Runecoin ▣⛏️

The factory hums. The ingots glow. We grow together. Or not at all. ordinals.com/content/7ccf9e0…

OKX DELISTING 1. We etched RUNECOIN (Rune #207453) to prevent scams, unrelated to OKX delisting. No distribution plans exist for this. 2. We had hoped the OKX listing would increase interest and liquidity for (a) Runecoin, (b) the runes ecosystem, and (c) ease listing for other projects. (a) and (b) failed; OKX delisted Runecoin, and the ecosystem's market cap is low. Impact on (c) is hard to quantify. 3. The aspirations were valid. Interest and liquidity are vital for runes projects and the ecosystem as a whole, but achieving them is challenging. 4. This delisting harms Runecoin and the runes ecosystem now but it may also lead to better solutions than centralized exchanges (not a promise). 5. Follow instructions on the OKX website to withdraw your runes by the terminal date: okx.com/help/okx-to-delist-f… Good luck, players.

As you've seen with Runecoin, and more recently other runes, CEX listings do not guarantee success. If only it were so simple. Durable success requires more. The current state of the Runes ecosystem shows signs of competition between marginally differentiated players, with no viable path to success. The real battle is to prove the market exists. Not to win a pyrrhic victory for the greatest % of nothing. In the former battle, we should all be united. For if we lose that battle, the latter one is of no consequence. All projects, founders and holders should be aligned on this purpose: runes must win as the premier standard for Bitcoin layer one fungibles. And the world must know and care enough about runes for projects and the ecosystem as a whole to flourish. They have to be something people want. That is not currently the case and the default path for runes is failure. Wanting something to be true is not enough. Believing it will be true someday is not enough. Something has to change. So, how can we get there? The answer is not to attack and distinguish. The answer is unite around common interests and create a welcoming environment. Every project, founder, and holder should have this in mind. To uplift rather than destroy one another. The runes ecosystem wins together, or not at all.

Chaos is brewing.

Recently, efforts were made to doxx our team. Such actions are apt to discourage devs from making projects like this in future. Free projects, for the culture. Think about that before you try to doxx anyone or lend your support to those who do. They are losers who are here to extract value. Not to create value or beauty. We are grateful to the community for the immense support we have received, and have no regrets about the time and money we have invested in building Runecoin so far. But the safety and security of our loved ones is not negotiable, and our privacy is paramount.

Block 888,888

As thank you, we sent 8888 RC to all (677) addresses who sent 888 Runecoin to a friend before block 872989.** This was an experiment in distribution. It showed that we can identify who participated from on-chain activity and send them a gift. While it sounds simple, it was non-trivial to pull the data from the runes index. We think this will be a useful primitive for the runes ecosystem. It enables many potential interactions based on on-chain activity. The runes ecosystem is small and needs to grow. We are not in the business of making promises but our intention is to continue experimenting as the ecosystem matures and find ways to improve the experience and range of actions available to projects and participants. **Criteria: the friend still holds it, and the sending addresses also still holds some RC.
