We are thrilled to share that (ORDI) is now listed on Coinhako!
What is ORDI?
ORDI is a cryptocurrency distinct from the Ordinals project. It's the first token on the Bitcoin network using the BRC-20 standard, which enables token issuance without directly involving Ordinals functionalities.
Despite its name, ORDI is primarily a meme coin with only a conceptual link to Ordinals. Inscribed on March 8, 2023, ORDI quickly gained popularity. By May 2023, it was listed on exchanges, reaching a $348 million USD market value and becoming the highest-valued BRC-20 token with a $68 million market cap. This success contributed to the growth of Bitcoin-based tokens.
There is a total supply of 21,000,000 ORDI, and at its peak, ORDI traded for US $96.17.
How does ORDI work?
ORDI uses the Bitcoin Ordinals Inscription protocol, embedding data into Satoshis without smart contracts. Inscriptions are made directly on the Bitcoin network, linking each token to a specific Satoshi. This approach transforms Satoshis into collectible assets, offering vast tokenization potential within Bitcoin's 2. 1 quadrillion Satoshis.
Ordinals enrich the Bitcoin ecosystem by integrating digital art and collectibles, expanding its use beyond financial transactions. However, due to Bitcoin's block size constraints, data types are mainly limited to text and images.
Why does ORDI stand out?
ORDI, using Bitcoin Ordinals Inscription, transforms Satoshis into digital information carriers, revolutionizing Bitcoin's use. Key applications include:
1. Digital art NFTs: Artists create unique, verifiable works on Satoshis.
2. Secure data storage: Embedding text and images for immutable information sharing.
3. Asset tokenization: Representing real-world assets digitally on the Bitcoin network. ORDI expands Bitcoin's utility, offering innovative solutions in art, data management, and asset digitization.
