Ordinals are stupid. Inscriptions are stupid. NFTs are stupid. I consider all these things a method to move money from lots of gullible newbies to a small handful of people who successfully convinced these gullible newbies that such nonsense is worth anything.
This has been a major issue right from the beginning, and this issue is just for those who still don't want to realise that all this NFT, ordinal, and any form of token that could be generated as a result of this is just value based on the hype that the creator can be able to give to it; it's really not worth it, but yet people find it convincing to invest millions over a piece of work that really doesn't have a real value attached to it just because they are called NFT or just because they are under the bitcoin network does not make it valuable.
Very soon, many people who are rushing to buy and hold these ordinary tokens will soon be crying out loud, just like those who are already filing a lawsuit against CR7 for the NFT they bought due to its being promoted by him.
However, we absolutely should not be censoring transactions.
Spam is subjective. What if a bitcoin dev turns round tomorrow and declares all your signature payments spam and wants to censor those? Will you all still be cheering for censorship then?
Allowing individuals to start arbitrarily passing rules to censor some transactions is absolutely not what bitcoin was designed to be. If you want your transactions to need approval from third parties, then go and use fiat.
I see nothing much different in this censorship from centralization. If censorship is the only option that could be used to defeat this ordinal madness, then it's not an option at all, as it will make bitcoin not different from altcoins, which are centralised and holders funds can be frozen withheld or whatever word could be used, but it means users not having access to their funds as a result of it being censored.
We now have someone to decide if our coins are clean or not, and if they don't like it, they can just block it from passing through. That will really be the worst mess up for the bitcon network, more than what the ordinal is doing right now.
