Why Runes 2.0 is a big deal 🧵 People have been talking about ways to make Bitcoin tokens programmable for many years but Runes builders have actually delivered it Thanks to a set of upgrades to the Bitcoin L1 infrastructure that powers Runes trading and launchpads the Runes UX is now 10x better than just 12 months ago (no I am not exaggerating) Trading improvements: - No MEV or sniping - Virtual liquidity pools that feel like a Uniswap style AMM - Trustless liquidity provisioning and market making - CLMM concentrated liquidity - Advanced order routing and aggregation engines - 2-of-2 multisig wallets that allow for optimistic instant settlement on trades in between blocks Launchpad improvements: - Synthetic minting experience that feels like Pump Fun but without the rugs - Funds no longer go to miners and instead bootstrap initial liquidity - Failed mints are now refunded On behalf of the entire Runes ecosystem I would like to give a huge shoutout to all of the builders who helped to bring the vision for programmable Runes to life! Also an extra special shoutout to the following builders @dot_swap, @radfi_btc, @SatsTerminal, @RunesDEX, and @XverseApp who have each fully embraced Runes 2.0 🧡
