Infrastructure for the 1-Sat Internet

Create anything.
Tokenize it on one sat.

OrdinalSource gives businesses and developers the APIs to create, fund, index, escrow, transfer, and resolve 1-sat digital assets — without forcing customers to touch crypto.

One infrastructure layer

Issuance, custody, indexing, transfer.

Build the experience your customers see. OrdinalSource handles the blockchain complexity underneath it.

◎

Keyed Access

Every issuance and custody call is authenticated per account, and each asset records the key that created it.

₿

Platform-Funded Sats

OrdinalSource supplies the satoshi and funds the on-chain transaction, so your users never hold coins.

◇

Smart Escrow

Provide an owner address at creation, or let OrdinalSource securely hold the asset until transfer.

⌘

Universal Index

Every OrdinalSource-created ordinal is resolvable by id, transaction, or owner through a consistent API.

Simple lifecycle

Mint now. Assign now — or later.

01Connect

Provision an API key for the account or organization.

02Create

Submit media, metadata, hashes, rights, or application data.

03Fund

OrdinalSource funds the network cost from its own platform balance.

04Own / Escrow

Send directly to a receiver address or hold in platform escrow.

05Resolve + Transfer

Query, verify ownership, claim, transfer, and integrate anywhere.

Developer API

One API. Many tokenized experiences.

Keep blockchain mechanics behind clean endpoints your applications already understand.
