Why I keep using the ordinals "pooping in the mempool" analogy:

Off-label use.

Pools aren't for pooping. Bitcoin wasn't built for ordinal grifters.

There is no eCoNoMiC aRgUmEnT to be made justifying off-label use that exploits the ecosystem and its stakeholders.

Libertarian, voluntarist, and anarchists largely don't support actions that infringe others.

Don't let the VC-fueled scammers gaslight you.

Suppose terrorists actually used Bitcoin to avoid sanctions and counterterrorism efforts.

Bitcoin is built for enemies. Even stupid ones.

But it's built for enemies for intended use as p2p cash, SoV, unit of account.

I do not understand why some of the old guard dens refuse to admit ordinals is an externality; an exploit. Is it because it would diminish their status and future soft fork desires? nostr:npub1s3ej3q2q8sezpgsmmgfekemc0ur8p6z4ja38kzwapxutlj5md6hsh3jra8 is right on this one, and he INVENTED SegWit, arguably the reason Ordinals exist.
