Timelocks and how they can be used in Ordinals
In a conversation with Rob Hamilton, the co-founder and ceo of AnchorWatch.
In this episode, we delve into the concept of Bitcoin's native timelock feature and its growing importance in the ecosystem. The discussion covers how timelocks work within the Bitcoin network, including the different types like absolute and relative timelocks, and their implementation in protocols such as the Lightning Network. We explore various use cases ranging from secure custody solutions, vesting schedules, to innovative applications like staking NFTs (in this case Ordinals) and fungible tokens. The conversation also touches on the technical aspects and potential for future developments, emphasizing the importance of timelocks in creating a more secure and trustless Bitcoin environment.
