Today marks the two-year anniversary of Casey launching the Rune protocol. Rune was originally designed to optimize BRC-20, but the BRC-20 community wasn’t interested at all. Coupled with the downturn in the Bitcoin ecosystem at the time, the protocol itself didn’t take off. However, the biggest beneficiary in the Rune ecosystem was actually DOG. Leonidas airdropped 100% of DOG to the inscription community (excluding BRC-20 holders), making it the largest airdrop in the entire ecosystem. In terms of returns, it directly made early inscription players go wild with profits, with DOG’s market cap once soaring to $1 billion. In this volatile market, everyone is just going with the flow—retail investors, project teams, and developers alike. Even though Rune’s hype has significantly cooled down now, I’m still happy that we have a community of nearly 6,000 people who remain active daily. We talk about investments, but also other things. In a bear market, having a place to chat makes it a little less boring. Just a small trip down memory lane. By the way, Bitcoin’s next halving is only two years away.
