Non-monetary transactions do not belong. #BitcoinIsMoney

I’m not here to argue semantics — just to clarify a few things.

Spam on Bitcoin has always meant something pretty specific:

transactions designed to clog the network, avoid fees, or disrupt normal usage.

Ordinals don’t do that.

They use standard Bitcoin transactions.

They pay full fees up front when inscribed — and again when sold or transferred.

They feed miners, help build the fee market, and actually reinforce Bitcoin’s long-term security.

So putting all “non-monetary data” in the same category as spam doesn’t really hold up.

Bitcoin is evolving — and with it, our definition of money is too.

People are already using Bitcoin not just for payments,

but to anchor truth, culture, and proof — all timestamped, immutable, and paid for.

That’s not misuse.

That’s exactly what Bitcoin was built to support:

permissionless innovation, with real skin in the game.

Bitcoin isn’t just currency anymore.

It’s a full monetary protocol.

And that opens up a lot more than we imagined at the start.

This is my take on it.
