The advent of
Bitcoin Ordinals has given rise to a new class of wallets specifically designed to handle these unique digital assets. These ordinals wallets are essential tools for anyone looking to dive into the world of
Bitcoin NFTs, offering features tailored to their acquisition, storage, and trading. Let's explore some of the prominent ordinals wallets and their functionalities.
Magic Eden's Support for Ordinals Wallets
Magic Eden, a prominent platform in the Bitcoin Ordinals ecosystem, supports three key wallets for managing Bitcoin Ordinals:
Xverse: Known for its user-friendly interface, Xverse is a popular choice for Bitcoin Ordinals enthusiasts.
Hiro Wallet: A comprehensive wallet that supports both Stacks-based NFTs and Bitcoin Ordinals.
Unisat: Another option for those looking to manage their Ordinals efficiently.
When using these wallets on Magic Eden, you’ll typically have two distinct Bitcoin addresses: one for holding Bitcoin for purchases and another dedicated to Ordinals inscriptions and digital artifacts. Some wallets might also display two STX addresses, which are not essential for managing Ordinals.
Funding Your Ordinals Wallet
To start trading or minting Ordinals, your wallet must be funded with Bitcoin. The process usually involves purchasing Bitcoin from
cryptocurrency exchanges (CEXs) and transferring it to the Bitcoin RECEIVE wallet address in your Ordinals wallet. It’s crucial to remember not to send Bitcoin to the Ordinals address directly.
Minting and Trading with Ordinals Wallets
Minting on platforms like Magic Eden’s Ordinals Launchpad requires preparing your wallet, which usually involves confirming a pop-up prompt. Once prepared, you can mint Digital Artifacts by following the creator's instructions, which might include being on a whitelist or having public access. It's recommended to use a dedicated wallet for the minting process and to be patient, as Bitcoin transactions can take time to process.
Trading on the secondary m arket for Ordinals involves connecting your wallet to the platform, accessing your Bitcoin
Payments Wallet and Ordinals Wallet, and browsing your favorite collections to list or purchase digital artifacts.
Specific Wallet Features
-
Ordinals Wallet: Launched specifically for supporting Ordinals Inscriptions, this wallet allows users to receive, store, view, list for sale, and purchase Ordinals. It also supports Bitcoin Ordinals transfer capability for various addresses.
-
Xverse Wallet: Launched just before the Ordinals Wallet, Xverse removes the need for running a full Bitcoin node, making it easier for users to interact with the blockchain. It facilitates transactions within the app and supports in-app Bitcoin purchases using a fiat on-ramp service.

Hiro Wallet: Known for its expansive support for Stacks-based NFTs and Ordinal inscriptions, Hiro Wallet works similarly to Xverse, with Gamma handling the inscribing process. Ordinals are deposited directly into a user’s account under a “Collectibles” section.

Whether you're a beginner or an expert in the field, understanding how these wallets work and choosing the right one for your needs is essential for a seamless experience in the world of Bitcoin Ordinals.
