ORDI Token Soars 35% Amid Crypto Rally and Ordinals Protocol Activity
The price of ORDI, a Bitcoin-based BRC-20 token, surged by 35% on Tuesday as part of a broader crypto rally and increased activity related to the Ordinals protocol. Over the past month, the token has risen by more than 700%, reaching $63.82 at 3:04 p.m. ET.
Record High and Market Cap
At one point on Tuesday, ORDI reached an all-time high of around $65. Currently, its market cap stands at $1.3 billion.
Bitcoin-Based Tokens
Bitcoin-based tokens are still relatively new, with the Ordinals mechanism paving the way for the development of both fungible (like BRC-20) and non-fungible tokens that often showcase digital art.
Rebound in Activity
In October, Ordinals trading decreased significantly after peaking the previous month. However, activity rebounded following Binance’s announcement of listing ORDI. Binance Pool also launched the Ordinals Inscription Service in August, making it easier for users to add additional data to the Bitcoin blockchain.
Growth of Bitcoin Development
Bitcoin development has been gaining momentum throughout the year, with various projects like Taproot Wizards and Outlier Ventures accelerator program focusing on Bitcoin. These initiatives aim to expand and enhance the capabilities of the Bitcoin network.
