Let me add that “It takes 20 mins to circumvent any ‘fix’” is plainly not true. Bitcoin existed for 13 years without Ordinals or BRC-20 tokens, which became possible only after Taproot’s features were added.
#Bitcoin was invented to be a digital currency. The Ordinals/BRC-20 enthusiasts are usurping the network for a different purpose. In the process of doing that, they’ve made its intended use more expensive and therefore less attractive in comparison to alternatives. If Pepe coin or JPEG collectors want to pay for their tokens with Bitcoin, fine. It would be censorship to stop them. That doesn’t mean we need to allow them to save their purchases on the Bitcoin blockchain.
I hope you’re right, but if meme coin speculators have only so much capital, shouldn’t they have lost it all on the Ethereum network by now?
I’ve used it, but not for #Bitcoin. Received payments go to a CashApp balance. Transferring money to a linked bank account either takes days or, if you pay a fee, seconds. The same as PayPal.
I’ll zap you later. My lightning wallet at #[2] has been waiting more than a day for an on-chain top-up. 😕
What do GNOME’s developers *want* you to do instead of minimizing, to get windows out of the way? Move them into a different virtual desktop?
Is that inevitable? There are other cryptocurrencies. If Bitcoin can’t keep NFT and dogcoin enthusiasts from driving up transaction costs, people who just want digital money will look elsewhere.
I’m catching up with how Ordinals work. This seems relevant:
“Inscription content is entirely on-chain, stored in taproot script-path spend scripts. Taproot scripts have very few restrictions on their content, and additionally receive the witness discount, making inscription content storage relatively economical.”
No, but he does like to drink from the bathroom sink’s faucet. I tried a couple of different cat fountains on him, but he wants the faucet.
The app developer can be liable if someone uses it to transmit illicit content? I’ve never heard of the developer of a web browser or SFTP client being sued for that.
Is Robert Kennedy the least tyrannical candidate? He’s called for jailing “climate deniers” and shutting down corporations and think tanks who disagree with him.
That is what the voluntaryists argue. I’m not convinced that casting a vote endorses the legitimacy of the government when the government doesn’t allow you to exit. The reason I don’t vote is because it’s an action that has no effect.
“One thing such filmmakers hope you never do is go back and read the original newspaper accounts, because what you tend to discover is that almost nothing particularly interesting happened — until later years festooned the facts with embellishments.”
Thank you, #[1] !
