UniSat下场支持,CAT20成为Fractal Bitcoin生态新宠?|BTC生态

自 Fractal Bitcoin 主网上线以来,热点项目如潮水涌动,前仆后继。号称首个代币协议的 FLUX 还没消化完(推荐阅读《场外价格暴增 60 倍,号称 Fractal 首个代币协议的 FLUX 是何来头?》),昨天一个名为 CAT Protocol 的新代币协议又把风头全抢走了。

CAT Protocol 的首个代币 CAT,总量 2100 万,一张 5 个,共 420 万张;目前铸造进度约 35%,按当前进度铸造完成还需要 2 天左右。随着热度增加,Fractal Bitcoin 网络费率已经从 100 飙升至 1500 以上。

CAT 为何引起玩家如此 FOMO,是否值得参与?Odaily星球日报将在本文简要介绍 CAT Protocol 的特点、爆火原因、代打网站及参与成本等,希望对读者有帮助。

完善的代币标准设计

CAT Protocol 包含两个部分,一个是同质化代币标准 CAT 20 ,另一个是非同质化代币标准 CAT 721 ,目前官方文档中仅推出了 CAT 20 。如果仔细阅读 CAT 20 技术文档部分会发现,CAT Protocol 的代币设计从部署到铸造逻辑都相对完善,以下是对 CAT 20 代币特点的简单总结:

  • CAT 20 的代币名称不唯一。与 ERC 20 类似,任何人都可以部署具有相同名称/符号的代币,因此不会存在如 BRC 20 和 Rune 那样抢“代币靓号”的情况;

  • 使用契约来管理代币铸造和转移。当花费 UTXO 铸造新代币时会生出新的 Minter UTXO,而这些 UTXO 又可以用于递归铸造更多代币,虽然 UTXO 会合并,但会保留代币数量。因此实际上社区中广传的因为铸造交易输入中使用了包含资产的 UTXO 烧毁 CAT 资产的现象可能并不存在。

  • 发行与铸造规则更加灵活。与基于索引器的协议不同,CAT 20 代币发行者可以定义任意铸币规则,而无需对底层协议进行任何更改,规则包括:支持付费铸造、限制铸造时间与高度、设置 POW 开采机制、白名单铸造机制和类似质押铸造等规则。详细信息请看官方文档

  • 支持去中心化和中心化发行方式。CAT 20 支持去中心化铸造,类似 BRC 20 ,代币发行人只设定参数,任何人都可以参与铸造新代币;同时也支持中心化铸造,即只有代币发行者才能铸造代币。

  • 支持预挖、代币销毁等功能。

代打平台陆续推出

虽然这些功能足以让一些技术爱好者着迷,但还都存在于文档中,社区也都还在摸索如何进行转账。目前玩家们能做的只有铸造,而除了自己搭建节点以外,一些代打平台也在陆续推出,列举如下:

  • CoinTool :去年打过多链铭文的伙伴或许会熟悉这个平台,目前其也推出了 CAT 20 代打工具。当时仍然主要用户导入钱包助记词,具有一定的风险,感兴趣的小伙伴可以使用小额地址测试。

  • bitatom:独立开发者ZEN爆肝的一款工具,此前其独立开发出了 Atomicals 交易市场,社区信任度较高。目前其平台仅能显示 CAT 铸造进度,铸造功能还在开发中,相信马上就能上线。

  • Runetoshi:实际上其是一个代打收费服务,而不是平台。用户需要在其 Discord 中开票,并向其发送 FB 才行,而且每铸造一次收费 0.2 FB,收费较贵。实际上目前社区中有许多代打服务,玩家可以自行在社区中寻找,但也要注意诈骗风险。

CAT 20 仅上线 2 天,市场的反应速度已经相当快了,相信过不了多久就会有更好用的工具上线,减少玩家间的参与门槛差距。

UniSat 支持,CAT 20 背后究竟是谁?

