Runes protocol sees significant decline in activity

Despite generating hundreds of thousands of dollars in daily fees, Runes has only surpassed $1 million in total fees twice in the last twelve days, signaling a notable decline.

The Runes protocol’s activity has decreased significantly since its first week of trading. On May 10th specifically, there was a notable decline in activity, with very few new mints and new wallets interacting with the protocol compared to previous periods.
