Bitcoin Ordinals and Runes supporters have renewed calls for native trading on OpenSea after Leonidas shared a comment attributed to a company marketer saying community feedback helps shape its product roadmap.<\/p>\n
\n Summary<\/span>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Leonidas, in posts dated Oct. 21 and Oct. 22, urged collectors to make their interest known and directly asked OpenSea to support both asset types. His posts included an image of Bitcoin collections displayed in an OpenSea interface and a separate promotional graphic imagining trading support.<\/p>\n \u201cPlease add support for Ordinals and Runes.\u201d<\/p>\n The request establishes a public campaign for integration. Neither screenshot contains an official OpenSea announcement confirming native Bitcoin trading, an approved integration, or a release date.<\/p>\n In his Oct. 21 post<\/a>, Leonidas reproduced a statement attributed to an OpenSea marketer encouraging people who want Ordinals to keep asking for them. The quoted statement said community feedback \u201cvery much directly informs our product roadmap.\u201d<\/p>\n The screenshot does not include the original recording or the full conversation surrounding the remark. Its wording describes how feedback informs product decisions without promising that Bitcoin support has been scheduled.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Alongside the statement, Leonidas shared an interface showing Runestone in a featured position. Bitcoin Puppets and NodeMonkes appeared under a section labeled \u201cTrending Ordinals Collections,\u201d alongside Bitcoin Wizards and Taproot Wizards.<\/p>\n The image displays collection prices in BTC and includes activity figures, but it does not show a completed purchase or a Bitcoin transaction. Collection visibility in that screenshot therefore remains separate from evidence of an available trading service.<\/p>\n A second post, dated Oct. 22, paired the direct request with an OpenSea-branded graphic reading \u201cOrdinals and Runes trading is live!\u201d Because Leonidas published the image while asking for support, the graphic cannot be treated as a company launch notice.<\/p>\n OpenSea\u2019s blockchain compatibility guide lists networks including Ethereum, Solana, Polygon and Arbitrum, without listing Bitcoin. Its older Ordinals explainer, published in April 2023, explicitly says users cannot buy Bitcoin Ordinals through OpenSea; that page is historical documentation, not a fresh roadmap statement.<\/p>\n OpenSea\u2019s Oct. 20 mobile announcement<\/a> describes an app available to everyone on iOS and Android, with token and collectible trading across more than 25 blockchains. The company says users can combine holdings from multiple wallets and synchronize their accounts with its web platform.<\/p>\n The launch description distinguishes trading from discovery features. OpenSea says its social feed displays activity from people a user follows regardless of the app or chain where their trades occurred, while a separate feature shows trending activity by chain.<\/p>\n For the mobile product, the company lists a 0.5% fee on token trades and a 1% fee on collectible purchases, with network fees potentially charged separately. The announcement does not identify a Bitcoin-specific trading rollout.<\/p>\n The company\u2019s earlier OS2 announcement, issued in Miami in May 2025, introduced full token trading across 19 chains, including Solana fungible tokens. OpenSea identified Miami as its headquarters and said further chain integrations were part of its development plans, without naming a Bitcoin launch date.<\/p>\n The appeal follows several earlier announcements affecting Bitcoin asset services. In February, crypto.news previously reported Magic Eden\u2019s planned Bitcoin marketplace exit<\/a>, alongside the closure of its EVM marketplaces and multichain wallet. That announcement retained support for its Solana business.<\/p>\n Magic Eden had launched Ordinals trading<\/a> in March 2023. At launch, the marketplace supported secondary sales and said it was investigating tools for creators to inscribe assets, while royalty support remained unavailable.<\/p>\n A separate May announcement set June 1 as the shutdown date for Ord.io and Zap<\/a>. Leonidas attributed the decision to exhausted funding, while the associated trading app said it had not reached the user growth needed to continue operating.<\/p>\n Other operators announced new services during the same period. Unspendable Labs said on March 30 that Horizon Market had added Ordinal inscriptions alongside Counterparty assets and Bitcoin Stamps. Its announcement<\/a> described inscription creation, listings, and purchases settling directly on Bitcoin, without an intermediary holding the assets.<\/p>\n\n\n
