The OnChain Monkeys (OCM) project helped pioneer the recursion method with the design of its OCM Dimensions collection, which it first inscribed on Bitcoin back in February 2022

A range of projects are embracing recursive inscriptions

One area the method is gaining a lot of traction is Bitcoin’s PFP sector, where collections are uploading traits via inscriptions & then using recursive inscriptions to create 1,000s of dynamic digital collectibles

The Ninja Alerts team is breaking ground here with their Bitcoin Pizza Ninjas collection which uses recursive inscriptions for art generation & upgradeable traits

They even made a Super Nintendo emulator on Bitcoin that its ninja characters can play within via recursive inscriptions

Another project worth tracking currently?

Quantum Cats, a collection by the Taproot Wizards team that’s using recursive inscriptions and other new techniques to build the project out in the open but without revealing the completed art ahead of its official release

There’s nothing special you have to do to access the capabilities of recursive inscriptions as a regular user

However, you will need a Bitcoin wallet that offers support for recursive inscriptions (many don’t)

Two wallets that do offer such support are Leather & Xverse

Love ‘em or hate ‘em, recursive Bitcoin inscriptions are just another reason why Ordinals are here to stay

As such, look for further booms in Bitcoin’s art, gaming, & PFP scenes going forward as more & more projects experiment with linking inscriptions with other inscriptions!

This innovation expanded the landscape of possibilities around Ordinals and led to a surge of new creative efforts, like generative art releases, on Bitcoin
