Binance officially launches “Inscription Market”
Bitcoin Ordinals has exploded in popularity in the past year. Due to the huge transaction demand behind it, it has become a market that major platforms are competing for. Today (1st), Binance, the leading exchange, announced the official launch of "Binance" "Inscription Market".
At the beginning of last year, software engineer Casey Rodarmor created the NFT protocol "Ordinals". This protocol allows users to attach various types of data such as pictures and text to the smallest unit of Bitcoin "Satoshi" in an "engraved" way. ”, so that each “Satoshi” can be unique, so it is considered like an NFT in the Bitcoin ecosystem. For example, the BRC-20 token, which has been widely welcomed by the community recently, is an inscription token minted through the Ordinal protocol on the Bitcoin blockchain.
However, the Bitcoin network does not support smart contracts. Unlike other blockchain networks, NFTs can automatically execute transactions and there is no trading platform support. Therefore, in the past, Bitcoin NFT transactions mostly relied on over-the-counter transactions. In the early stages of the protocol’s development, Google Sheet is even commonly used.
This time, Binance has added the Inscription Market function to the self-hosted wallet "Binance Web3 Wallet" built into the App, providing a one-stop platform for trading and minting Inscription tokens.
