IPInscription
Technical architecture

A metaprotocol built on Bitcoin Layer 1.

IPInscription inscribes content directly onto satoshis using Ordinals technology, prioritizing security, decentralization, and long-term sustainability — no compromises.

Ordinal Numbering

Each inscription is tied to a specific satoshi — the smallest unit of Bitcoin — giving every asset a unique, traceable identity.

Taproot & Witness Data

Enables efficient on-chain storage of up to ~4MB of data per transaction.

Inscription Envelope

A standard format for embedding MIME-typed content directly on Bitcoin.

Indexer & Explorer

A custom backend for fast searching and verification of IP inscriptions.

Hybrid Storage

Full content on-chain for small assets; hashes + references for larger files, with optional IPFS / Arweave redundancy.

Bitcoin Layer 1

Built as a metaprotocol that prioritizes security, decentralization, and long-term sustainability.

The inscription lifecycle

How a record becomes permanent

1

Upload your asset

Submit a document, image, design, codebase, or any creative work you want to protect.

2

Inscribe on Bitcoin

Your content (or its cryptographic hash) is inscribed onto a satoshi as a permanent record.

3

Receive your certificate

Get a verifiable digital certificate with a timestamp and Bitcoin transaction ID.

4

Verify & monetize

Prove ownership anywhere, trace provenance, and license your IP through the marketplace.

~4MB

Max data per transaction via Taproot witness

1 sat

Each inscription tied to a unique satoshi

L1

Settled directly on Bitcoin — no sidechains

Hybrid storage keeps full content on-chain for small assets, while larger files are represented by cryptographic hashes with optional IPFS / Arweave redundancy — balancing permanence with practicality.
