A message from the founders:
Three years ago, something special happened on Bitcoin. The Ordinals protocol made it possible to create and trade digital assets with the permanence of storing data truly on-chain.
About 1 month after Ordinals went live, we launched OrdinalsBot as the first-ever inscription service on Bitcoin. We have been here since the start.
In these 3 years, we have achieved many great things and met amazing, like-minded people looking to bring new use cases to the mother chain and create a robust fee market.
Some things of note include helping countless people inscribe art and data on Bitcoin for the first time. The first BRC-20 token, ORDI, launched on our platform. We flawlessly deployed the Runestones airdrop, the largest (at the time) airdrop on Bitcoin to 112k addresses. We tokenized the Project Spartacus movement for Julian Assange, music for Ghostface Killah, art metadata for Michelangelo sculptures, and many more. We shipped rare sats tooling, a marketplace, and an ordinals launchpad. We were the main users of Mara's Slipstream service and inscribed most of the largest files on Bitcoin through them.
We are proud of what we built and would like to take this time to thank all of the people who built it with us.
That brings us to today. Unfortunately, the Ordinals market has contracted sharply over the past year. We tried everything from restructuring to pivoting, but sustaining the business is no longer viable.
We have, however, had interest in acquiring the OrdinalsBot brand, IP and assets. So, rather than let things drift, we have made the tough decision to wind down the company and put the full asset stack up for sale through an open, competitive process.
This includes the already established brand, all IP, domains, social accounts, Discord, GitHub, and 3+ years of R&D across over 90 code repositories. For any team looking to build on Bitcoin, acquiring this fully established infrastructure provides an immediate, battle-tested head start, potentially saving years of development from scratch.
We have already updated investors and have started receiving bids. If you are interested, or know someone who is, you can DM this account for the full information on how to bid.
Please be careful of anyone contacting you about this process. The only official contacts are @tobynovum and @bruffstar. If in doubt, DM them directly.
We will share more updates on this transition process as it unfolds.
Thank you again to our incredible community and users for building the future of Bitcoin with us.
