Bitcoin Frontier Fund announces large investments in Bitcoin ecosystem
In 2023, Bitcoin (BTC) saw a tumultuous shift in its trajectory with the emergence of Ordinals, an initiative that pushed the narrative beyond mere talk of digital gold into a realm of seemingly boundless possibilities for the network.
At the forefront of this transformation was the Bitcoin Frontier Fund (BFF) dedicated to innovation within the Bitcoin ecosystem.
Bitcoin Ordinals
In August 2023, BFF unveiled its pioneering accelerator program focused on Ordinals, merging the expertise of seasoned investors with the creativity of Bitcoin developers.
The initiative marked a significant step towards a more vibrant economy in the network conducted exclusively in BTC and heralding a departure from the coin’s traditional role as a store of value.
Today, on March 14, BFF announced the inclusion of a number of projects into its portfolio, each exemplifying the innovation ethos introduced by Ordinals after initially teasing the announcement.
This is an announcement of an announcement.
