Ordinal Inscribers are now paying Bitcoin mining pools to construct blocks for them with zero or minimal financial transactions, so that all of their images get inscribed in sequential order. They are not using the normal block construction methods. They are including these in the next block over the counter or behind closed doors. This has happened 3 times so far with 3 different pools. Luxor, Foundry, and the latest one was from Terra Pool. These out of band blocks are creating a secondary marketplace outside of Bitcoin's normal block construction methods. Miners are now talking about selling blocks before they are found. Thoughts?
I bet they'll start losing hash if they continue to go out of band.

that's my hope. im hearing in a Space right now that a small pool that does about 1% of hash is looking into doing this. the guy won't say which pool though.
I really hope Braiins doesn’t get into this… I love them.
