A good read on the nature of the "dust limit" and how it impacts

.
The dust limit parameter is set to 546 Satoshis and by default BTC nodes will not relay less than that amount.
However an Atomicals-friendly miner can mine the transactions less than that down to 1

Even without additional Op Codes the original Bitcoin Op Codes are Turing Complete in the truest sense. The additional Op Codes serve functions for token deposit and withdraw and private state storage.

The conceptual idea is simple: AVM smart contract locks the tokens to a surrogate token id. The tokens on Radiant/Nervos can be transferred like regular L1 tokens and any owner at a future point in time can burn the surrogate tokens to claim back any quantity of the locked ARC20.
Atomicals is more than two years in the making with R&D. This is our work of passion and love for the world.
It is with great excitement and honor to deliver it to you and for all our descendants. Free, open and decentralized, just like Bitcoin.
The key innovation that allows this to happen efficiently is the induction system of Radiant or the cell system of Nervos combined with

There is no investment. There are no project tokens and there never will be.
We are not affiliated with nor endorse any market, wallet, token, or project.
The AVM smart contract establishes a covenant that only allows the tokens on the BTC side to be unlocked provided the appropriate Radiant or Nervos block headers and SPV merkle proofs of associated surrogate burns.
In theory this works for all other proof-of-work blockchains.
