🪙💎♣️♦️Altcoins and NFTs on Bitcoin blockchain and Lightning with Taro

(1/2) > >>

As you may have heard. Taro Protocol was recently released to Bitcoin Testnet. This protocol will allow for alt-coins on BTC blockchain as well as Lightning. It will also allow for NFTs that don't take tons of space like ordinals.

Here is a wallet for this protocol here
https://testnet.tarowallet.net/

If you are already running a taro node / tarod you can use it to test your node. If you just want to play and learn you can mint your own Taro Assets as well as send them and deposit them.

There are multiple alt coin and NFT faucets available as well:
https://testnet.tarowallet.net/walletapp/faucet/?currency=4
https://testnet.tarowallet.net/walletapp/faucet/?currency=nft

Here is the Tarod repo for those that want to contribute to the project:
https://github.com/lightninglabs/taro
It is now being developed by Lightning labs.

n0nce:
We've had a thread about it since last year.

But it's good to know it was released on Testnet. I had the impression that it was active already, to be honest.
The alternative / 'original' actually (RGB) is active on Testnet for a long time now, just want to mention it since LL likes to make a big fuss about their stuff, when something very similar already exists (like with LND and CLN).

Was it developed by someone else before?

illusive_moose:
Thanks for pointing me to the thread.

Taro was active for a few weeks. I think over the past 1 month it really become useful with now errors.

Yes LL like to make tuns of press releases, I kind of like it though as they seem to be building a solid community around it.

As for RGB, I have heard about the protocol. I last checked their progress about 6 months ago. Will have to leek what progress they made.

digaran:
There are some grammar mistakes on your wallet site, e.g. Taro "fausets" "facets". Were you in a rush to release this?

How can I make a NFT out of my avatar?

Oh noes, please stay away from Bitcoin with this shitcoin/NFT mumbo-jumbo! Ethereum is a perfect blockchain for such a purpose, don't you think so? What are the advantages of using Taro for the common Bitcoin users apart from ability to send scam images with pseudo value back and forth?  ;D
