In this episode of The Ordinal Show we delve into topics like the provenance of Bitcoin-based collections such as Bitcoin Punks and the ethos supporting their decentralized, open-mint nature. The discussion covers issues in the Ethereum NFT space, contrasting with the durability and on-chain permanence that Bitcoin offers, making a case for ordinals as a sustainable solution free from reliance on centralized entities. The conversation touches on the economic forces shaping Ordinals' value, issues with royalties, and the inevitable shift in NFT markets. Listener interactions raise questions about the durability of NFTs, cultural shifts, and upcoming trends in the Bitcoin space.
