Bitcoin Ordinals and Runes platform OrdinalsBot has created the largest Ordinals inscription to date, weighing in at 3,969 megabytes. That inscription number 70,614,708 that the OrdinalsBot team announced on Friday is a copy of Logos Network 's "A Declaration of Independence in Cyberspace."
OrdinalsBot co-founder Brian Laughlan says that the size of the inscription has less to do with the length of the document and more to do with publishing the document as a quality image large and clear enough to read. .
This isn't the first time in recent months that we've seen Ordinals inscription size records broken, but those records are relatively small and don't have much room to grow due to restrictions. mechanism of the Bitcoin chain . In this case, the new record inscription is only 0.001MB larger than the previous record in March.

Storage capacity on the Bitcoin chain was upgraded in 2017. The Segregated Witness (SegWit) update pushed the previous maximum 1 megabyte size of a Bitcoin block to 4MB. Attempts to score anything larger will fail.
After the Ordinals protocol was launched in January 2023, OrdinalsBot came online as a way to satisfy the demand of Bitcoin enthusiasts who wanted to participate in the new craze. Last March, the OrdinalsBot platform was used to record a version of French rapper Montana's Ordinals , followed by another Non-Fungible Token track from Wu-Tang Klan's Ghostface Killah in April.
It's free and open Mint, like what @deezy_inc did for @BitcoinFrogs . @ordinalsbot guys will launch a lazy Mint page in about one week for me.

For large inscription projects like the Logos Network Declaration and the 3,968MB Runestone inscription from March, OrdinalsBot worked with BTC miners like Marathon Digital to add larger amounts of data to a block on Bitcoin. In this case, the total block is 3.99 MB and almost the entire block is occupied by the Logos inscription.

“We and the engineers at Marathon are among the best Bitcoin developers in the world,” said OrdinalsBot co-founder Toby Lewis. XEM them work, especially when operating on the largest block, feels like historic moments are being created every day. They are testing parameters and tweaking tools, because no one really knows what will work. But the phase from testnet to production is truly an extremely exciting moment.”
Boasting over 200,000 users on its platform, OrdinalsBot claims it has contributed to the creation of 8 of the 10 largest files ever recorded on Bitcoin, including Runestone, the Ordz Games inscription for the BitBoy gaming console One and Inscribe Pepes.
OrdinalsBot also provides backend support for Magic Eden's engraving services. In April, OrdinalsBot launched the Trio Ordinals utility token using the BRC-20 Bitcoin token standard.
