While Bitcoin maxis would have little interest on how much a monkey is valued in some fake auction, what most here are concerned is the amount of "spam" those things do, and if you look at the statistics:
% of BTC Transactions

Number of BRC-20 Inscription Minted

Not that much has changed, one might say it's even worse.
It's also worth to mention pace of UTXO growth remain unchanged since Ordinal-based token become popular[1]. Few months ago i mentioned massive UTXO growth at ~102.5 million UTXO[2], but now we're looking at 119.9 million UTXO[1].
