What Are EVM Inscriptions?
EVM Inscriptions, also known as Ethscriptions, function similarly to Bitcoin’s Ordinals protocol. They enable users to register files (up to 96 KB in size) on the Ethereum mainnet by embedding hexadecimal memo data within blockchain transactions. Once recorded, these inscriptions become immutable and benefit from Ethereum’s network security.
