Taproot Uses
This page is an index of projects using Taproot in an interesting way. Please update with links.
Phases Key:
- Implemented: Real running code without major known deficiencies.
- Spec: A detailed document describing how something should work.
- Prototype: A component of something is built or a toy-level implementation.
- Idea: A description of something which could be built.
