## Resource

On this episode of Hell Money, we perform the last rites for Ordinals after the collapse of Magic Eden’s Bitcoin marketplace and the end of the easy money era. But is this actually the death of Ordinals — or the beginning of something stronger? We dive into the shifting economics of on-chain art, the role of provenance and galleries, Bitcoin vs crypto culture wars, and the latest AI developments in World War 3.
