Hello Leo-Family,

Welcome to this week’s RUNE guessing game! After a promising period of growth, RUNE has struggled to keep pace with BTC and other assets recently. Over the past week, the price has trended downward, with RUNE briefly flirting with the $5 level. Despite this dip, activity on Thorchain has been buzzing. Swap volumes remain high, and frontends built on the protocol are generating impressive revenue. However, the token’s price hasn’t yet mirrored this ecosystem activity.

In a potentially game-changing development, a few days ago, validators approved a 5% burn mechanism. This feature makes RUNE deflationary by ensuring more tokens are removed from the protocol than are printed. Deflationary mechanics often have a positive impact on asset prices in the long run by increasing scarcity. The question now is: will this change be enough to reverse the downward trend and bring RUNE back into bullish territory?

With strong fundamentals and now a deflationary system in place, RUNE has the tools for a comeback. The community is keeping a close eye on how this development will impact price action in the days ahead. Share your predictions—will RUNE bounce back, or is it set to test new lows before finding its footing? Let the guessing begin!

Don't forget to reshare this post for a maximal winning chance!
