The OrdinalsBot API is Powering the Ordinals Ecosystem

Our API is powering inscription of the most prominent and innovative projects in the space. In this article we explore what our API can be used for, some use cases, and how you can get started.

Why OrdinalsBot API Is Your Project’s Best Partner?

While we have made the process incredibly easy on our website, we understand that projects might want to embed the inscription process into their user experiences and products. Therefore, we have created our API service. With the API, you can create, manage, and track inscription orders, pay with Lightning or on-chain Bitcoin, and receive inscriptions on specified addresses.

Whether you’re looking to store files, texts, or images securely on the blockchain, the OrdinalsBot API provides seamless access to these features. Our API allows to inscribe up to a 10,000 files per order, efficiently optimise images for size, and tailor fees to match your preferences.

But why use our API?

• Our API service provides a scalable, proven, and robust infrastructure that has processed hundreds of thousands of inscriptions.
• We have a built-in payments flow that supports accepting payments for inscriptions in both lightning and on-chain bitcoin.
• Additionally, we offer support for inscribing onto rare sats from our inventory.
• You’ll earn a percentage of the service fee (currently 15%), a percentage of the rare sats fee (currently 15%), and you’ll have the option to add an additional fee as well.
• Our dedicated support team is ready to assist with any queries during the API on-boarding process and throughout its usage.
• Setting it up is a breeze, and it has become even more seamless with the launch of our SDK.

Ordinal Cubes is a permissionless art project, anyone can create an on-chain gallery, displaying existing images from the Bitcoin blockchain. The images are visualised as a 3D cube, which looks cool and holds the viewer’s attention for a longer time. The created ordinals use recursive inscriptions heavily, so the cost of an inscription for each cube is very affordable.

Testimonial:
“I didn’t want to create an art collection where all works are already known at the beginning. Therefore, it was my goal that all parameters for the mint can be entered by the collector — inspired by fx(params). But the effort involved in running a dedicated instance of ord is high, and I wanted to invest my energy in an engaging website instead. Using the OrdinalsBot API, it took me only a week to go from the initial idea to a first version of the website. This is awesome.”

On Choosing OrdinalsBot:
“We looked at all the API providers for inscriptions. With each solution, We felt something was missing, so we reached out. The team at OrdinalsBot responded quickly and friendly, and they even implemented our request directly. That won us over. We’ve been satisfied ever since.”
