Technical Overview

Runes Protocol

The Runes Protocol is a set of decentralized, open-source smart contracts designed to facilitate cross-chain interactions. It operates on a layered architecture ensuring scalability, security, and interoperability.

Key Features:

• Cross-Chain Communication: Enabling transfer of data and value between different blockchain networks.

• Smart Contract Capability: Allowing for complex operations and interactions across blockchains.

BRC-20 Token Standard

The BRC-20 is a token standard similar to Ethereum’s ERC-20 but optimized for the Bitcoin network, facilitating token creation and management while maintaining compatibility with the EVM architecture.

Key Features:

• Interoperability: Ensures that tokens can move freely between Bitcoin and EVM chains.

• Scalability: Designed to handle high transaction volumes typical of decentralized applications.
