Delivery Tracking

From the moment you fund a batch, everything is observable. The batch view in the console tracks each stage with the underlying transaction ids, so you can verify every step in any Bitcoin explorer.

The delivery pipeline

Each inscription is delivered with the standard ordinals two-transaction pattern:

StageWhat happens
Payment seenYour funding payment appears at the payment address (visible while still unconfirmed)
Payment confirmedThe funding transaction is mined — the engine starts within seconds
Commit broadcastThe commit transaction commits to your media content on-chain
Commit confirmedMined — the reveal is broadcast within seconds
Reveal broadcastThe reveal transaction creates the inscription itself
Reveal confirmedDelivered. The inscription now sits in the recipient’s wallet

Each confirmed stage normally takes one block (~10 minutes on average at the normal fee tier); the engine’s own steps between confirmations take seconds. A full mainnet delivery has been measured at ~30 minutes end-to-end including the funding payment and the recipient’s claim (see the timeline).

Verify it yourself

Every stage exposes its transaction id. The reveal transaction id is the inscription id (with an i0-style suffix) — paste it into an ordinals explorer to see the delivered inscription, its content, and the owning address. Skrybit verifies delivery against its own Bitcoin nodes, but you never have to take our word for it: it is all on-chain.

Resilience

The engine’s delivery ledger is reconciled against the chain continuously. If anything interrupts a batch mid-flight — an infrastructure restart, a temporarily unreachable node — the engine resumes exactly where the chain says it left off; funds at the payment address are never double-spent and inscriptions are never duplicated.

When it’s delivered

Delivered means delivered: the recipient’s wallet holds the inscription with no further action from you or them. What remains is the engagement layer — letting recipients discover and prove what they received: Managing Claims.