CAT Protocol 的团队目前仍保持着“神秘”状态,官方 X 账号只发布了一条推文后就没有了任何声音,仿佛是一块丢入市场的石头,在激起水花后默默沉底。

如果仅因为 CAT 20 代币设计的完善并不会引起大规模的 FOMO,毕竟不是所有人都有时间和兴趣阅读文档。真正引起大规模 FOMO,将铸造 Gas 拉到 1500 以上的原因是,UniSat 昨晚更新了 Fractal 浏览器并增加了 CAT 20 的页面。

这种悄无声息的更新,被社区更多的解读为“早有预谋”,并怀疑 UniSat 是 CAT 20 背后的支持团队。不过在昨日晚间由社区举办的推特 space“Ord My God”上,Unisat 和 Fractal 团队成员Vivian在面对这个问题时回答也相当含蓄和保守,并没有清晰阐明和 CAT 20 的关系。“所有在 Fractal 上进行建设的项目官方都愿意支持,可以更多的将此次更新当作是测试。”

同时,也有社区成员猜测,CAT Protocol 背后的团队是在 OP_CAT 领域深耕许久的 sCrypt Official 团队。原因是他们对 OP_CAT 的技术了解足以提出这样完善的代币协议,而且 CAT Protocol 官方文档中的风格和字体都与 sCrypt Official 的习惯一致。

如果猜测准确,sCrypt Official 团队在之前已经获得了 Fractal 生态 Season 0 资助的 1 万枚 FB,证明双方早有合作,UniSat 此次支持 CAT 20 也就不足为奇了。

除了 CAT Protocol 的 CAT 20 以外,现在比特币生态中还有另外两个 CAT 协议。一个是 opnet 创始人 Danny,其号称在 8 月份就发明 CAT 20 ,并将在 Fractal 主网 21000 区块后激活;另一个是 Taproot Wizards 和量子猫联创 Udi Wertheimer,其也将基于 OP_CAT 发布了代币协议 CATNIP,不过只支持在比特币主网。

如此看来,以 OP_CAT 驱动的代币协议,已经形成了“三国争霸”的形势。目前看来,UniSat 支持的 CAT Protocol 占据优势。CAT Protocol 能够在任何激活 OP_CAT 的 UTXO 链上运行,也就是说未来待比特币主网支持 OP_CAT,其也可以迁移至主网。

卖铲子的人最先发财

目前 CAT 的场外交易买一价为 2 USDT/张(5 个),但是成交较少,可能是目前还能铸造或者是转账不顺利等原因。以下是社区制作的一张 CAT 铸造成本表,目前 Fractal 网络费率水平在 1800-2000 左右,铸造一张的成本约为 2 USDT,现在铸造已经没有多大的利润了。但如果在费率 200 以下铸造了 CAT,那么目前获得超 10 倍的收益。

在旧金山淘金热期间,是否真的有大量黄金使冒险家们赚到了钱不得而知,但那些在矿场卖牛仔裤和铲子的倒是真正赚到了钱。

在 CAT 20 上,除了早期铸造者现在有了可观收益外(如果能卖出去的话),已经赚钱的则是提供代打、代部署和卖 FB 代币的玩家,这三者都是铸造 CAT 需要的“铲子”。

代打和代部署没有公开数据并不好评估,但 FB 供不应求趋势已经体现在价格上——价格从 CAT 铸造未开始前的 15 美元拉高至到 30 美元,仅仅用时不到一天。目前用户可以在社区场外 OTC、比特币去中心化交易所 DotSwap 和中心化交易所 coinex 交易 FB。数据显示,FB 现在流通量约为 127 万枚左右,流通市值约为 3834 万美元,总市值 63 亿美元。

只靠注意力能够持续多久?

号称首个 Fractal 代币协议的 FLUX 已经淡出了人们的视野,场外成交也惨淡。FLUX 当时利用“First is first”的叙事点,抓住了早期流量。而如今的 CAT 20 一方面拿捏了比特币生态对难度和门槛的“传统追求”,一方面又有了 UniSat 的加持,再次激发玩家们的关注。

CAT 20 虽然在设计上有一定的优势,但本质还是注意力经济的产物。但这种注意力经济能够持续多久?

