What is sOrdinals?

sOrdinals enables the conversion of Ordinals into sOrdinals through the sBTC bridge, adapting the Ordinals concept to the Stacks blockchain. This protocol introduces an advanced inscription layer to the Stacks network, facilitating significant enhancements such as the Nakamoto and sBTC updates, expected to improve transaction speeds and reduce costs. The SIP-9 wrapper, added atop sOrdinals, opens up smart contract use cases by allowing additional logic building and protocol upgrades. This layer supports both the integration of assets from Bitcoin to Stacks and the reverse, enabling Stacks inscriptions to be represented on the Bitcoin network.

By utilizing smart contract function arguments for data storage, sOrdinals overcomes transaction memo field limitations, supports larger file storage, and enables batch inscriptions. The protocol is designed to be expandable and upgradable, with potential future enhancements including the development of a virtual machine to improve smart contract execution and support for multiple programming languages.
