making an inscription is a two-step process. first, you send bitcoin to the hash of a script. this creates an output in the utxoset

second, you spend that output revealing the script. this is the part that gets blocked by filtering, but it leaves the output created in step one forever stuck as a utxo

you can’t block step one unless you block the creation of every taproot output and that’s pretty absurd

These arnt getting blocked at all though are they? Only on at the individual Mempool level are these not being enabled and that should be celebrated

☹️ From Bitcoin the network or your own Mempool ? I think there’s a significant difference, and that difference is what often gets lost in this conversation unfortunately
