Bump.
I merely posting to continue the topic and for those living in space - that the Ordinals protocol has an upgrade called Runes. The upgrade enables tokens to be created on-chain in the Bitcoin blockchain, with token data stored in OP_RETURN and balances are stored in UTXOs.
I believe Runes = for tokens, and Ordinals = for NFTs? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Casey Rodarmor is probably working on something to give users the power to trade directly on-chain - like a DEX.
Decentralized trading is a key focus for Rodarmor, who revealed his idea for a Runes "gossip" network. This innovative approach aims to facilitate direct trading between users, potentially solving issues like RBF (Replace-By-Fee) and reducing reliance on centralized exchanges.
