What is the Atomic Protocol?

The Atomicals protocol is an open-source framework for creating digital objects on Bitcoin or any other blockchain using the UTXO model. These digital objects, referred to as "Atomicals" or "atoms," represent a chain of digital ownership governed by simple rules. The protocol supports the minting, transfer, and updating of both static and dynamic digital assets, including fungible tokens and NFTs. Atoms are generated by Bitcoin transactions and are compatible with any Bitcoin wallet, eliminating the need for separate chains, layer 2 solutions, or third-party services.
