Ordinal Theory is a novel concept developed by ex-Bitcoin core contributor Casey Rodarmor that ascribes a unique, ordered numerical identifier to each sat (lowest denomination of bitcoin) on the Bitcoin blockchain. Applying a unique number to each sat allows them to be tracked and transferred individually.
Ordered sats can be shown as an integer, decimal, degree, percentile, or with an alphanumeric name.
As each sat has an identifier with Ordinal Theory, some sats will have different providence than others.