实际上在比特币主网上曾经也出现过许多新代币协议,它们都有着自己的“创新”和“特点”,也都在场外引起 FOMO,但依然难逃消亡的命运,如 huge、veda、cbrc 20、Compos Protocol(cpos)以及 Orddefi。Fractal 可能也会走上同样的路,而大多数玩家也只能和以前一样,没有任何技巧,唯有坚持不懈的赌下去,持续地消耗着注意力与筹码。

τ Scaling: Huawei's New Growth Engine Designed for the Post-Moore Era

**Tau Scaling: Huawei's New Growth Engine for the Post-Moore Era** For 60 years, progress in semiconductors was driven by Moore's Law – making transistors smaller, denser, and cheaper. This path has now stalled due to plummeting returns below 7nm, astronomical lithography costs, and rising per-transistor expenses. After six years and testing 381 production chips, Huawei’s semiconductor team proposes a fundamental shift: **stop competing on size, start competing on time**. This is the core of their "τ (Tau) Scaling" theory. It treats *time* as the key optimization metric, compressing characteristic delays (τ) across all levels – from transistor switching (picoseconds) to data center tasks (seconds), spanning 12 orders of magnitude. **What is τ Scaling?** It holistically minimizes delay/time constants (τ) across four layers: transistors (switching speed), circuits (signal delay), chips (compute/memory access), and systems (end-to-end communication). The goal is to align optimization from process and circuit design to architecture and systems using this unified metric. **Mobile Application: LogicFolding** Without advancing the process node, this technique vertically stacks chips using ultra-precision hybrid bonding, distributing critical paths across layers ("stacking floors"). Results include a 55% transistor density increase, 41% better energy efficiency, over 40% higher SRAM frequency, and a roadmap targeting 4GHz by 2029. **AI Data Center Application: Full-Link Latency Compression** With 80% of AI cluster energy and 70% cost spent on data movement, the focus is slashing communication time. Key innovations include: 1. **Unified Bus:** Cuts multi-layer protocols, reducing remote access latency from microseconds to ~100 nanoseconds – 500x faster. 2. **Hi-ONE Optical Interconnect:** Replaces copper with fiber, enabling 8Tb/s per module and scaling distances from 1m to 100m for 10,000-chip clusters. 3. **3D Folding:** Solves the "interface bottleneck" of 2.5D packaging by vertically integrating memory, power, and optical I/O alongside compute, predicting over 100x integration density gain by 2035. **Re-fusion of Logic and Memory** The AI era, where data movement is more critical than computation, demands tight 3D integration of logic and memory, shifting industry influence towards memory and advanced packaging. **Remaining Challenges** include adapting EDA tools for 3D design, optimizing wafer-to-wafer process variation and vertical interconnect losses, and establishing new energy efficiency and benchmarking standards. **Conclusion:** The era of scaling physical dimensions is over. The era of scaling time has begun. By leveraging 3D stacking, system architecture, and interconnect optimization—rather than solely chasing advanced lithography—performance and efficiency can continue to advance. This is poised to be the semiconductor industry's core roadmap for the next decade.

NodeStrategy: The First Ordinals DAT Project, Bringing the Strategy Treasury Narrative to NFTs

