you are in a cult. i know because i used to be in your cult. the maxi cult. its a sad place. you can still escape.
There are no arguments - just software, opinions, and human action
Everything about ordinals is very transparent and we are not misleading anybody in any way
Unlikely that traditional podcasters will put me on their platform because ordinals are controversial
Value is subjective, who are you to call something "worthless" when it has a market price?
Why is it so hard to understand that there's a market for digital collectibles and digital art?
Who hurt you?
The purpose of a system is what it does. Bitcoin is more than peer to peer electronic cash now. Sorry if that offends you, but it's the reality.
a) good for bitcoin
Ordinals are attracting lots of capital and developers into the bitcoin ecosystem
b) good for humanity
Art and culture can now be engraved into our historical records forever, and people are having fun while learning about using bitcoin
If you don't like what's happening, you can try to stop it. Good luck
HR is fairly fiat in my opinion, but I've also never had to deal with managing more than 6 people, so maybe I could see how it has become a thing
I am still not convinced that Ordinals are something worth spending MY money or resources on
If you're not an art collector, a meme-coin speculator, or a rare coin collector, you're right that ordinals are probably not for you
what do you see as being the long term value or long term use case for Ordinals?
The value they bring is simply entertainment in the form of art, collectibles, and meme-coins. It's not very important in the grand scheme of things, but it is fun and it has the potential to get more people in the door of learning about bitcoin
I'd love to make lots of money and retire. I think that's a pretty common thing for people independent of their socioeconomic status. I'm not sure I see the connection between such ambition and financial privilege
No I don't think you need to be a psychopath at all. I'm still learning what it takes to be a good CEO but I think you just need to be well balanced, be able to convey a vision, inspire people, lead by example, delegate work, and make good decisions
Not asking to negotiate anything. I have little interest in being accepted into your strange money cult
The link is https://deezy.place, but we have not done the best job of maintaining it.
Basically ordinals work very well with decentralized marketplaces because you can simply sign a partial transaction in order to list something for sale. Then by publishing it over nostr with a distinct tag, any marketplace can read the listing and anybody can purchase the item. It's pretty neat
If you're actually interested in the facts...
Beyond the cartoon jpegs, many generative artists around the world have found a home with NFTs. It doesn't take much to see: look at platforms like ArtBlocks or talk to any generative artist and you'll see that many are thrilled to finally have a platform to publish their digital art.
As for finding God, I do my best to live a godly life. I pray every day and meditate for 2+ hours each day. Walking with God is the rock that gives me confidence to continue in the face of hostile people online who try to insult and bring me down for challenging their assumptions about what bitcoin can be. I am not perfect and I have made mistakes, but I firmly believe there is nothing wrong with building on ordinals, despite what your cult(ure) may lead you to believe.
Additionally, our team has pioneered an art project specifically aimed to bring degens to God - it's called Mystic Pepe. You can see the original here (no it is not for sale): https://www.ord.io/34595802
