Today’s episode is about exploring the frontier of tokens on Bitcoin with guest Casey Rodarmor. Casey is the creator of the Ordinals Protocol, a harmless protocol that simply allowed for arbitrary data to be inscribed into individual Bitcoin UTXOs, creating what are called Bitcoin NFTs. He is now also the creators of Runes, a second protocol, working to bring fungible tokens to Bitcoin.  Bitcoin is changing and Casey appears to be one of main reasons for the change. Soon he’ll be unveiling a new protocol standard for Bitcoin - called Runes, which wants to be a bitcoin-native version of fungible tokens, on the Bitcoin L1 - which is going to be the topic of the show today. ------ 📣 PERMISSIONLESS III | BUY TICKETS NOW  Bankless Citizens get 30% off: https://www.bankless.com/tools/perks  Use BANKLESS10 for 10% off: https://bankless.cc/PermissionlessIII  ------ BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: 🐙KRAKEN | MOST-TRUSTED CRYPTO EXCHANGE https://k.xyz/bankless-pod-q2    ⁠  🔗CELO | CEL2 COMING SOON https://bankless.cc/Celo  🔐 SAFE | ATTEND SAFE{CON} https://bankless.cc/SafeCon  ⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM ⁠https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum   🛞MANTLE | MODULAR LAYER 2 NETWORK https://bankless.cc/Mantle  🗣️TOKU | CRYPTO EMPLOYMENT SOLUTION https://bankless.cc/toku  ------ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 5:00 The Guy Who Changed Bitcoin 10:21 Why Casey’s Building 16:45 Ordinals Cultural Shift 22:43 Runes 31:40 The Ord Standard  45:27 Bitcoin Blocks & Blockspace Limit 57:47 Bitcoin Innovation Implications  1:02:41 Rune Parameters 1:11:20 The First Runes (Uncommon Goods)  1:14:34 Timeline on Runes & Trading Ecosystem 1:17:12 The Future of Runes/Ordinals 1:19:48 The Bitcoin Renaissance  1:21:34 Winning Over Bitcoin Maximalists 1:23:45 Casey’s Podcast     1:24:58 Runes Team 1:26:37 Closing & Disclaimers    ------ RESOURCES Casey’s 1st Bankless Episode  https://youtu.be/ktL77zEWcEc  Casey’s Twitter https://twitter.com/rodarmor   Casey’s Hellmoney Podcast  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCflejnUswWof6yEMk9dRzOA  ------ Not financial or tax advice.
