Ordinals Finance refers to financial activities and applications built upon the Ordinals protocol on the Bitcoin blockchain. The Ordinals protocol assigns a unique identifier to individual satoshis, the smallest unit of Bitcoin, allowing them to be inscribed with data such as images, text, or audio. This functionality enables the creation of non-fungible tokens and other digital artifacts directly on Bitcoin’s base layer. Ordinals Finance explores new ways to represent and trade unique digital assets within the Bitcoin ecosystem.

The long-term implications for Bitcoin’s economic model and its role in the broader digital asset market remain a key area of observation.
