DMT

Digital Matter Theory: tokens whose content is derived deterministically from block data rather than stored in each mint.

Chain

Bitcoin

Carrier

Ordinals inscription referencing a deployed element

Ownership model

hybrid

Operations

deploy, mint, transfer

Also written

tap-dmt, tap_dmt

Where it came from

Created outside Bitcoin Universe by The Trac ecosystem, 2023.

Where the specification lives

DMT has no Bitcoin Universe specification repository. Its specification is Maintained upstream by the Trac ecosystem.

Bitcoin Universe indexes or implements it in bitcoinuniverseio/index-dmt.

Support in Bitcoin Universe products

Feature gated

Implemented, but switched off unless an operator enables the gate.

Execution model: Built and executed inside Universe products. This surface sits behind the dmtMarketplaceV1 feature gate.

Where it appears

• Core: view, view-collection, view-activity, list, update-listing, unlist, buy, make-offer, accept-offer, cancel-offer, settle, reconcile
• Wallet: view, send, receive

Not implemented, and why

sell

DMT has no executable offer workflow on this marketplace surface.

Operational behaviour

Indexing

State is read from Configured index-dmt executable Marketplace authority.

What must be true before any change is accepted: Execution requires distinct read and execution credentials, a fresh DMT readiness checkpoint, exact complete inventory, clean funding, immutable economics, and protocol-native post-sign validation.

Confirmation

Settlement requires the exact confirmed Bitcoin transaction, the consumed DMT transfer inscription, and the buyer indexed balance at stable checkpoints.

Settlement requires at least 1 confirmation.

Reorganisation

The authority appends reorg observations, reopens or invalidates affected orders deterministically, and preserves funding, broadcast, settlement, and replacement lineage.

Freshness

Every mutation is bound to stable DMT, Ord, Bitcoin Core, and complete-inventory checkpoints; deployment readiness must enforce the configured checkpoint age and lag limits.
