Michael Saylor discusses Bitcoin inscriptions: supports free usage but opposes protocol changes
According to TechFlow, on December 25, during Gokhshtein Media's "The Breakdown" program, Strategy founder Michael Saylor expressed his stance on the highly debated BITCOIN Ordinals (Bitcoin inscriptions). Saylor acknowledged that inscriptions are a controversial topic but emphasized that the stability of the Bitcoin protocol is its core value. He stated his support for users' freedom to use the Bitcoin network, including minting inscriptions, but firmly opposed modifying the underlying protocol or adding new features for this purpose. Saylor neither supports censoring inscriptions nor advocates for protocol changes to promote them, believing that Bitcoin's fundamental value lies in monetary integrity rather than additional features. He advocates letting the market naturally determine the direction of development, where good ideas will prevail and bad ones will fail, and stresses that the Bitcoin network should be inclusive of all types of users, from government institutions to individual investors.
