TL;DR: 3DOrdi and Zoide.io, two platforms for creating, viewing, and trading 1Sat Ordinals on BSV, announced a formal strategic collaboration on September 30. The agreement keeps both projects independent, but gives their users and creators a more connected market across Europe and the Americas.

Key Takeaways:

  • 3DOrdi and Zoide.io announced a strategic collaboration on September 30, 2026.
  • The projects say the agreement formalizes a shared commitment to growth, accountability, and long-term sustainability.
  • The announcement says both platforms remain independent and does not disclose financial terms.
  • Creators can use the same wallet across both apps, launch a collection through a Zoide auction, and later add items to it in 3DOrdi.
  • A Collections Carousel displays cover art for collections created on Zoide and 3DOrdi.
  • Items listed for sale can be shared across both marketplaces, giving creators exposure to more collectors.
  • Users retain control of their Ordinals wallet on their own device while using features in either app.
  • The two development teams also discuss technical changes privately, including the recent move to Ord Lock v2.

3DOrdi and Zoide.io, two platforms for creating and exchanging NFTs using BSV’s 1Sat Ordinals tokens, have formed a strategic collaboration to provide creators and collectors with a more connected trading environment.

According to the companies’ joint announcement on September 30, the agreement brings together two independently established projects under a common strategic framework. Zoide.io is headquartered in Europe, while 3DOrdi‘s home is in the Americas, giving the partnership a transatlantic presence. The projects said the arrangement does not alter their independence, and did not disclose financial terms.

They noted the deal is a sign that the BSV Ordinals ecosystem is maturing. For users, though, the more useful aspect is that the two apps already work together in practical ways, since they’re built around the same 1Sat Ordinals protocol.

1Sat Ordinals embed token data and contract logic into individual satoshis. That lets compatible apps read the same on-chain assets rather than keeping separate inventories of user collections.

“The interoperability of the 1Sat Ordinals protocol, which enables data sharing between applications, allowed us to begin collaborating even before the agreement was signed,” 3DOrdi developer Jorge Pelaez told CoinGeek.

“One feature that creators on 3DOrdi particularly appreciate is the Collections Carousel, displaying the cover art for the collections they have created in Zoide as well as 3DOrdi.”

That interoperability means creators don’t have to choose one platform and stay there. They can use the same (non-custodial) wallet for both apps and treat them as different windows into the same on-chain assets.

“For instance, by using the same wallet across both apps, they can launch a new collection via an auction on Zoide, and later add items to that collection in 3DOrdi; the creator retains full control, as they hold ownership of the collection’s cover,” Pelaez said.

Different apps, same wallet

The two platforms have their own different strengths. Zoide.io presents itself as a marketplace for numbered digital art pieces on BSV, with 30-second signups and a wallet generated in the user’s browser. Its site says users’ keys never leave the browser, and that anything bought on Zoide can leave the platform whenever the user wants.

3DOrdi focuses more on immersive galleries, 3D and AR model visualization, and tools for exploring, managing, and creating/inscribing Ordinals. CoinGeek looked at its broader feature set in January, including its creator royalty model, micropayments for likes and messages, and support for interactive HTML and 3D content.

In February, we also covered 3DOrdi’s “steganordinals” experiment, which lets creators hide a secret image on the back of a two-sided digital card.

Because the underlying Ordinals remain in the user’s wallet, each platform can add features without locking the assets inside its own system.

“A tangible benefit for users is that features missing in one application can be accessed through the other, all while maintaining complete control over their Ordinals wallet directly from their own device, while each app continues to develop its own independent product vision,” Pelaez said.

“Or, when they list an item from their creations for sale, it is shared across both marketplaces, providing exposure to a larger base of potential digital art collectors.”

This isn’t entirely new territory for the projects. When we first covered 3DOrdi in January, Pelaez said a token listed for sale on 3DOrdi could be purchased on Zoide or another compatible marketplace, and vice versa. The new agreement makes that working relationship official.

Artistic experiments and technical coordination

Pelaez said the shared wallet and collection features have already produced some unexpected creative results.

“I have witnessed an unexpected form of artistic experimentation; for instance, works have been created on 3DOrdi that reference other pieces originally inscribed using Zoide, or items have been purchased on 3DOrdi from an external collectibles marketplace; all thanks to its gallery and collection exploration features,” he said.

The partnership also gives the two development teams a direct line to each other when the underlying technology changes. Pelaez pointed to the recent adaptation to Ord Lock v2 as one example.

“Behind the scenes, complex issues, such as the recent adaptation to Ord Lock v2, can be discussed between the two development teams, which significantly reduces the time required for such adjustments,” he said.

“If we were to face these challenges alone, it would take us much longer; discussing these technical hurdles privately ultimately benefits the end users.”

The announcement itself talks about shared values, accountability, and long-term sustainability. Those are the kinds of claims partnerships always make, and time will tell how much of that turns into user growth. For now, the immediate benefit is more concrete: two apps that already interoperate are making the relationship official, and their developers are talking to each other before technical changes become user problems.
