NewsletterBitcoin Ordinals Skyrocket with Binance Listing ORDI Tokens
Bitcoin’s latest innovation, Ordinals, is witnessing a substantial spike in trading activity, reaching a six-month high. This surge aligns with the Binance exchange, embracing ORDI, the pioneering BRC-20 token, heightening the market’s enthusiasm.
BRC-20 Tokens Galvanize Bitcoin Trading Sphere
On Tuesday, Bitcoin Ordinal’s trade volume soared, marking the highest since May, with transactions amounting to approximately $14.7 million. Ordinals, reminiscent of NFTs, embed data onto individual satoshis, the smallest Bitcoin unit. This transformative capability stems from Bitcoin’s Taproot upgrade, expanding the blockchain’s utility beyond mere currency.
Moreover, Binance’s recent decision to list ORDI has infused fresh momentum into the market. Consequently, the ORDI token’s value has catapulted by 22% in a day, reaching $ 12.43 from its initial $5.91 on Binance’s platform. This uptick reflects the exchange’s influence and the broader ascent of Bitcoin’s price toward the $35,000 mark.

Binance Catalyzes Ordinals and ORDI Token Frenzy
While OKX exchange initially led the Ordinals transaction volume, Binance’s support for ORDI has altered the landscape significantly. Charlie Spears from Luxor Technologies notes that Binance’s involvement has “sent everything flying” in the Ordinals space, spurring these assets’ tokenized and JPEG aspects.
This enthusiasm also arrives amid a general revival in the NFT market, which saw a three-month high in trading volume, showcasing a resilient interest in digital art and tokenized assets.
Optimizing Bitcoin’s Network Efficiency
Despite the excitement around Ordinals, some Bitcoin enthusiasts expressed concern earlier this year when transaction fees surged. However, the current rate for high-priority transactions has moderated to 98 sat/vB, indicating a more accessible market for these novel assets.
In light of these developments, influential firms like Yuga Labs have adopted Ordinals for minting Bitcoin-based art, and the ecosystem’s dynamism is maintaining its momentum thanks to platforms like Binance expanding their support.
