On Apr. 20, Bitcoin (BTC) generated a staggering $78.3 million worth of fees compared to Ethereum (ETH).&nbsp;
For comparison, Ethereum comes in a distant second place with $3.2 million.&nbsp;
The massive uptick came after the creators of Ordinals launched Bitcoin Runes following the halving event. The protocol makes it possible to create fungible tokens atop the leading blockchain.&nbsp;
Lucas Outumuro <a href="https://twitter.com/LucasOutumuro/status/1782089893327388711" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">described</a> the launch of Runes, as “absolutely insane.”&nbsp;

He explains that the $80 million in daily fees is approximately four times larger than the previous all-time high that was set all the way back in December 2017.
During the ordinals, the average transaction fee was $30. However, now, it has peaked at $128.

Moreover, miners are now earning record revenues despite the recent halving event despite the fact that block rewards have dropped 50%.&nbsp;
On Saturday, they managed to earn more than $100 million. Prior to that, the consensus was that miners would experience short-term strain after the halving, with prominent miners’ stocks dropping more than 50% from their record highs.&nbsp;
Outumuro believes that traditional finance simply was not aware of the launch of Runes.&nbsp;
“It’s been less than 48 hours since the launch of Runes and it has already made an impact of historic proportions,” the analyst sums up.&nbsp;
However, it remains whether this hype surrounding Runes is going to persist.&nbsp;
So far, it seems like retail is sitting on the sidelines based on the fact that the number of retail addresses has reached a new low.&nbsp;
However, Runes might potentially emerge as a solution to Bitcoin’s long-standing security problem despite attracting some pushback within its conservative community.
