I don't want to spend $40 to consolidate here.  I guess I'll just have to wait.  And wait & wait & wait???

Maybe only a much higher BTC price will stop those ords from infesting the mempool....


You know what should irk you more? When a bad actor uses Ordinals to build a sustainable market to keep Bitcoin congested. Plus what would definitely irk you most would be when an "Ordinals-based" company called "Tap Protocol" raises millions of U.S. Dollars to develop and build apps on top of Bitcoin for gaming and decentralized finance, which will keep the network congested.

But how long will the excitement around Ordinals/BRC-20 continue? I believe we could ask Ethereum users. How long have their users lived through high fees? Since 2017?
