According to the Daily Planet, Casey Rodarmor, founder of the Bitcoin NFT protocol Ordinals, is asking for suggestions on the creation of RUNE, and community members can submit suggestions for the name, currency symbol, divisibility, and minting conditions. Casey said Runes 0-9 may be hard-coded, all in open fair casting, without any type of premine or preallocation. Previously, Casey announced at Taipei Blockchain Week that the mainnet time of the Runes protocol is set at block height 840,000, which is the time of the next Bitcoin halving. Bitcoin’s 4th halving is expected to occur on April 23, 2024.
