Bitcoin Frontier Fund<\/a>, under the stewardship of Stacks Advisor and Ordinals Show host Trevor Owens<\/a>, unveiled its inaugural accelerator dedicated to Ordinals. Startups joining this accelerator are poised to receive a seed investment of $100,000.<\/p>\n Having previously operated under \u201cStacks Ventures,\u201d the fund\u2019s roots lie in promoting Stacks ecosystem projects and facilitating other layer-2 Bitcoin solutions. Yet, with the emergence of the Ordinals protocol, pioneered by Casey Rodarmor, a palpable shift in focus has been observed. The Bitcoin Frontier Fund now emphasizes Ordinals and protocols anchored \u201cclose to the base layer\u201d of the blockchain.<\/p>\n Up to this point, the Bitcoin Frontier Fund has garnered a significant $6.95M, designed to fortify Bitcoin-centric startups. This pool of funds, backed by notable investors like Muneeb Ali and the Stacks Foundation, is gradually expanding its purview to encompass Ordinals infrastructure firms, with Gamma, Xverse, and Liquidium leading the way.<\/p>\n \u201cWith Ordinals, the dream of working intimately with native Bitcoin is becoming a reality,\u201d Owens said. \u201cCasey Rodarmor\u2019s innovation has truly revolutionized the field.\u201d<\/p>\n The Ordinals protocol presents a refined system for denoting Satoshis, the tiniest unit of Bitcoin. It allows for seamless tracking of arbitrary data appended to \u201cordinal\u201d Satoshi transactions. This breakthrough is lauded for ushering in capabilities akin to NFTs on the Bitcoin platform and is being vetted for its potential to develop new token standards atop Bitcoin.<\/p>\nThe future of Bitcoin <\/h2>\n
