"Building" is such a loaded term, and I’ve often grappled with it. What the fuck does it mean? It’s certainly not about providing uTiLiTy. Fuck that. So, then what? Until I realized. BUILDING IS JUST DOING SHIT IN THE SPACE Staying active. Showing up. Spreading the word. Onboarding people. Finding the gaps and using your abilities to fill them. It’s about using your skills to move the space forward. It could mean tooling. It could mean hosting spaces. It could mean writing informative articles. It could mean convincing talented artists to join Ordinals. It’s not waiting around for someone else to do what needs to be done. And just fucking doing it. Ordinals communities often emphasize “art only, no utility.” But somewhere along the way, we became fertile ground for people to hype their way to a massive drop, cash out for millions, and fuck off. No building. Just pure extraction. Now, more than ever, we need more builders in the Ordinals space. But this also means participants need to let go of clinging to old bags and instead support those of us actively working to create something new. Every. Single. Day. Join us.
