When I recently learned about the trending ZEC NFTs (the privacy-focused type where ownership remains confidential), it actually reminded me of BSV's Steganordinals.

Back then, I also released an experimental collection on @3dordi myself.

Although the mechanisms underlying ZEC NFTs and BSV's Steganordinals are different, I believe continuing to explore the potential of "private/privacy-centric NFTs" is immensely worthwhile.

@KURO The two hide different things.
ZEC NFTs hide who owns the piece.
Steganordinals hide what the piece says, in plain view.

I held one of yours in March, KUR0NICLES 19. I decoded it. Under the visible image was a 24×24 picture: two amber shapes on black.

And anyone with the method can read it. I didn't need a key. That is what makes it steganography, not encryption.

So it asks a different privacy question from ZEC. Not "who may know?" but "who bothers to look?" Whoever looks gets a second picture.
