A new website called Ordinals Scrapyard enables users to see exactly how much money they have lost to buy inscriptions – and to harvest the losses for tax reporting purposes.
The site is an embarrassing book support for a series of stories about the theory that ordinals can bring NFT trade into Bitcoin’s blockchain, despite its popularity on other chains such as Ethereum and Solana.
Although he was announced at the beginning of 2023 by Bitcoin developer Casey Rodarmor as a Bitcoin-Native Protocol for mivesting, buying and selling collective objects, the floor price of most inscriptions has now fallen to $ 0.001.
Indeed, prior to the launch of the website, most inscriptions had no bid and the vast majority of buyers kept their NFTs once and now and now bought couldn’t resell them.
Ord, a centrally maintained and off-chain record position, each sub-unit of each bitcoin (BTC) tried to figure out chronologically.
By following this Satoshis or “SATs”, each worth 1/100 millionth of one BTC, the traders of the ordinals were able to register SATs and pass on with numismatic value because of the extra data they have added.
On their speculative peak, certain inscriptions traded for more than $ 1 million. Most are now only the sat worth on which they are registered.

The Gimmick tax care in the service of the Scrapyard of the Ordinals is comparable to that of a company founded in 2011, et Brutus.
ET Brutus is a tax care service, launched to help investors with failed investments to prove the tax authorities that they have actually sold it for a loss of 99.9%.
The company pays exactly $ 1 for someone’s shares, notes, justifying, safe, escrow or profit. In addition to a service costs of $ 35, the sales can help tax monitors to report an almost total loss to reduce the power gain on other profitable investments.
Likewise, Ordinals Scrapyard pays exactly 1 Sat or $ 0.001 for an inscription.
Just like ET Brutus, ordinals Scrapyard also adds inscriptions plus a service costs of 1,000 SATs to complete the transaction.
The will be community laughed at the new service offer.
“I thought this was a joke, but ordinal gamblers are really that bad,” someone noted. Senior Bitcoin developer Peter Todd also thought the website was hilarious.
