Binance lists ORDI
Earlier Binance announced the listing of ORDI on its platform. The crypto community believed that the token belonged to the popular Ordinals project.
However, Ordinals creator Casey Rodarmore stated that the ORDI token has nothing to do with his project. He asked Binance representatives to remove all information from the asset listing announcement page.

The crypto exchange has relaunched ORDI data and removed all links referring to Ordinals. According to the announcement, ORDI is the first token created in accordance with the BRC-20 standard on the Bitcoin network.
Ordinals can record data in the smallest unit of Bitcoin (BTC) – Satoshi. Ordinals convert individual satoshis into non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and thus create a Bitcoin NFT. Unlike traditional Ethereum-based tokens, the service stores user content on-chain.
