Furthermore Santiment’s metric showed a downward trend in January but an upward trend setting in during February resulting in a measure higher than what was seen in the better parts of January.

Price Impact

Despite this increased activity from Ordinal projects, it hasn’t been able to significantly affect BTC’s price which currently stands at about $21,700 despite being around $22k just weeks ago.

Conclusion

Overall there have been positive signs for Bitcoin as seen by its increasing active address count along with other metrics being positively impacted by new NFT projects such as Ordinals which have added more use cases to the king coin beyond peer-to-peer payments for first time since its inception 14 years ago. Despite this however BTC’s price still remains relatively low and hasn’t been significantly affected yet though this may likely change soon enough if more projects like these keep popping up regularly within crypto space.
