Ethereum developers attended the Bitcoin 2023 conference in Miami to showcase Ordinals, a protocol that has sparked innovation in the Bitcoin community. During the conference's "Pitch Day," OrdinalSafe, a Bitcoin wallet built for Ordinals, won second place in the infrastructure category. Despite concerns about Ordinals potentially leading to centralization or censorship issues, developers with an Ethereum background are using the protocol to explore Bitcoin and build projects, such as a decentralized exchange and an Ordinals explorer that tracks inscriptions and BRC-20 tokens. The CEO of OrdinalSafe, Esad Yusuf Atik, felt welcomed by the Bitcoin community at the conference, despite some tension regarding Ordinals potentially being an attack on Bitcoin.
