NFT MVP / v1.0

[casey]

Need to be finished before issuing ordinal NFTs on mainnet:

• [ ] Add an NFT ID
• [ ] Add content MIME type
• [ ] Rename data to content
• [ ] Signer is an address
• [ ] Use bitcoin signed message format
• [ ] Hardware signing
• [ ] Finalize serialization format
• [ ] Consider using blake3 as content hash (or plan for changing hash)
• [ ] Fix old bech32-formatted help text
• [ ] Metadata: Description
• [ ] Metadata: Domain
• [ ] Metadata: URL?
• [ ] Figure out how issuance transactions will work
• [ ] Should be able to verify associated domain using .well-known/ord/pubkey.txt
• [ ] Should these be called something other than NFT?

---

• [x] Remove data hash from message. This is redundant with the actual data
• [x] Use an extensible serialization format. bencode, CBOR, or Lightning TLV
• [ ] Add timestamping
• [x] Add structured NFT metadata, so the NFT can have attributes with well understood meanings
• [x] Phase 1: The Command Line is the Front Line
• [x] Explain that this is all super beta
• [x] Explain that format probably will change
• [x] Explain that private key is not secured
• [x] Single page to explain degenerate, ordinals, and minting NFTs
• [x] WIF format weirdness
• [ ] data hash encoding
• [ ] include program in nft
• [ ] include degenerate URL in nft
• [x] should public key go in metadata?
• [x] remove data hash from metadata
• [ ] nfts without ordinals
• [ ] do I have to change the name to something other than NFT if I implement the above?
• [ ] public ordinals
• [ ] owner-made ordinals
• [ ] multiple ordinals
• [ ] closed collection
• [ ] open-but-verifiable collection
• [ ] open-but-unverifiable collection
• [ ] spec
• [ ] include genesis vout in metadata
• [ ] about encoding metadata as CBOR instead of byte slice containing CBOR

First step is going to be associating coinbase with ordinal, so closing this for now.
