Yesterday, the Ordinals protocol V.017.0 version was officially released, including the final implementation plan of the long -awaited “rune” protocol.
>
Xiaobian quickly compiled a few QA about “runes”:
Can I play “runes” now?No, “Rune” will be officially activated at the height of Bitcoin block 840, 000 activation, and it is expected that there will be about 19 days.
What is the first “rune”?The first “Rune” is the “Hard Code” (that is, directly written in the code), the founder of the Ordinals protocol Casey Rodarmor.”World Rama”.However, it must be noted that the “Creation Rune” is limited and unlimited. It will be hit from the upcoming block of 2024 to the next half of the block, and each transaction is one.Casey is still considering whether the previous plan is implemented, and the “hard-coding” plan of all the top 10 “runes” is the first 10 “runes”.
“Runes” after being deployed like the BRC-20, do everyone be fighting fairly?It depends on the settings of the deployee.When supporting the deployment, it will be completed at the same time, facilitating the project party to do centralized distribution, but also supports everyone in the future like BRC-20.At this point, “Rune” is much more flexible than the BRC-20. It also supports public casting but the project party reserves (such “runes” token will be marked) and the “limited time unlimited” mentioned earlier.
Why is the first “Rune” Ticker that was officially unlocked?The maximum length of “Rune” Ticker is 26 characters (Casey’s hard -coded “Uncommon • Goods” has nothing to do with this rule. It is worth noting that “•” is not counted as a separator in 12 characters. This is to make Ticker more moreThere is recognition, such as “WO • Yao • DISS • You”), but it is a process of reversely unlocking with time (block), gradually unlocked from long Ticker to short Ticker.In simple terms, after the block height of 840 and 000 “runes” are officially activated, all 13-26 characters Ticker can be deployed immediately, but “ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZANZ” is the first 12 -character Ticker that can be deployed.The 12 -character TICKER will be unlocked at the block 840, 000 -857, 500, that is, after each 17, 500 blocks, the shorter ticker will begin to be unlocked.So for familiar 4 -character Ticker, such as $ PEPE, we need to wait for about 3 years.

This TICKER unlocking method is completely reverse compared to the BRC-20.The BRC-20 has just opened 5-character Ticker. If the BRC-20 will continue to open the longer TICKER deployment in the next few years, will the two meet a piece at a certain point in time?This is quite interesting.
The recent update of the BRC-20 not only supports 5-character TICKER, but also supports “self-distribution”, that is, the project party has deployed a fight, and at the same time supports the combustion mechanism.In the short term, these updates of the BRC-20 are more conducive to the formation of hype than Runes, which not only facilitates the centralized distribution of the project party, but also enables the old project party to make some shrinkage gameplay to stimulate market performance.BRC-20’s current advantage.
And the advantage of Runes is that first of all, this is the standard at the Ordinals protocol level. With a non -very appropriate analogy is Eto Eto Erc 404 and DN 404.It is a more cheaper and fully compliance with Ethereum standards, and strives to become an EIP.Runes, as the official “pro-son” of Ordinals, will not have the problem of stability by the change of the ordinals protocol as the BRC-20, and it can enjoy the possible improvement of the new features of the Ordinals protocol in the first time.UTXO, players do not need to engrave the inscriptions first and then send out the inscription to complete the transaction, which greatly saves costs.
More importantly, although Runes is the standard at the Ordinals protocol, its implementation itself does not rely on the Ordinals protocol. It is independent like Taproot Assets and RGB.The implementation of the BRC-20 depends on the Ordinals protocol. In the long run, the development of the BRC-20 seems to be passive.
In the past, the editor mentioned Casey’s dissatisfaction with BRC-20-produced a large amount of “junk” UTXO.Therefore, in September 2023, Casey released the concept of “rune”. The UTXO model native to Bitcoin (UTXO) model was reduced to minimize the generation of “garbage” UTXO, thereby achieving a more responsible UTXO UTXOManagement and smaller chain.
Now, “Rune” is coming.Everyone often joked that Ordinals is an ecology of “noisy quarrel”, and the launch of “runes” is about to become a real war.It’s right.
