Runes Protocol Launches
April 20, 2024
In parallel with the eagerly anticipated Bitcoin halving, Casey Rodarmor, a Bitcoin developer, has launched his latest creation, the Runes Protocol. In the first hours of the protocol’s launch, Runes users have already paid out 78.6 BTC (~$4.95 million) to purchase rare items. Speculators are betting that the first runes will be the most valuable, driving significant interest. There are already hundreds of rune projects being developed, seeking potential buyers.
