Those "new kids" on bitcoin block, Ordinals and Stacks (running smart contracts on bitcoin)...bullish or neutral to bitcoin's value long term?

Generally bullish.. given the available answers that you provided.

But is it any kind of surprise?

Not really.

We already should have known that a lot of value (if not all monetary value) is going to flow into bitcoin and bitcoin is going to be there as a gravitation point.. even if we might not know details regarding how some of this might play out.

Another thing is that the various ways that we might consider value.. including the $900 Trillion or so that is currently considered as various ways that monetary value is held is likely to increase.. perhaps double/triple or even a magnitude or more in today's dollars (so I am not even referring to value increasing merely due to inflation).

The idea that you could inscribe something on each satoshi is kind of fascinating.
I am not buying Stacks into a huge pump, but have some from 2017, totally forgot about them in the last year or two.

Maybe it is worth buying a couple of early ordinals...they might have value in 20-50 years or even earlier...i saw an original iphone being sold for $63K recently...could be same thing or even more...a collectible that is forever inscribed on the bitcoin blockchain.

IMHO, regardless of what 'conservative' bitcoiners say, this could be good for bitcoin's value (as an additional layer of such value).

Overall I agree with you, but I could give less than two shits about personally collecting either ordinals or participating in inscriptions, even though surely there are a lot creative ways this is happening, and surely there could be worse ways to store some of your sats... and if you think about it, down the road there could be some value in terms of some of the techology that comes from being able to see which number satoshis might be involved in various transactions.. or some of the number of satoshis that you might already hold. without actually realizing some of their origins.. so even if you hold some satoshis that you had recently acquired, you might not realize that they might have even earlier roots.. but you had not traced them back... in which blocks were the 200 billion satoshis that you already hold (presuming you hold them on your own wallet), and if you had already transacted quite a bit in bitcoin, then the satoshis that you hold might be from a variety of sources and some of those satoshis might have earlier blocks in terms of when they were initially mined... like collecting pennies and then looking at the date on each of them.. and every once in a while finding a "rare penny"

No stress in bitcoin, you don't need to go through Terrible stress over your hard earn money to secure it.

Oh gawd... . Roll Eyes

I had to look again at your previous post because I wasn't really sure if you got the bitcoin symbol correct.. and then I noticed that in that earlier post that I cited, you pretty much lifted all of those "definitions" right off of the coingeek website.. perhaps bordering on plagiarism.. because on the face of the matter, it is not really clear that you are citing that source rather than coming up with those definitions yourself.. ...

And, do you really believe that crap..

Consider these deceptive parts of your earlier retarded post:

Ticker symbol

Each digital currency has its own ticker, a shorthand symbol that is used to identify and distinguish it from other digital currencies. The ticker symbol for Bitcoin is BSV, BTC is the ticker symbol for Core Coin, ETH is the ticker symbol for Ethereum.

Did you ever believe those things that you had posted? If you did not believe them, then why would you have had posted them?

If you no longer believe the ideas contained within that post (including using coingeek as if it were a credible source), then I would suggest that you go back to your thread and you create a post to either admit how dumb that you were (or maybe that you continue to be.. and perhaps lock the thread.. unless there is some way that it could be cleaned up by your confessing and redeeming your ways.. I don't claim to be any kind of expert in regards to how to fix dumb (whether previously dumb or continued dumb - and hey I am somewhat receptive to various forums of ways that people are not smart.. so I don't really have a problem with dumbness if there are attempts to fix it)..... and apologize for making such previously greatly retarded post.. and sure, use your own words... .. but you should attempt to acknowledge that you were not (and perhaps continue to not be) in any kind of position to be giving advice about definitions related to bitcoin and to admit that you have to spend more time learning in regard to what bitcoin is, in order that you do not deceive (whether intentional or by accident) forum members (or other persons in the public).
