This page is an index of projects using Taproot in an interesting way. Please update with links. Also see Bech32 adoption for Wallets implementing Bech32m and P2TR.

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.
