Bitcoin core developer Luke Dashjr has criticized the Runes protocol, suggesting it exploits a fundamental design flaw within the blockchain network.
In an April 26 post on X (formerly Twitter), Dashjr delineated the disparity between Ordinal Inscriptions and the Runes protocol in how they interact with the network. He clarified that while Ordinals capitalize on vulnerabilities within the blockchain, the Runes protocol operates within the framework of the network’s design flaws.
He explained further:

On the other hand, Runes are fungible tokens introduced on the day Bitcoin completed
