I have a love/hate relationship with Bitcoin Ordinals & Runes.
There's great potential, but I ended up losing money on it.
Tbh, degens should like the high volatility, and issuance model is less predatory than on Solana.
But for whales, the liquidity is too thin. It's stuck in between.
UX used to be atrocious, too. Most of SVM/EVM degens on CT have no idea how the Bitcoin network works (learning how Bitcoin works was part of Rune's charm to me).
But UX has improved a lot and prices jumping back up.
