Coins.ph is the First Philippine Exchange to Support BRC-20
MANILA, Philippines, Dec. 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Coins.ph, the country’s leading cryptocurrency platform, is the first Philippine exchange to bring BRC-20 token services to the local market, marking a significant milestone in the country’s digital asset landscape.
What is BRC-20?
BRC-20 is a technical standard for the minting and management of fungible tokens, including $ORDI, $VMPX, and $PEPE, on the Bitcoin blockchain. Fungible tokens are interchangeable and have equal value, making them ideal for representing assets such as cryptocurrencies, tokens, and even real-world assets like stocks or commodities.
BRC-20 differs from smart contract-dependent standards by utilizing ordinal inscriptions, which are data structures used to represent and manage tokens on the Bitcoin blockchain. This innovation enables seamless token creation and transfer without the need for complex smart contracts, thus enhancing efficiency and reducing cost.
A Milestone for the Country’s Digital Asset Landscape
Coins.ph is the first Philippine exchange to offer BRC-20 inscription services, a move that aligns with the company’s vision to provide Filipinos with greater access to digital asset services.
“This move signifies that Coins.ph is committed to being at the forefront of digital asset innovation,” said Wei Zhou, Coins.ph CEO. “BRC-20 has seen significant growth in activity since it launched earlier this year. We want to allow our users to participate in these opportunities whether it be through tokens like $ORDI which we recently listed, or other product offerings enabled by BRC-20,” he added.
In addition to listing $ORDI, a prominent BRC-20 token, Coins.ph is looking at expanding the range of BRC-20 tokens available on its platform as these have significant traction in the market due to their unique features and innovative use cases.
There are also plans to further bolster its BRC-20 offerings as Coins.ph aims to solidify its position as the leading provider of BRC-20 services in the Philippines, and empower its users with access to a suite of tokenized assets and innovative financial tools.
The introduction of BRC-20 inscription services represents a notable advancement in extending Bitcoin’s capabilities beyond its initial purpose as a digital currency. Coins.ph plans to pave the way for novel opportunities in digital asset ownership and management through the launch of BRC-20 services and the goal to expand on additional inscription services in the near future.

Bitrue expands Bitcoin Runes Offerings with GPTV Listing and Staking Options
VICTORIA, Seychelles, May 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Leading digital asset exchange Bitrue continues its community-driven approach with the listing of a new Bitcoin Runes token, GPTV•AI•PEPE•KING (GPTV). This follows the recent addition of several other Bitcoin Runes tokens to the platform, including SATOSHI•NAKAMOTO (SATOSHI), LOBO•THE•WOLF•PUP (LOBO), RSIC•GENESIS•RUNE (RSIC), and DOG•GO•TO•THE•MOON (DOG). Trading for the GPTV/USDT pair commenced on April 30th, 2024.
What is GPTV?
GPTV is the native token of AI PEPE KING, a project claiming to be the “largest AI Meme Community” with a presence on both the Polygon (AIPEPE) and Bitcoin Runes (GPTV) blockchains. Notably, AI PEPE KING secured a $10 million investment to develop AI-powered customer service tools leveraging the ChatGPT technology. Additionally, they are building a “Dream Lottery” system. Revenue generated from these products is earmarked for buybacks and burns of both AIPEPE and GPTV tokens, potentially influencing their long-term value.
Staking Opportunities with Attractive Yields
Bitrue is also offering users staking opportunities for those holding BTR, AIPEPE, RSIC, or DOG tokens. By staking their holdings, users can earn rewards in GPTV, with estimated annual percentage yield (APY) varying on the staked token, with BTR offering 22.15%, AIPEPE at 23.18%, RSIC boasting a higher 31.37%, and DOG coming in at 23.62%. These yields present a potentially lucrative opportunity for users to grow their cryptocurrency holdings, but also come with financial risk and the potential for investment to return much lower yields.
Bitrue’s Focus on Community Engagement
The listing of these Bitcoin Runes tokens is a testament to Bitrue’s commitment to its user base. The decision to add these tokens stemmed from a community poll conducted through an X poll on Bitrue’s X account. This highlights the exchange’s dedication to incorporating community feedback into its decision-making process, fostering a sense of collaboration and shared interest.
With the addition of GPTV and the introduction of staking opportunities, Bitrue continues to expand its offerings for users interested in the burgeoning world of Bitcoin Runes tokens. The exchange’s focus on community engagement further strengthens its position as a platform that prioritizes user input and satisfaction.
