For those tinkering with Runes. Remember that there is no spec and what goes live if/when there is one is likely to look very different and be incompatible with our current experiments. If you are encouraging people to ape in without a disclaimer, stop being a bad actor.

@SethAbramson Weird how the truth is missing so much information.. Tesla paid for the supplies that would have been used for their order (no monetary losses), has two other events they have requested pies for, and have provided better marketing than the business could have afforded otherwise.

My takeaways from the @DeGodsNFT sale: People are EXCITED!! Some users need a lesson on how fees work on Bitcoin The process chosen is 99.43% better than Yuga's I wouldn't call it perfect, but it exceeded my expectations and pushes the ecosystem in the right direction.

Doing some digging through our collective bitcoin history today. Just wanted to share this gem by "ultrasonicsite" from bitcointalk in July 2010

Can confirm that it was a fantastic week for the most magical team in Bitcoin. We didn't even lose any important keys this week (yet)!

I would rather people say things I disagree with if it means we don't undermine freedom of speech. I would rather a criminal walk free if it means not locking away an innocent. I will always err on the side of freedom as it is the only reasonable path away from a dystopian future

Doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that there is some form of manipulation happening when the US Government sells cryptocurrency for an asset that they have no problem printing more of. The best question to be asking is, "who profited from the artificial increase in volume?"

I told literally anyone who would listen that the Yuga auction would set us back by establishing a precedent of doing unsafe/trustful things that would then be duplicated by less reputable entities. To those who acted like I was being unfairly paranoid, "I told you so."

Here's how their mint process look : They basically give you an address and you have to send them money directly. After that you have to dm the artist with your tx id and your address.

@Richard_Lee_BA @robin_linus @gladstein @brian_trollz Let's start with some very generous assumptions of 4k TX/block and 144 blocks/d. This gives us 576k TX/d. If we onboard the world (the professed goal of many) the network can support each person making one (simple) transaction every 39.1 years. That's unfair though, so let's

For those that can't do basic math, this is RBF, this example transaction has an effective fee rate of apx. 600 sats per vByte. So economical, much wow. Or you could just RBF to 86 sats/vByte. This would save you money and not require out of band payments.

In case you missed it at the open source stage at #Bitcoin2023 - here's a demo of our upcoming Mempool Accelerator™️ service confirming a 1 sat/vByte transaction from @_k3tan within 3 minutes, despite next block estimate being 88 sat/vByte

@nonfungible_jan @billyrestey Did I miss some context? 400vkB standardness limit 4vMB consensus limit 21M * 100M * 4vMB = apx 72.5 million YB Until we get enough people onboard with reinscription, there is an upper limit.. We just won't ever reach it.

@TO The issue with BRC-20 is the choice of data format, the cavalier disregard for easy optimizations, and a community that is shilling them to a bunch of "exit liquidity" that lacks the knowledge/tools to safely engage with it. I agree with the closing remarks optimism though!

If you have launched a service/product that uses ordinals/inscriptions and are still using as your source of truth instead of building your own infra, you have failed, but we can fix that! Lots of us out here who are happy to help you get your node setup.

If Bitcoin's consensus rules support what you are doing, have a great time. Notice that I didn't try to claim any right to permission your actions. I will flame you on Twitter and setup my node how I see fit, but the network shouldn't (and luckily doesn't) care if I agree.

I don't say it enough, but this is EXACTLY how things should be done in this industry. It is impossible to do it 'perfectly' upfront, but doing the best you can (within reason) and having a clearly defined path forward is how we get to a future with excellent tools.

@Psifour @ord_io @hirowallet It's mostly that we are just two people right now and have higher priority things to spend our time on than building a custom indexer when such a great one is already built. Also, Hiro made it open source so we can always switch to running our own

@profstonge @JasonPLowery I disagree with the strawman of @JasonPLowery 's thesis (as I haven't read his thesis either as I'm stubbornly refusing to pay for it), but I at least have the decency to not try to blast it in an open-letter without reading it first.

Had the chance to pop into @blockspacepod 's space this morning. I just want to throw a shoutout to @bergealex4 and @actjust for the important reminder to factor in the potential social impact and different lived experiences when brutally chasing ever more cypherpunk tech.
