OP_RETURN · mint 1000 STONES
Your order is written inside an ordinary Bitcoin payment — in the small space Satoshi left in every transaction for notes exactly like this. Nothing new is invented. It is a Bitcoin transaction carrying a message.
Schnorr signature · BIP-340
You lock the order with your key. That signature is the only thing on earth that proves the order came from you, and it cannot be peeled off and stuck onto someone else’s.
broadcast
Your transaction is passed from computer to computer around the world. There is no company in the middle to ask for permission. Anyone can already watch it coming.
mempool
It waits in the mempool — the world’s waiting room — next to everybody else’s. Whoever offers the bigger fee gets picked up sooner. No queue-jumping by connections, only by paying.
BLOCK 961,393
Machines all over the planet burn real electricity racing to win the right to build the next block. The winner packs your transaction inside it.
immutable
Changing your transaction now would mean burning all that electricity again and out-racing everyone still working. That is why nobody can rewrite it. Not the protocol. Not this site. Not us.
covenant · Simplicity
The rule does not sit beside the money — it is engraved into the money. Before a coin can move, it checks every condition itself: who gets paid, how much, at what price. If a single one fails, the move is impossible to sign. There is nobody to persuade.
sealed by proof-of-work
The price is never fetched from a website that could lie, go down, or be bought. It is worked out from Bitcoin’s own transactions, then sealed with proof-of-work — so faking it would cost real electricity.
no database
Nobody stores your balance anywhere. Every order ever written is read back in order, and all the totals are recomputed from the chain. A bank tells you your balance and asks you to believe it. Here it is recalculated, every time.
read-only
We show what the chain already says. We hold no coins, we write nothing, we decide nothing. Switch this site off and every number below still exists.
The lines below are those exact transactions, read straight out of the blocks.
Every line below was written into a Bitcoin block. Nothing here is stored by this site — it is read back from the chain, block by block.
