uniswap smart contracts on @Bitcoin this week.

→ trustless.market

Now you can:

✅ Swap Smart BRC-20 tokens
✅ Provide liquidity & earn a 2% fee
✅ Issue your Smart BRC-20

How is it going after 3 days?

* $500K trade volume
* 2K trades
* 500 users

👇🧵 1) Swap Smart BRC-20 tokens.

It's simple to swap Smart BRC-20 tokens on @Bitcoin. Just fill out a simple form.

Based on @Uniswap, Trustless Market is an automated market maker (AMM) protocol that relies on a series of smart contracts on top of Bitcoin.

‍💻 A code walkthrough of Generative Wallet ‍💻

Generative Wallet (generative.xyz/wallet) is built on top of @MetaMask for anyone to manage their Ordinal Inscriptions directly from their MetaMask.

This is a walkthrough for those interested in the code & cryptography behind it The key design point is to reuse MetaMask entirely and extend it by deriving your Ordinal address from your Ethereum address.

So users can manage their inscriptions directly from MetaMask.

No new wallet download is needed. No new passphrase. No new learning curve.

Yo @rodarmor. A new wallet for Ordinal Inscriptions (generative.xyz/wallet) is here.

* Trusted by over 30 million users worldwide
* Battle-tested since 2016
* Works with hardware wallets @Ledger @Trezor etc
* Super user-friendly & dev-friendly too

Huh? Exactly. Read on 🧵👇 1) Meet Generative Wallet, the “MetaMask of Bitcoin.”

* Built on @MetaMask
* Inherit all the benefits MetaMask brings to users
* Beautiful gallery view to display all your inscriptions
* 100% open-source

Finally, this is a wallet for Ordinals that my mom can use.
