I don't like inscriptions either but I'm not sure if Ocean's policy isn't going to backfire on them.

As much as I hate inscriptions I hate censorship more. Start censoring something that is fundamentally a true waste of resources and sooner than later, real economically viable transactions are also being censored for "insert reason 'X' here".

Sad to see this occur right out of the gates.

inscriptions shouldn't be censored. Let those guys spend their sats on their jpgs. It's a redistribution of wealth. Not like they can print their own BTC

It is not yet entirely clear whether this news is true at all. This still needs to be put through its paces.

Decentralized and then they are accused of this right off the bat. You can't be advocating freedom but then go and censor something you don't like. Freedom of speech includes hate speech.

Not great.

I kind of think they should have floated it as a “this is an option: we are going to censor ordinals and let the market of miners decide if they want to help us or not”.