**Summary: The Fundamental Flaws of NodeStrategy, the 'First Ordinals DAT'** NodeStrategy presents itself as the first Ordinals Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) on Bitcoin. Its model mirrors MicroStrategy's treasury narrative but for NFTs, specifically targeting the NodeMonkes collection (not officially affiliated). The project's core mechanism is a four-step flywheel: a 10% fee on all trades (90% to treasury, 10% to radFi/Bound marketplace) is used to buy NodeMonkes. These NFTs are then listed for sale on Satflow, with 100% of the sale proceeds used to buy back and burn the project's token, NODESTRAT, aiming to create a perpetual value cycle. However, the design contains critical, self-defeating flaws: 1. **Platform Lock-In:** As a Bitcoin Rune, NODESTRAT lacks smart contract functionality and cannot natively enforce the 10% fee. The fee can only be collected on the radFi/Bound marketplace itself. This makes the entire flywheel dependent on a single platform. If liquidity moves elsewhere, fee revenue drops to zero, halting the mechanism. 2. **Self-Suffocating Economics:** The 10% fee acts both as the flywheel's fuel and a major drag on demand. A buy/sell roundtrip incurs a 20% cost, creating a massive hurdle for traders. This strangles the very trading volume needed to generate fees. 3. **Ineffective Value Support:** The flywheel is starved. Low daily volume (~$9K) generates minimal fees for NFT purchases. The NFT "ladder" sales are slow and unpredictable (only 39 total sold), meaning buybacks are infrequent. While 30.77% of the supply has been burned, this supply reduction cannot lift price without corresponding demand, which is suppressed by the high transaction tax. 4. **Meaningless NAV:** The Net Asset Value (NAV), currently at a 0.46x discount to market cap, is merely a marketing figure. There is no redemption mechanism for token holders to claim the underlying NodeMonkes assets. Price is set by market liquidity flows, not by this theoretical backing. In essence, NodeStrategy's design forces its revenue source (trading fees) to simultaneously cripple the demand and liquidity required for its own success, trapping the project in a stagnant state.

Agentic Design Patterns: A Book That Made Me Re-Understand "What Is an Agent, Really?"

"Agentic Design Patterns" is a 2025 book by Antonio Gullí, a Google engineering director, which offers a systematic framework for AI Agent development through 21 design patterns. A core contribution is the "Four Levels of Agency": Level 0 (bare LLMs) are not true agents. Level 1 agents actively decide when and how to use tools. Level 2 agents engage in strategic planning, context engineering (curating and filtering information), and self-reflection. Level 3 involves multi-agent collaboration with defined communication topologies. The book introduces **Context Engineering** as a superset of prompt engineering, managing four layers of information for the agent: system prompts, external data, implicit context (user history, environment), and feedback loops for automated optimization. A key pattern is **Reflection (Producer-Critic)**, where two distinct agents with different prompts collaborate iteratively—one produces output, the other critiques it—until quality is satisfactory or a max iteration limit is reached. For **Memory**, a three-layer model is proposed: Session (ephemeral conversation context), State (temporary task data), and Memory (persistent, long-term storage). Regarding **Multi-Agent Systems**, the book advises against unnecessary complexity, recommending simple topologies like Supervisor or Peer-to-Peer based on task needs. It emphasizes perfecting a single Level 2 agent before moving to multi-agent setups. The author concludes with three actionable takeaways: 1) Add a Critic agent to existing workflows, 2) Practice Context Engineering beyond simple prompts, and 3) Avoid premature multi-agent complexity; first master a robust single agent. The book provides a practical map, codifying common challenges like reflection, memory, and coordination into reusable patterns, saving developers from reinventing foundational solutions.

An AI Read SpaceX's Prospectus and Wrote This Investment Memo in 12 Minutes

An AI agent autonomously analyzed SpaceX's 226MB S-1 filing, purchased real-time market data on-chain for $1.87, and generated a comprehensive investment memo in 12 minutes. The memo concludes a "Hold" recommendation. Bull Thesis: SpaceX holds a near-monopoly in commercial launch (80% of global orbital mass since 2023), operates the profitable Starlink business (10.3M subscribers, $7.2B adj. EBITDA), and is vertically integrated from rockets to AI via the xAI acquisition. Starlink alone is a standout, high-margin business. Bear Thesis: The AI division is a massive cash burn ($6.4B operating loss on $3.2B revenue in 2025). True debt obligations approach ~$42B, not the headline $29B, due to bridge loans and X-related debt. Significant contingent liabilities exist, including a potential $10B fee from a Cursor option agreement. The company faces concentrated counterparty risk (e.g., a $45B Anthropic contract), slowing revenue growth, and complex governance as a controlled company with four share classes. Valuation anchors Starlink's standalone value at ~$84B (applying Iridium's 7.4x sales multiple), suggesting the current ~$500B+ IPO target prices in immense future execution risk for Starship and AI. Key risks include Starship delays, accelerating AI losses, and underwriter conflicts (the IPO's lead banks are also lenders on the $20B bridge loan it aims to refinance). Investment triggers: upgrade to "Overweight" if priced ≤$350B and Starship meets milestones; downgrade to "Pass" if priced >$510B or key risks materialize.

