Use cases / Research

If you chase threads across sources, Taproot is your through-line.

These are the shapes that come up most. Yours might not be on the list — that’s fine. The page is for recognizing the pattern, not the persona.

Some of the shapes

Eighty papers, six months of synthesis, a draft you keep editing.
