Ordinals
So lately I seem to have seen this word a lot more regularly than my few months in haven’t been around. This is not like from weeks ago but, just days after the halving and few days that preceded the halving. While it’s been trashed talked by some users to be some,
- Some rubbish that didn’t have a place with Bitcoin
- Referred as though, it’s got little or no value about it
- Something that should be dissolved or set loose from Bitcoin.
While, I don’t seem to really understand it as a whole but, how then did this very not well appreciated part of Bitcoin came to be this way? I don’t really get the concept but, it doesn’t seem very appreciated.
My searches on what Ordinals really is talks about, Ordinals being some Bitcoin NFT, where Satoshi Nakamoto assigned some signatures to the sats that could serve as an NFT (Non Fungible Tokens).
Should a currency of this nature really have that? Just a good for thought. I mean, Bitcoin is just as unique, precious and more adorned the way it is such that, it’s shadow will continue to be cast on whatever it’s tied or linked with.
Though, that’s not the point but,
While it talked about having certain signatures attached to the sats, isn’t this applicable to every other sats out there, to serve as a unique unit of there own with them signatures?
I don’t know where am getting it wrong but, the halving seemed to have brought this to light and so, I would want a little clarification on the topic. Thanks!
