Luke Dashjr refuses to assign a BIP number to the Ordinals proposal, sparking community doubts

Odaily Planet Daily News According to reports, since 2011, Luke Dashjr has voluntarily reviewed Bitcoin Improvement Proposals (BIP). In practice, Dashjr is the only person who can assign BIP numbers. Today, Dashjr has been criticized for refusing to assign a BIP number to a proposal from another Bitcoin Core contributor, Casey Rodarmor.

Because Dashjr believes that Ordinals is a garbage protocol, he did not even take this proposal seriously, so he did not assign a BIP number to it. His behavior has sparked fierce opposition to Dashjr's role as a BIP administrator. Critics point out that he is becoming a gatekeeper who can single-handedly prevent changes to the Bitcoin code.
