Recently, Lightning Labs launched Taproot Assets, which has generated a lot of interest and excitement from users. The enthusiasm to be one of the first pioneers to reach out to or own Taproot Assets was evident in our recent Zealy event, with over 8,000 single Nostr addresses already registered.

In addition, our integration partner, Alby Wallet, saw a surge in sign-ups during our event, with more than 6,000 sign-ups, a significant increase from previous weeks.

After months of relentless dedication, innovation, and rigorous testing, we are excited to announce the long-awaited launch of Taproot Assets on the NostrAssets mainnet. This significant development opens up a variety of possibilities for the Taproot community, ushering in a new era of decentralized finance.

What can you do with Taproot assets on NostrAssets in the current version?

We have developed a comprehensive set of features for Taproot Assets and we will introduce them to the public step by step. This strategy ensures that all features are rigorously tested before any new features are introduced.

• Transfer Taproot Assets via NostrAsset web client or other decentralized social messaging applications on Nostr:

Say goodbye to gas fees! You can now transfer your Taproot Assets directly to another Nostr address, quickly and cost-effectively.

• To trade Taproot Assets on the NostrAssets Marketplace:
