BITCOIN RAILS #37: The Birth of BRC2.0: Bitcoin’s Programmable Asset Layer | with @bestinslotxyz CEO @0xBinari 🔗 YOUTUBE: youtu.be/aJlT9pELj6o 🌿 SPOTIFY: open.spotify.com/episode/5KX8BQ… Programmable BRC20 tokens, dubbed “BRC2.0,” launched a few short weeks ago after more than a year of building and anticipation. This effort was spearheaded by BRC20 lead-maintainer team @bestinslotxyz, who joined the BRC20 core team after their development of open source Ordinals indexer “OPI,” and solidifying their title as a leading Ordinals infrastructure provider. In this episode, I sat down with Best In Slot CEO @0xBinari to hear the birth story of “BRC2.0,” and learn how the ground was laid for programmable native assets on Bitcoin within a few short months of BRC20's launch in 2023. Having worked closely with this team and on this protocol via @L1Fxyz for almost two years now, this interview is particularly close to my heart. A must-watch for any Ordinals-historians out there, I can’t wait to hear your thoughts on this little-known history of BRC20, and the future of “BRC2.0.” Shouts out in this episode to @domodata @unisat_wallet @satsnames and other key figures in the development of Ordinals-based metaprotocols. In this episode, we cover: - How the idea of programmable BRC20 assets (and programmable native assets in general) was born shortly after the launch of BRC20 in late 2023 - Why Domo connected with the BestInSlot team early on in BRC20’s history, and advocated for their inclusion as core maintainers of the protocol next to marketplace @unisat_wallet - The truth about the BRC20 “indexer wars” and why “he who holds the users, holds the power” - Why Best In Slot refused millions in venture funding despite being one of the most highly valued companies in the Ordinals space over the last three years - How BRC2.0 will differentiate itself by focusing on institutional-grade financial use-cases... and not the low hanging fruit of meme coins. This episode is powered by: - Best In Slot (@bestinslotxyz), the leading API for Ordinals and BRC20 data aggregation and indexing - Spark (@lightspark), a statechains implementation leading the path towards institutional adoption of Bitcoin-powered payments - Citrea (@citrea_xyz), the leading Bitcoin Rollup technology and contributor to the BitVM alliance 📍 Timestamps 00:00 Intro 00:52 Bitcoin as a time machine & new way of thinking about time 02:32 Launching BRC 2.0 & building a minimum viable ecosystem 05:00 TLDR: What is BRC 2.0? 05:31 Ordinals & the return to Bitcoin building 08:00 First exposure to Ethereum at Burning Man 10:16 Indexing, NFTs, and DeFi vision for scale 11:57 India trip, Ordinals hype, and rediscovering Bitcoin 15:33 Canonical indexers & why they matter for protocols 21:03 Early BRC 20 experiments & hype cycle 40:02 BRC 2.0 mainnet launch 54:07 Future of Best in Slot & Bitcoin applications #ordinals #BRC20

Throughout 2025, @bestinslotxyz have proven the value of the maintainership model, and the work they’ve put in can’t be overstated. Excited to see how the community experiments with the new expressiveness and UX of the module. Worthless or not, test with care :)

@lashercorson Guess I’ve got the dog in me

Oh my! Kraken thought $DOG was actually $ORDI.

"BRC20, the simple yet historic token protocol on Bitcoin, is about to evolve into a full-fledged smart-contract ecosystem, with native Bitcoin settlement and security." - @bestinslotxyz Very excited to share that BRC2.0 (aka the "programmable module") is set to be released by the Best In Slot team at block 909,969 (~August 14th) For more information on BRC2.0, we hope you'll review the post below and connect with the Best In Slot team for future updates. Additionally, we hope you'll share your enthusiasm for this upgrade with your BRC20 infrastructure providers—coordinated support across wallets, exchanges, etc. will be essential to ensure a smooth rollout and to unlock the full potential of BRC2.0 programmability.

@bestinslotxyz great works sirs!

BITCOIN RAILS EPISODE #17: DOMO’S SIDE OF THE STORY & the HISTORY OF BRC20 A particularly special episode—@domodata sits down with me for his first video interview ever—to recount the unique history of the BRC20 protocol. The first Bitcoin-native token standard ever created, BRC20 came into existence almost overnight and quickly emerged as a multibillion dollar asset class in 2024. This episode covers the influences leading up to the birth of $ORDI, the roles of different players involved along the way, and how core maintainers are preparing for their next major update—affectionately dubbed “BRC 2.0” by Bitcoin educator @bobbodily Additionally, Domo shares his memory of key moments in BRC20 history—including: —the development of BRC20's canonical indexer and details of Domo's working relationship with @unisat_wallet —Ordi's listing on OKX and Binance (+ what he believes triggered listing decisions by those exchanges) —the creation of the Layer 1 Foundation and the responsibilities of its member organizations in maintaining the core protocol —why Domo has never accepted funding (including advisory fees) from either of his lead maintainer companies @unisat_wallet or @bestinslotxyz We also go into depth about what sparked the “BRC20 indexer wars” and how stakeholders are ensuring the integrity of its consensus going forward. This episode includes special mentions of major influences in the evolution of BRC20—including @redphone @robertjfclarke @Bitcoin_Punks_ @satsnames @bestinslot @unisat_wallet and others. This episode can be viewed on YouTube or Spotify using the linktree in Isabel’s bio—YouTube episode is also in the comments. As always, thanks to the show's sponsor @bestinslotxyz for making this episode possible— in addition to being a core maintainer of BRC20, Best In Slot maintains the leading API for Ordinals and BRC20 data aggregation and indexing.

BRC20 PROTOCOL UPDATE ▶️▶️ 1. The BRC2.0 Programmable Module, developed by the @bestinslotxyz team, will be available on Bitcoin Signet this Monday, March 31st. This upgrade introduces a virtual machine and Turing-complete functionality into the BRC20 canonical indexer—enabling BRC20 tokens to become programmable. Documentation and tooling will be available for developers interested in building DeFi and other applications with the BRC20 standard on Bitcoin L1, without relying on bridges, multi-sig schemes, L2s, or validator networks For more information about the BRC2.0 Programmable Module, follow the @bestinslotxyz team for updates and Q&A. 2. The @unisat_wallet team has developed three implementations for a BRC20 single-step transfer function—for three indexing service providers, including OKX, UniSat and OPI. The team intends to publish its implementation proposal by the end of this week. Additionally, UniSat will be facilitating testing of this function in various environments—including on the @fractal_bitcoin network. For updates on testing of the BRC20 single-step transfer function implementation—follow @unisat_wallet 3. As of today, the @unisat_wallet team is including two additional implementations of the BRC20 swap module on the @fractal_bitcoin network, after its initial implementation was introduced in September 2024. Over the next 2–4 weeks, these new implementations will be rigorously tested to ensure their stability and reliability—in preparation for activation on Bitcoin mainnet. For updates on the testing status of the BRC20 swap module upgrade —follow @unisat_wallet All teams involved with the development of BRC20 appreciate any and all feedback on code, docs, etc. as these updates are implemented. We're thrilled to push the BRC20 core protocol forward throughout 2025!
