I definitely don't agree with petermccormack (npub1pre…eujk) on everything, but he did a great job in this interview of explaining what is also my position on ordinals/inscriptions: I just don't care. No, they aren't an attack on #Bitcoin (because the transactions follow the consensus rules), and it'd be impossible to block them anyway (at best you could make it harder or more expensive). Neither are they a good, useful technology, so I won't be putting my time or money into them.
I understand Rizzo's argument that this will make it even more obvious that there is zero need for other craptocurrencies on other blockchains, but I still don't care. We are headed in that direction long-term anyway, so I'd rather focus on building for use-cases that are actually useful and productive (like stablecoins and privacy tech), rather than helping speculators (if not outright scammers).
1 sat is 1 sat, anyone who says otherwise can HFSP. I'm here because our money is broken. Anything else is a distraction. Fix the money, fix the world.
