It already is in their crosshairs.
Going down is pretty much a done deal.
History repeats.
The majority of ordinal inscribers who have been around since May are Sparrow power users and know their way around a PSBT better than most WoS maxis.

Had to mute Udi and Eric as they are both annoying as fuck but to their credit they've onboarded so many people to bitcoin and will continue to in this cycle. Will they all stick around though?
Some of the discords I'm you are met with a wall of posts about how to run a full node. I've lost count of the people I've pushed to K3tan, RoninDojo and Umbrel.
People come for the "art" but many will be here for the revolution once they work out that stacking sats is the only art they need.
Plus, as a precious ICO degen myself, having that experience as a huge advantage. It really is the wild west all over again and the gains have been worth it so far. I'm sure many maxis will say I'll get rekt in the long run but for many I know, all profits just keep on going back to cold storage. There's a lot more well considered degens on there than people think.
Many hardcore maxis in 2023 were the ICO degens of 2016. It's all part of the Stove Touching Theory.
Slight disagreement with your theory. Everyone needs to touch the stove minimum of twice.
Art is totally subjective. That's what makes it art.
The movie is different this time. This one features node count going up, maxis committing suicide, usual traders getting rekt, ETHbois making the leap to The God Chain, security budget going parabolic, Odell winning his bet with Marty and some collectors amassing generational wealth.
I don't really see any downside to Ordinals. Anyone distracted by them wouldn't be in Bitcoin for the long term anyway but through this new breed of degens on bitcoin we all get to reap the above rewards.

Still not convinced on this little #bitcoin pumpy. Feels like the euphoria is just being breaking even. Wouldn't be a bad thing to dump hard and give people a dose of reality before we grind up to new ATHs in 2024.
Monero being my stablecoin as usual.
How the hell does Zach not know how many words are in the bip39 word list?
"about 1000, over 1000".
Ouch. Not a good look for the owner of a hardware wallet company who has chosen to go on a podcast (Chris Blec) about hardware wallet tech.
This is criticism and not an attack on Foundation Devices.

Not even for your life or an empty mempool.
I don't think anyone expected Ordinals to be 57% of transactions over the last 24hours making them bitcoin's number one use case. Annoying fact but at least mempools will never clear again 🤟
$ROUP mint is currently about 90% compete. Based out of China. Hopefully fees should starting dropping this afternoon UK time.
Hmmm. I think we're saying the same thing?
) Runes brings all the miscreants home to The God Chain.
2) Blockspace becomes more scarce as a result.
3) Miner win, plebs win.
4) People HAVE to use LN which is fair to say most don't have a need at present.
And how's the security budget looking under your future low blockspace demand? I'd say not very healthy at all. Bring on sustained high fee environments, bring on a need for L2 innovations as a result.
Hit it up for a second spin.
Realised there's always more to discover; it's akin to a Rubik's cube. Revisiting it unveils levels I had previously overlooked. My inability to fully grasp it the first time stems from an overload of podcasts. Cutting it back to BBB and RHR for the win.
The discussion on zombie-ism particularly resonated with me. It's challenging to view this topic positively, knowing that in most zombie stories, the odds are overwhelmingly against you, with allies flipping' on you and turning into adversaries quick as sticks. Overall a fascinating thought experiment unfolding in real-time.
Eager to hear Ben tackle the "Atlas Shrugged" series since I've found that book challenging. Big up to Max, nostr:npub1lt8nn8aaa6qa63wjwj8gz2djf5nlhg3zfd0v6l45v8zhvuyh0p3s5zzt5y, Q&A, and Rabbit – UK's standin' up tall in the fight for freedom.
Tears of a #bitcoin maxi
This is where it all started for me with Counterfeit Culture. Hxxdie bringing the pain for the laser eyes. Love to see it.
Ben Gunn and Max. Hands down.
Nothing that new in terms of topic but the energy and passion provides a really good way to focus your lens and provides confirmation that "we're doing it right".
Think I've shared that episode with about ten mates IRL and pleaded with them to give it a go.

I think the real shit-go is the endless capital generation from selling shares to fund his bitcoin bags. The antithesis of bitcoin. He's on rinse and repeat until his tower of Babel comes tumbling down and sends us all to goblin town for three years. 😂
Everyone buys bitcoin at the price they deserve right? That classic is scorched in to my memory and my family are sick of me saying it whenever they ask about the price and if it's a good time to buy bitcoin.
I'm relentless in my repetition of these words though. Unapologetic.
True words.
It's about creating a solid foundation where skills and resources are continuously developed. The emphasis on personal growth and skill enhancement is key – it not only prepares all of us for the challenges ahead but also contributes to the overall fortitude of the community (@`ODELL`... meshtadels?)
And yes, stacking relentlessly underscores the commitment to Bitcoin and its principles, reinforcing the network and solidifying our stance.
They'll not take me back to the fiat mines without a fight.
