Hi all,
Luke is definitely entitled to his opinions about ordinals, and I certainly
understand why people may not like ordinals and inscriptions.
I don't think that ordinals are "nonsense", an "attack on Bitcoin", or that
I'm dishonest, as Luke implies, or that my actions are an attempt to
"harm/
Dear List,
The Ordinals BIP PR has been sitting open for nine months now[0]. I've
commented a few times asking the BIP editors to let me know what is needed
for the BIP to either be merged or rejected. I've also reached out to the
BIP editors via DM and email, but haven't received a response.

Good evening list,
Apologies for posting! I've tried to keep discussion of ordinals and
inscriptions off-list, because I consider it to be of little relevance to
general Bitcoin development. Also, apologies for the HTML mail, but I don't
have my email client configured correctly. And finally, also
> One thought I had was: what happens if/when it comes to pass that we
increase payment precision by going sub-satoshi on chain? It seems like it
would be fairly simple to extend that to ordinals by having fraction
ordinals like 1.1 or 4.85. Could be an interesting thought to add to the
proposal.

problem with ordinal numbers: what if/when we introduce some Monero-like
system and hide coin amounts? (for example by using zero satoshi, because
we have to use something that will be backward-compatible). Zero is quite

What about zero satoshis?
A zero satoshi input or output carries no ordinals, so an ordinal index can
ignore them.

Thank you!

The least reasonable thing I could expect is some claimed former holder of
some ordianls turning up to challenge me that it was their stolen Bitcoin

I think it's unlikely that this would come to pass. A previous owner of an
ordinal wouldn't have any particular reason
Good afternoon list,
I've been working on a scheme of stable public identifiers that can be
used for a variety of purposes.
The scheme is extremely simple and does not require protocol-level
changes, but since different applications and wallets might use such
identifiers, standardizing and publis