What is $BITCOIN

DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN): A Comprehensive Analysis Introduction to DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) is a blockchain-based project operating on the Solana network, which aims to combine the characteristics of traditional precious metals with the innovation of decentralized technologies. While it shares a name with Bitcoin, often referred to as “digital gold” due to its perception as a store of value, DIGITAL GOLD is a separate token designed to create a unique ecosystem within the Web3 landscape. Its goal is to position itself as a viable alternative digital asset, although specifics regarding its applications and functionalities are still developing. What is DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN)? DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) is a cryptocurrency token explicitly designed for use on the Solana blockchain. In contrast to Bitcoin, which provides a widely recognized value storage role, this token appears to focus on broader applications and characteristics. Notable aspects include: Blockchain Infrastructure: The token is built on the Solana blockchain, known for its capacity to handle high-speed and low-cost transactions. Supply Dynamics: DIGITAL GOLD has a maximum supply capped at 100 quadrillion tokens (100P $BITCOIN), although details regarding its circulating supply are currently undisclosed. Utility: While precise functionalities are not explicitly outlined, there are indications that the token could be utilized for various applications, potentially involving decentralized applications (dApps) or asset tokenization strategies. Who is the Creator of DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN)? At present, the identity of the creators and development team behind DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) remains unknown. This situation is typical among many innovative projects within the blockchain space, particularly those aligning with decentralized finance and meme coin phenomena. While such anonymity may foster a community-driven culture, it intensifies concerns about governance and accountability. Who are the Investors of DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN)? The available information indicates that DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) does not have any known institutional backers or prominent venture capital investments. The project seems to operate on a peer-to-peer model focused on community support and adoption rather than traditional funding routes. Its activity and liquidity are primarily situated on decentralized exchanges (DEXs), such as PumpSwap, rather than established centralized trading platforms, further highlighting its grassroots approach. How DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) Works The operational mechanics of DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) can be elaborated on based on its blockchain design and network attributes: Consensus Mechanism: By leveraging Solana’s unique proof-of-history (PoH) combined with a proof-of-stake (PoS) model, the project ensures efficient transaction validation contributing to the network's high performance. Tokenomics: While specific deflationary mechanisms have not been extensively detailed, the vast maximum token supply implies that it may cater to microtransactions or niche use cases that are still to be defined. Interoperability: There exists the potential for integration with Solana’s broader ecosystem, including various decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms. However, the details regarding specific integrations remain unspecified. Timeline of Key Events Here is a timeline that highlights significant milestones concerning DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN): 2023: The initial deployment of the token occurs on the Solana blockchain, marked by its contract address. 2024: DIGITAL GOLD gains visibility as it becomes available for trading on decentralized exchanges like PumpSwap, allowing users to trade it against SOL. 2025: The project witnesses sporadic trading activity and potential interest in community-led engagements, although no noteworthy partnerships or technical advancements have been documented as of yet. Critical Analysis Strengths Scalability: The underlying Solana infrastructure supports high transaction volumes, which could enhance the utility of $BITCOIN in various transaction scenarios. Accessibility: The potential low trading price per token could attract retail investors, facilitating wider participation due to fractional ownership opportunities. Risks Lack of Transparency: The absence of publicly known backers, developers, or an audit process may yield skepticism regarding the project's sustainability and trustworthiness. Market Volatility: The trading activity is heavily reliant on speculative behavior, which can result in significant price volatility and uncertainty for investors. Conclusion DIGITAL GOLD ($BITCOIN) emerges as an intriguing yet ambiguous project within the rapidly evolving Solana ecosystem. While it attempts to leverage the “digital gold” narrative, its departure from Bitcoin's established role as a store of value underscores the need for a clearer differentiation of its intended utility and governance structure. Future acceptance and adoption will likely depend on addressing the current opacity and defining its operational and economic strategies more explicitly. Note: This report encompasses synthesised information available as of October 2023, and developments may have transpired beyond the research period.
