The following is a WIP guide for installing nix-bitcoin on a RaspberryPi 4.

NixOS is supported on the Pi 4 as an aarch-64 image. Read more here.
Currently, the builds running on Hydra are broken past linux kernel version 5.10, so we'll stick to that version.
Look for a successfully building image on the Hydra website. (Check that you're downloading the 5.10 Linux kernel.)
For example, this guide was built with this build: https://hydra.nixos.org/build/157989162

The image is compressed with zstd. Download and run unzstd to uncompress, or with Nix nix-shell -p zstd --run "unzstd -d .img.zst".

I have code, I want to nix-ify it. How?

Make it a flake.

What's a flake?

This explanation from the Zero-to-Nix flake entry is good:

"A Nix flake is a directory with a flake.nix and flake.lock at the root that outputs Nix expressions that others can use to do things like build packages, run programs, use development environments, or stand up NixOS systems. If necessary, flakes can use the outputs of other flakes as inputs."

A flake is a directory, and makes most sense when that directory is also a git source tree.
