Ordinals Ordhook Overview

Ordhook enables you to build ordinals event streams, so you can create accurate, lightweight databases that gracefully handle Bitcoin forks and reorgs.


Ordhook is a reorg-aware indexer that automatically handles chain forks, so you don’t need to waste time or resources reindexing your database yourself.

With a familiar event-driven framework, you can customize what ordinals data you index in order to create lightweight databases for faster query responses and a better user experience.

Create event streams

  • Ordinals API: Skip the infrastructure setup and get the ordinals data you need from our Ordinals API, which is powered by Ordhook.
  • Ordinals Explorer: Explore ordinals inscriptions and BRC-20 tokens rapidly in our Ordinals Explorer.
