I received three ordinal inscriptions in my bitcoin core wallet. First, I created a new wallet and created three bech32 segwit addresses. Each address received one ordinal inscription. Now I’d like to send them out to a new wallet but have no idea how. I tried to send one but since I didn’t think the fees would be enough I used two utxo for inputs and now I am afraid the ordinals utxo was used for fees instead the address with spare btc for fees.

DO NOT USE BITCOIN CORE TO SEND OR RECEIVE INSCRIPTIONS

Bitcoin Core is completely unaware of ordinals and inscriptions. It will not handle them correctly. The inscription you received at bc1p2pctjcj3nalkjmwmd78yezayx4sve4k3ddzflnmcrn0pe8qrq0sqgxkhnu is gone.

You can check on the status of your inscriptions by entering their addresses in this site and checking the activity: https://ordiscan.com

There are wallets designed for sending and receiving inscriptions. You must use one of those or you risk losing them.
