Ordinals took the Bitcoin ecosystem by storm this year. I talk with Jan Smejkal, CSO of Xverse, a leading Ordinals wallet, about what people are coming for, whether they're sticking around, and what the reinvigorated building on Bitcoin means for the protocol and culture.

I also talk about what I see as the primary mission for Bitcoin: separating money and state, as well as how I initially got into Bitcoin.

Originally recorded as a Twitter Space on May 25, 2023.
