I am having a little rant while sharing a couple of reflections on X. About the Bitcoin Ordinals provenance tools and capabilities. As a collector first and as advisor second, I believe we should do better. The information for artists is still very fragmented, while the focus of certain platforms is on PFPs/speculation. JSON are a crucial element on the Artist's journey on Ordinals, and they are very important as much as the golden standard parent-child provenance. https://x.com/lukefivehundred/status/1836036616265081016

Read this and all it does is convince me it's not worth paying attention to anything on bitcoin (other than bitcoin itself). Collectors, Artists, curators etc. should not need to learn about this stuff.

Wow. Mind to articulate a bit on why, Will? Quite a hot take, I’d love to hear more. :) Just today @phenomena is auctioning a stunning seminal work, inscribed on Bitcoin. I came from an original pov that NFTs were compete scams entirely so I like extremes and to debate them whenever possible

I saw the work in person in Berlin! Personally I don’t think that the “responding to the blocks” aspect of some of these works is interesting, but I can see the appeal. What I mean is the need to understand the parent/child, sat rarities, etc. The emphasis on the kind of sat something is inscribed on feed particularly arbitrary and only relevant for the purpose of speculation. Net net there is nothing about the added complexity and friction of putting art on bitcoin that seems to merit the excitement. I want functional wallets & easy (easier) to understand ecosystems so the art becomes more of the focus.
