you cant fork out inscriptions

Indeed, anyone can fork Bitcoin, but the Blocksize Wars in the past have taught us an important lesson. The decision of what Bitcoin is rests with the node runners, and it appears that the market has chosen to stay on the route that avoids the need for hard forks. While forks are technically possible, the current consensus favors maintaining the existing Bitcoin protocol making it backwards compatible which means significant changes are not likely.

What hare fork is being considered?

Yes and it will quickly shift to PoS. They can't do another PoW fork, that will be dead in the water. They will have a hell of a time convincing miners to mine it even if they expect more fees. Can you imagine all the public miners going to their shareholder bases and saying we will be supporting Bitcoin Wizard fork because fees are higher. They will get sued into oblivion. Potentially they could mine both but if it goes down in flames like BCash they will all get fired.

There is a very, very slight chance the big blockers will try again now that Inscripts have people engaged. However, I really do not think it is likely.

How about a "It doesn't matter either way" option?

NO I don't see a fork coming, the community is stronger now and we have lightning to scale things up

"fork your mother if you wanna fork" :)

I asked the ceo and he said no

As the Italian man who went to Malta once said: "Everybody wanna the fork!"

I’ve noticed that the high tx fees have only increased my desire to own Bitcoin. At the same time my willingness to send/transfer to another wallet, spend, or liquidate my holdings has been dramatically decreased (obviously). I don’t see how any of that is a bad thing, although I understand the velocity of money argument in which Bitcoin needs to be used for everyday purposes in order to really scale. That’s what Lightning is for so if anything this situation might drive more people onto value-for-value platforms + increase frequency of visits by existing users of these platforms, where you can earn/stack for free or fund your sats balance more seamlessly (?)

I think the current problems can be mitigated with measures mainly in the P2P and mempool systems, which are not consensus bound. Honestly, the p2p system is, you know, circa 2009 still. We have better tech now and smarter schedulers and batch algorithms.

is this due to hurt-boyz whining about transactions they don't like?

let them fork, they don't understand bitcoin at all

bitcoin's security quite literally depends on having full blocks and high fees

What would this fork change/add if successful?

"Hi, I'm Craig Nakamoto and we need to fix the freedom to use bitcoin, as is its original vision, by making sure those ordinals aren't too damn expensive. I call it Bitcoin Original Free Use." nah, not again

No

But I'll take an airdrop if it comes

That's not going to happen)))) the reason is very logical! the opinion of one is not in authority!) I personally don't care what this guy says. i don't know him and let him do what he wants)))) he will have to create 450 000 000 nodes to have at least 1-2% confirmation of his theory in practice) which in turn means $ 900 000 000 in 30 days) and someone has been preparing for this turn of events since 2010))) So it does not matter what this guy says, he has no idea what is going on!) and the best part is, you have to believe him... that's how it works. 2777
