The world of Bitcoin inscriptions continues to evolve, and we’re proud to be at the forefront of this innovation. Today, we’re excited to announce the integration of Atomicals (ARC-20) support on our Inscription Market, formerly known as the Ordinals Market. This enhancement significantly expands the range of token standards available for users to create, buy, sell, and trade digital assets—now with zero fees.
This strategic move reinforces our commitment to offering a comprehensive, user-driven platform where emerging blockchain technologies can thrive. By supporting Atomicals, we empower creators and collectors to explore new possibilities in digital ownership and decentralized asset management on the Bitcoin blockchain.
What Are Atomicals and ARC-20?
Atomicals, powered by the ARC-20 protocol, represent a next-generation approach to Bitcoin-based fungible tokens. Unlike traditional token standards that rely on separate blockchains or layer-2 solutions, ARC-20 leverages Bitcoin’s native architecture through a "colored coin" model. In this system, individual Satoshis—the smallest units of Bitcoin—are assigned unique identifiers to represent ownership of digital assets.
This means that each token unit in an ARC-20 inscription is directly tied to a specific Satoshi on the Bitcoin blockchain, ensuring immutability, transparency, and security. As a result, users gain full custody and verifiable provenance over their digital collectibles and tokenized assets.
Popular ARC-20 tokens already available on our marketplace include high-demand assets like Atom, Quark, and creative NFT collections such as TOOTHY and Capybaras—all now accessible for seamless trading with no transaction fees.

Expanding Ecosystem Support Across Wallet and Marketplace
Our support for Atomicals doesn’t stop at the marketplace. The integration follows recent upgrades to OKX Wallet, which now enables users to view, send, and receive ARC-20 inscriptions alongside other innovative standards like Stamps (SRC-20).
On March 12, we also introduced viewing and transfer capabilities for the Rune Alpha inscription standard—further demonstrating our dedication to early adoption and ecosystem expansion. Looking ahead, we plan to roll out support for Doginals (DRC-20) in the coming weeks, with Runes integration scheduled to follow after the upcoming Bitcoin halving event.
These developments position OKX Wallet as one of the most versatile self-custody solutions in the industry—supporting inscription minting across 23 major networks, including:
- Bitcoin
- Dogecoin
- Ethereum
- Polygon
- BNB Chain
- Avalanche-C
- Arbitrum One
And more.
Whether you're a developer building on emerging protocols or a collector curating rare digital artifacts, our tools are designed to give you maximum flexibility and control.
Why This Matters for Creators and Collectors
The introduction of Atomicals support opens up new creative and economic opportunities:
- For creators: Mint unique digital assets directly on Bitcoin with full ownership rights and no reliance on third-party platforms.
- For collectors: Access rare, limited-edition inscriptions with transparent lineage and built-in scarcity.
- For traders: Benefit from zero-fee trading across multiple token standards in a secure, non-custodial environment.
By unifying these capabilities under one ecosystem, we’re lowering barriers to entry and enabling broader participation in the decentralized digital economy.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is the difference between ARC-20 and other token standards like BRC-20?
A: While both are Bitcoin inscription standards, ARC-20 uses a colored coin model where individual Satoshis represent token units, offering more precise ownership tracking. BRC-20 relies on JSON-based data storage within transactions. ARC-20 supports richer metadata and improved scalability for fungible tokens.
Q: Is trading really free on the Inscription Market?
A: Yes. We offer zero-fee trading for all supported inscription types, including ARC-20, BRC-20, SRC-20, and more. Network-level miner fees may still apply depending on blockchain congestion.

A: Compatibility varies. However, OKX Wallet is among the first major wallets to offer full support for viewing and transferring ARC-20 assets, ensuring you maintain control over your inscriptions.

A: We plan to integrate Runes support shortly after the Bitcoin halving. Stay tuned to our official channels for updates.
