Lightning Labs to Roll Out ‘Taproot Assets’ for Bitcoin BTC

“The protocol only requires an issuer to make a single bitcoin transaction to mint an effectively unbounded amount of Taproot Assets, and all of the metadata describing those assets is stored off-chain, with only a cryptographic commitment to the assets stored on-chain,” Gentry wrote in a direct message. “Further, transacting with Taproot Assets over the Lightning Network will happen off-chain and will not touch the blockchain at all.”
