I'm in a Ordinal Twitter Space at the moment and they're discussing increasing the block size. Their motives are showing.

Link? I’m feeling masochistic and want to listen in 😂

Thanks 🙏

I wonder what percentage of total Bitcoin node runners also use ordinals

I would guess around 1%. And it's not enough of an economic block to affect any meaningful change. Larger than the ordisrespector cult, but still not huge.

I currently run 5 full nodes. I have 2 inscriptions I made testing out and documenting how things work back in February to be able to use Sparrow and Bitcoin Core CLI to work with inscriptions. I directly helped 6 newcomers setup nodes, which was a requirement to create ordinals at the beginning. You must have Bitcoin core 24.0.1 to use the ordinals client so that's also a limiting factor.

The degens don't really setup nodes and keep running. The stuff being made now isn't being created for or sold/dumped on people that run nodes, it's for speculators that still don't understand what theyve got. Weird way to shift wealth from weak hands to strong hands but history is full of more stupid choices than good ones.

“I currently run 5 full nodes.”

That fucking rocks 🤙🤙🤙

right. back in february i helped roughly 2 dozen of them setup full nodes. now with ordinal wallet, they don't need full nodes. they aren't running them any longer. they don't need it and nor do they care about doing it. it was a nice thought. i had hoped they would stick it out.

May take multiple touches. They haven't seen the value of running your own node. Before they did it because they had to in order to create. We need to work on the economic angle of self verification and sovereignty. Get them out of the trust mindset.

So cringe 😬

It sure is

Same story, different cycle. History doesn’t repeat, it rhymes.

There it is. Classic shitcoiner playbook.

LOL. Remember when we were being told it was a good thing ordinal retards were now running their own nodes? The pieces are moving into position.

i thought it was. i said this over and over again. they don't care about running a full node any longer as their ordinal wallet doesn't require them to do so. oh well. i did my best to orange pill'em.

They can fork off

Hard

I wonder how many more of this will happen. I am all for it, bring it on and fork off, increase your block size. More sats for us as we exchange degen big block fork coins for real bitcoin

пусть делают вилку и живут спокойно!))) Они не знают что такое биткоин))))

Lol. There's really no need to increase blocksize anytime soon. While I'm not opposed to it in time, based more on global network build out, for the time being I'd prefer a block size decrease.

что у тебя с математикой? максимум блоков что можно сделать, это время займет 20000блоков))) все...

Bag of dicks.

Couldn't care less about those degens. Let them fork off and the holders will get a dividend to buy more Bitcoin. My Node will reject their BS forever.

идиоты)))) они не понимают чтоли? пусть будет вилка...

they can fork off, we don't need to, comrade.

Для этого придется сделать хард форк, который будет как биткоин кэш) хотя он есть!) так что это не имеет значения)))) досвидания....

the Ordinal folks could fork if they want larger blocksizes. we don't need to do anything but keep doing what we're doing now.

Exactly. Just fork it & we'll laugh again when the value of their shitcoin plummets to 0 against #Bitcoin

Why don't they just use BCH..

the ordinal wallet people are BSVers 😉

🫤

What a surprise, BSV had attracted this kind of thinking about bitcoin for a very long time. Why to go back to the "much hated" BTC if they already have the "superior" BSV though? So now they are going to loose their money again, right? I'm ok with that.

Ugh yeah

Oh man.

I want to have a system where fees are cheap and convenient for plebs to use L1 occasionally. I think it's important.

Increasing the blocksize is the last resort, but making L1 inaccessible for plebs seems counterintuitive to what Satoshi was trying to create.

i don't mind higher fees onchain. it will come in due time. onchain will eventually be used by whales and financial institutions as a global settlement layer. us plebs will be chilling on L2 and L3 solutions.

Yeah. It seems that way.

Seems like a loss, or concession you know?

Esp when L2 options are so complicated.

I also think Core needs an upgrade to sort out the network being clogged by ordinals.

This is making the system inaccessible to those who need it the most.

🤮

They must have missed the block wars a couple cycles ago. 👀

Do they know Bcash exists? 🤣

😆 fools plotting

Let them eat fork.
