According to BlockBeats, Ordinals protocol developer Leonidas shared several suggestions on Runes casting on social platforms to help participants avoid risks and participate in Runes casting wisely. Leonidas pointed out that due to the slow block time of Bitcoin, when a Rune is about to be cast, users need to pay a significantly higher handling fee than others to ensure that the transaction is on the chain as soon as possible. Otherwise, not only will the casting fail, but the handling fee will also be lost. He suggested that Mempool be regarded as an auction site, and the transactions of the highest bidders will be packaged first.
If it is expected that Rune will not be minted soon, it is wiser to choose a period with lower handling fees to mint. You need to carefully understand the minting mechanism before minting. For example, the minting window of UNCOMMON•GOODS initiated by Casey is as long as 4 years. It is undoubtedly unwise to participate when Bitcoin fees are at a record high. Leonidas also reminded to pay attention to the pre-minting amount of Rune initiators. Usually, more than 10% is greedy behavior, and about 5% is more reasonable. He suggested that minting Rune is equivalent to buying, and the market value should be estimated in advance.
