Exactly. The other thing is these dumb uses of blockspace will either either get priced out more more efficient.
What about the increasing number of Ordinals minted to Spam the blockchain with JPEG's.
would that cause a lot of junk in the blockchain?
Yes, that could cause blocks to reach the max size of 4MBs per block, but still we should be okay.
There is a project on GitHub that excludes ordinals from being added to your node. It doesn't lead to a hard fork.
You mean patch by luke-jr? It only rejects them from the mempool, but you still store them after they are included in the blocks.
P.S. Inscriptions, not Ordinals. Ordinals are interpreation of relation between transaction inputs and outputs. Stuff that takes actual blockspace is Inscriptions.
It must have been that. Thanks for the correction. I saw it during the first bout of the Ordinals mania, before I was running a node, so my memory was vague.
It can’t be more than 4MB per block.
Bandwidth shouldn't be too bad since we're at 4MB of data transmission max.
