According to Odaily Planet Daily, The Block editor Rebecca Stevens analyzed that the emergence of Runes has suppressed BRC-20 activities. Although BRC-20 tokens were highly sought after before the halving, with more than 200,000 BRC-20 transactions per day, it is now more common to see fewer than 10,000 transactions involving the old token standard. Since the launch of Runes, there have always been at least 150,000 transactions related to Runes on the Bitcoin network, but after the emergence of Runes, Ordinals transactions are lucky to reach 5,000.
