what's NAT (DMT-NAT)?
NAT is a Bitcoin-native token derived directly from Bitcoin's block data through the Digital Matter Theory (DMT) framework. It represents a form of digital matter embedded within Bitcoin's blockchain, automatically generated as new blocks are mined. This creates a symbiotic relationship where NAT issuance aligns with Bitcoin's halving cycles and block rewards, positioning it as a secondary subsidy for miners and a hedge against volatility. The project aims to unify blockchain ecosystems by leveraging Bitcoin's security and decentralization. NAT tokens are inscribed on Bitcoin using protocols like Ordinals, ensuring they inherit Bitcoin's scarcity and immutability. Unlike traditional tokens, NAT is not minted via smart contracts but emerges organically from Bitcoin's protocol, fostering long-term alignment with BTC's growth. DMT posits that blockchain data can be interpreted as programmable matter, enabling applications in cross-chain interoperability and decentralized finance. NAT serves as the native asset for this theory, supporting utilities like staking for network security and integration with Bitcoin's Lightning Network for scalable transactions.
