Last night, my “zeroed-out” account moved



Just before 12, my phone popped up a notification: $ORDI is up 40%.

My first reaction was that the app was broken. I hadn’t opened this coin in almost a year.

Back when inscriptions were all the rage in 2023, a friend stayed up all night to grab the whitelist. With a few thousand ORDI, the cost was nearly zero. Later, when it climbed to $90, he used it to pay off his hometown mortgage. Then it fell to $2—a 97% drop. In the group chat, no one mentioned the words “inscriptions” anymore.

I chased it a bit too. I lost so much that I couldn’t even be bothered to sell, so I just threw it into my wallet as a keepsake—like that broken-screen phone in the back of a drawer. I knew it was there, but I never thought it could turn on again.

But last night, it turned on.

On April 16, ORDI surged from $2.55 to $5.23—doubled. But it wasn’t bought up slowly—short positions got liquidated over 24 hours totaling $3.31 million, and at one point the long-to-short ratio was 10:1. The people who were short got steamrolled and liquidated one candle at a time, burying themselves.

$ORDI has no project team, no VC. All 21 million tokens were minted entirely by the community itself. What is it worth? It’s worth nothing more than “a bunch of people still believe in it.”

My friend sent me a message: “Did you see it?”
