<p>Bitcoin Runes, an innovative protocol built on the Bitcoin network, has managed to outperform the native <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/analyst-predicts-bitcoin-surge-targets-90000-amid-bullish-indicators/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin (BTC)</a>, Ordinals, and the BRC-20 token in terms of the number of daily transactions. Runes Protocol launched on April 20, 2024, coinciding with Bitcoin’s fourth halving, and has been touted as the biggest update since Ordinals.</p>
<p>Based on data from Dune Analytics, shows that transactions related to Runes constitute the majority of transactions on the Bitcoin network as of April 24. Runes claimed the highest transaction share, 81.3%, on April 23, pushing Bitcoin’s transaction share down to 18.15%, with Ordinals and BRC-20 transactions at 0.1% each. However, Runes transactions decreased consistently over the next nine days until May 2. As the data above shows, Runes began to recover from May 3. In the following days, on May 4 and 5, Runes regained its transaction share above 60%.</p>

<p>Although the rapid increase in the number of transactions inadvertently increases network fees, this often benefits Bitcoin miners.<a href="https://x.com/Bellickkruz/status/1786426831601611139" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> Runes Protocol </a>collected 2,253 BTC in fees for the mining community in 16 days.</p>
<p>The mining community welcomed the increase in fees as their revenues dropped significantly after Bitcoin halved. In May 2024, total Bitcoin miner revenue dropped to below $30 million per day. To maintain profitability, miners are constrained to update their current innovation with profoundly proficient mining rigs to decrease operational costs and increment execution and benefits.</p>
<p>Bitfarms, a <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/advanced-3nm-bitcoin-mining-chip-and-system-unveiled-whats-next/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin mining</a> firm, has earmarked $240 million for its upgrade, pointing to twofold its hash rate to 21 exahashes per moment. Furthermore, the company has sold about all the Bitcoin it mined in the last two months because it remains committed to supporting its mining infrastructure.</p>
<p>The introduction of Runes has profoundly altered the dynamics of digital asset creation and exchange within the Bitcoin network. With its innovative approach to token issuance and transfer, Runes is poised to dominate daily transactions on the Bitcoin network.</p>
<p>Bitcoin Runes, poised to dominate Bitcoin transactions, signals a bright future, revolutionizing the crypto industry’s transaction landscape. Its innovative approach to token issuance and transfer ensures sustained growth, promising significant advancements in the realm of digital assets.</p>
