      About these prices

      Each point is one sale of tracked sats, found on chain by the fork: a marketplace listing or an accepted offer paid in the same transaction. Its price is the marketplace's: on Magisat the listing price, the seller's payment plus Magisat's 0.5% seller fee since September 2024 (the buyer's fee is not in it), and for an accepted Magisat offer the payment plus half the fee output; elsewhere the seller's payment plus the marketplace's fees. Sales with no marketplace fee in the transaction (OKX's, among others) are Unknown.

      The unit price is the price less the sold output's own value, per sat of a row. Each sale is of one row, the rarest that holds all the sats it sold, so rows don't overlap: Uncommon is plain uncommons (a 2012 uncommon is an Alpha uncommon, a rare sat a Rare), Block 9 is block 9 chunks (a 450x chunk is 450x). A bundle that mixes rows is of its rarest row. A label row, such as Block 9, 1st tx (a label within Block 9), has no market of its own: it lists the sales lying in it, each as its own row. Include rarer sub-categories also shows a row's rarer sub-categories, such as the alpha uncommons under Uncommon: lighter, priced per sat of the row, named by their own, and outside its median and market numbers. A sale that splits sats out of an output counts only the sats it sold. A sale for no more than the output's own value has no unit price above zero: it is in the table, not on the chart.

      The line is the row's median unit price over the 30 days up to each sale. Outliers, drawn hollow, sold for over 10 times or under a tenth of the median of the row's previous seven sales: a fat finger, a wash trade, something else in the output. They are left out of the line and the row's market numbers. Inscribed sats carry an inscription, whose value is not the rare sat's: hidden unless you include them, and never in the line.

      Extraction

      An extracted sat sits in an output a collector made for rare sats: small for what it holds, as the index's per-output value budget measures it.

      When an output counts as extracted

      Rare sats usually travel unnoticed inside ordinary outputs. A collector extracts them by moving them into outputs of their own. The index decides, per output, whether it is extracted:

      • it is spendable;
      • it was created by a block timestamped on or after 14 December 2022 (UTC), the date the index takes as the launch of ordinals;
      • its value is at most its budget: 10,000 sats for each individually tracked sat it holds, and, for each unbroken run of block 9 sats, the run's length plus 10,000.

      So a single rare sat in an output of 10,000 sats or less is extracted, and so is a pure block 9 chunk. A collector's output packing 100 rare sats into 33,000 sats is extracted too (its budget is 1,000,000), while an exchange output carrying two uncommons in a whole bitcoin is not (its budget is 20,000). The whole output is extracted or not, for every category it holds.

      What the numbers mean

      The Extracted column of the supply table counts a category's sats that sit in extracted outputs now. It is a current count, not a history: a sat moved from an extracted output back into a large one stops counting. For example, 250,736 of the 971,941 uncommon sats mined so far are extracted. A category's statistics list its top extracted holders apart from the non-extracted ones.

      Extract it yourself

      On your own address page, connect the wallet that holds it: Extract carves the rare sats of the UTXOs you pick into outputs of their own (330 sats each, 546 for a legacy or nested SegWit destination), sends them to your ordinals address, and leaves everything else where it was. Your wallet signs; the network fee and a flat tools fee come only from plain bitcoin of your payment address, never from the sats being extracted. The same is open to scripts: Extract rare sats.

      Notable extractions

      The Extractions feed lists the moment sats are isolated: an extracted output that received sats from an input that was not extracted. Moving sats between extracted outputs isolates nothing, so a collector consolidating their own extracted outputs into one bundle is not listed. An extraction is listed for early uncommon and black sats, alphas mined in January or February 2009, anything rarer, milestone alphas and omegas, 1D and 2D palindromes, perfect palinceptions, bounty3 names, any combination with a historic place (such as a Pizza alpha), and block 9 or 450x chunks above a minimum size; the feed's "Why notable?" gives the current thresholds. Extractions still in the mempool show first, marked pending.
