apparently "full archival nodes" are on the way out. they simply won't exist anymore at a certain point other than maybe you can find a service that will let you look at old history if you pay. that's what i heard...
and there goes the "decentralised blockchain" principle.. sold out to the highest paying central point of failure corporation
i'm not the one that said it franky. you might be surprised who did though. and it might not be who you thought.
I don't know who you think you're talking about but I don't think it could be greg.

see the link if you want more context.
not surprised.. at all.. kinda funny how it was me telling you about the corporate greed of core devs wanting to mess with a full node to such extremes for corporate profit
fixed that for you
My post history reveals I've never been a fan of ordinals and never expressed interest in purchasing them myself. However, I do know that in the future the collector's market will desire the earlier inscriptions, assuming there isn't some economic catastrophe between now and then.
Since you're so big on data and research, please find one post where I expressed an adoration for ordinals. Just because you're often wrong on a technical level and need to be corrected before others start believing your nonsense, it doesn't mean I "adore" ordinals.
in this very topic you have been promoting them. you have been LYING by pretending that they have proof of transfer and value and pretending that it works
fact is:
its junk dead weight data... so even in your occassional attempt to pretend to be against them once in a while.. you then flip the script still by still hinting that you think they are a valued system so are still promoting that you think collectors should grab some of the early ones..
