Expanding Horizons: Runesterminal Rebrands as BtcTerminal, Integrating Fractal Bitcoin

We are proud to announce a major milestone in our journey—Runesterminal is rebranding to „BtcTerminal’’. This change reflects our commitment towards the entire Bitcoin ecosystem while maintaining our strong support for Runes. While several BTC second layers like Merlinchain, Bitlayer, Bob or Botanix are already integrated in our backen. Equally exciting is our integration of Fractal Bitcoin, a scaling solution that promises to revolutionize how Bitcoin operates at scale.

Runesterminal was built to support and pioneer the Runes protocol, a unique fungible token system on Bitcoin that integrates directly with the blockchain while leveraging the UTXO model. As Runes gains momentum and continues to innovate, we are broadening our focus to cover the entire Bitcoin ecosystem. Our new identity as BtcTerminal symbolizes this expansion and our dedication to advancing Bitcoin infrastructure on a larger scale.

Fractal Bitcoin represents the future of Bitcoin scaling. Unlike other solutions, Fractal uses the Bitcoin Core code itself to enable recursive scaling across unlimited layers, maintaining full consistency with the Bitcoin main chain. This makes it a truly native scaling solution—one that doesn’t rely on foreign constructs or compromise on security.

• ⁠Native: Fractal’s recursive scaling is built directly on Bitcoin Core, ensuring compatibility with existing infrastructure, such as wallets, and enabling seamless interaction with the Bitcoin blockchain.
• ⁠Fast: Transactions on Fractal layers are confirmed in 30 seconds or less, with each layer offering up to 20 times the capacity of the previous one.
• Dynamic: Fractal’s design allows for dynamic scaling, acting as a blockspace load balancer that adjusts to demand, reducing congestion and enabling applications to operate at internet scale.
• Consistent: Each layer maintains self-replicating consistency with the Bitcoin main chain, preserving on-chain consensus and traceability without the risks of forks or shards.
• ⁠Easy: Assets can be transferred directly between layers without additional relays, thanks to Fractal’s consistent layer architecture.

BtcTerminal will not only continue to support the Runes protocol but also serve as a hub for all Bitcoin-related projects. With Fractal Bitcoin integrated into our platform, we are positioned to offer unparalleled scalability, speed, and security for developers and users alike. We are launching all kind of Bitcoin projects. Runes and Fractal included!

As BtcTerminal, our mission is to push the boundaries of what is possible with Bitcoin. The integration of Fractal Bitcoin marks the beginning of a new era where Bitcoin can scale infinitely while retaining the core principles that make it the world’s most secure blockchain. This dual commitment—to Runes and the broader Bitcoin ecosystem—ensures that we remain up to date.

The journey is just beginning, and we invite you to join us as we explore the limitless possibilities of Bitcoin. Follow us on Twitter @btcterminal_ for the latest updates, and stay tuned for more exciting developments.

Welcome to the future of Bitcoin. Welcome to BtcTerminal.

Note: The rebranding and integration with Fractal Bitcoin do not impact our ongoing commitment to Runes. We remain dedicated to supporting and advancing the Runes protocol, alongside our new focus on the broader Bitcoin ecosystem.
