Whit this pull request being merged, NFTs on Monero, also known as morbs will be severely constrained in their maximum size. It was fun while it lasted, I’m very glad this change was implemented so quickly after morbs became a thing :)

@monerobull There is nothing specifically planned AFAIK. If there is enough reason for Monero to hard fork, then it could be done. For example, if Bulletproofs++ is properly reviewed and implemented, better decoy selection, e.g. avoid coinbase outputs, discretizing fees (Seraphis does this, but it can be implemented independently), etc.
I think a hard fork is not necessary until seraphis.
Node operators that do not want to store bloated jpges on their computer will update quickly, the more mOrdinals grows, the bigger the incentive to update to the latest Monero software.
@Nerd_mister Even Monero nodes that have this update will store the large tx_extra data when they are confirmed on the blockchain. The update just allows a node to choose not to relay the transaction to other nodes before they are confirmed.
