This is my favorite part… “Ordinals, a completely fictitious framework for identifying individual satoshis within utxos, have given people the ability to ascribe ownership claims to digital objects stored in blockspace.” “Ordinal theory not only promotes a collective delusion that individual satoshis exist (as opposed to being an abstraction used as a unit of account to measure the value of utxos), and that they can be identified and “attached” to arbitrary data in blocks.” View quoted note →

Why ordinals are dumb:: So you’ve created an NFT of the first few bitcoin magazine covers on bitcoin using ordinals…awesome, good for you. Someone else takes the same bitcoin magazine covers and makes an NFT on the Ethereum blockchain. Someone else then makes an NFT on both Cardano and Solana’s chains. Which is the real “NFT”??? Each think their record is the true record. Do you trust the bitcoin ordinal because it’s bitcoin? What if you found out that the original authors of the bitcoin magazine articles were the ones that created the ethereum NFT? Would you believe them? Would you take it to the courts to decide? Would you trust the US government to decide a “true record”? The real answer is none of them. The only thing that was scarce in the first place was the 1 sat that was used for the ordinal. #Bitcoin tries to be nothing but Bitcoin. By trying to be a distributed ledger for everything, the other chains succeed in nothing. They are so focused on being a computer for everything, they completely disregard the 1 thing that really matters. Digital scarcity of the coins themselves. But they couldn’t compete on that anyway, Bitcoin has POW, no insider ICO, the network effects, and the game theory…THERE IS NO SECOND BEST! So keep shitcoining, it’s the only way these other chains can make money to keep their vapor ware running. And ordinals on bitcoin are at best a fad and at worst a cash grab. PV🤙

🟠🟣 Have fun with your ordinals.
