JUST IN: Scotland's Lomond School launches a “Satoshi Scholarship” program, covering tuition and boarding for students, funded by donations from Bitcoiners 🏴
The school has also “begun establishing a Bitcoin treasury” 👏

Ordinals aren’t dead, But the tourists left!
For a while, the space was propped up by marketplace liquidity, incentives, and fast money. When Magic Eden stepped back, that layer disappeared overnight. What you’re seeing now isn’t collapse, it’s compression.
The protocol didn’t change.
Ordinals Protocol still does exactly what it was designed to do: anchor data directly into Bitcoin with no dependency on platforms, no mutable metadata, and no abstraction layer between creator and chain.
What broke was the expectation that this was supposed to behave like an NFT market.
It isn’t.
This is Bitcoin.
No shortcuts. No subsidies. No artificial liquidity.
So yes, it feels fragmented.
Because the people who needed momentum to participate are gone.
What’s left is smaller, quieter, and a lot more serious:
– builders working on compression, recursion, and indexing
– artists who care about permanence, not floor price
– collectors who understand provenance on a UTXO set, not a marketplace UI
That was always the point.
If your framework for Ordinals is “why isn’t there volume?” you’re asking the wrong question.
The right question is:
what survives when there’s no incentive to fake demand?
We’re finding that out in real time.
This phase isn’t death, it’s separation.
Same tech. Same goal.
Just fewer people pretending.
How do you prove a $45m artwork is real? You inscribe its entire provenance on Bitcoin.

Maker lineage. Foundry history. Legal title. IP rights. All immutable. All on-chain.
Starting with "Battle of the Centaurs", a 72kg, pure silver casting of Michelangelo's sculpture from 1492.
This is the first of many RWA artworks coming to Bitcoin.
More info soon.
I've been fascinated by space since I was young. It has taken 53 years for us to return to the moon again.
Unfortunately this is only happening because China announced they want to land astronauts on the moon by 2030.
Competition is a powerful motivator, but imagine what we could achieve if we weren't spending trillions fighting each other down here on Earth and channelled that energy into exploring up there together instead.
One world 🌍
We're going around the Moon. Come watch with us. Artemis II's four-astronaut crew is lifting off from @NASAKennedy on an approximately 10-day mission that will bring us closer to living on the Moon and Mars. The launch window opens at 6:24pm ET (2224 UTC). https://t.co/X27QJejNDt
