Introduction

Casey Roddermore is the inventor of Ordinals, a new standard to track individual satoshis and which can be used to inscribe arbitrary quantities of data into Bitcoin. We sit down to discuss the origin and purpose of ordinals and inscriptions as well as some essential questions like will they bloat Bitcoin? What kind of a block space is Bitcoin? Could it be the most premium block space for NFTs? Will the block space be pruned or do we have strong availability guarantees over time? Who will store the data where the inscription 400 kilobyte limit comes from all these questions and more in this episode with Casey.
