On September 1st, the long-quiet BRC protocol announced an upgrade!
A few days have passed, and there seems to be no significant ripples, and the DOG of the Runes protocol even plummeted by 50%!
But this is just the beginning; the debate about Bitcoin expansion and security has never stopped, perhaps it's the next super meme and the turning point of the protocol.
The Bitcoin token protocol BRC20 has taken a step towards achieving Ethereum-style smart contracts by integrating the Ethereum Virtual Machine into its core logic.
The upgrade known as BRC2.0 was executed by Ordinals developer Best in Slot and the pseudonymous creator of BRC20

"Bitcoin meta-protocols like BRC20 run on indexers, and the function of the indexer is just like a simple calculator. Best in Slot CEO Eril Binari Ezerel said: "We upgraded this 'calculator-like' indexer with EVM, making BRC20 Turing complete."
The Bitcoin token protocol has integrated the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) into its core logic starting from Bitcoin block 912690.$BTC
