A BRIEF HISTORY OF JSON MAXI BIZ
November 26, 2023:
In pull request #2753 titled "Hide all text", Casey Rodarmor suggests hiding all text inscriptions from the homepage of ordinals.com due to their limited aesthetic appeal and prevalence of spam.
casey commented on Nov 26, 2023 Maybe we should just hide all text inscriptions from the homepage. Text inscriptions are cool, but the number that are non-spam, and that look good on the homepage is small.

Works for me
The sentiment of this decision was reinforced by Casey's comment, "RIP text inscriptions 🫡", signaling the removal of various text formats including JSON from the homepage.
Creation of JSON Maxi Biz:
In response to the removal of text inscriptions, the JSON Maxi Biz (JMB) project was initiated to reintroduce visually appealing JSON content to the homepage of ordinals.com.
Inspired by Dmitri Cherniak's goosinalgenerator.com, a randomized SVG generator, the JMB project authored their own generator enabling participants to inscribe JSON text in SVG format.
Launch and Rapid Adoption:
The JMB minting process was launched, offering a free and fair opportunity for users to mint JSON Maxi Biz assets.
The team pre-minted 100 assets, including some on exotic sats, to kickstart the project.
Within just 12 hours of launch, 10101 JSON Maxi Biz were inscribed, quickly dominating the front page of ordinals.com and showcasing the community's enthusiasm for JASON.
Community Engagement and Challenges:
The project garnered attention on x, where a call to users to post videos of themselves validating JSON on Luke Dash Jr's tweet, resulted in the suspension of the first Twitter account associated with the project.
Despite challenges and periods of FUD, the development of JSON Maxi Biz continued behind the scenes, showcasing resilience and dedication to the project's vision.
Current Status:
JSON Maxi Biz remains an ongoing project, with the aim of highlighting the versatile use case of JSON data when fused with blockchain technology.
