Show Notes

OP_CTV (short for OP_CHECKTEMPLATEVERIFY) is a one-line soft-fork that turns Bitcoin into a programmable settlement layer—without recursion, without loops, and without any new signature checks. It's a simple, genius piece of code that would scale bitcoin in time vs space and has had zero objections from subject matter experts for the past six years.
