Bitcoin’s blockchain bandwidth usage has surged past 90% following the recent Bitcoin halving, a testament to its renewed preeminence in the cryptocurrency market. According to a <a href="https://dune.com/cryptokoryo/runes#runes-overview" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">chart</a> from Dune Analytics, BTC’s dominance exceeds 6.8% for Runes, 1.6% for BRC-20, and 0.2% for Ordinals in transactional share.&nbsp;
<h2 id="b-bitcoin-dominance-surges-post-halving-b">Bitcoin Dominance Surges Post Halving</h2>
Notably, one of the key drivers behind this increased dominance is the introduction of new token standards like Runes and BRC-20 on the Bitcoin network. These standards have enabled a broader range of applications and have attracted developers who previously focused on other blockchains.&nbsp;
In addition to new token standards, there has been a marked increase in transaction volume on the Bitcoin network. Post-halving, the number of transactions has grown significantly, reflecting heightened interest and activity. Likewise, this surge can be attributed to several factors, including increased adoption by institutional investors and the <a href="https://thecoinrise.com/bitcoin-could-double-to-140k-in-3-months-analyst/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">growing recognition of Bitcoin</a> as a hedge against inflation and economic uncertainty.
Moreover, Bitcoin’s established position as the first and most recognized cryptocurrency continues to attract users and developers. Its security, robustness, and widespread acceptance make it a preferred choice for many, reinforcing its blockchain dominance.
