Pipe

PIPE is a Bitcoin-native token protocol inspired by Casey Rodarmor's RUNES and Ordinal's BRC-20 ideas.

Since RUNES does not allow for fair mints (an important aspect of BRC-20's) and potentially renders all of its tokens securities (due to centralized distribution), PIPE tries to combine the strengths of both ideas.

Like BRC-20, PIPE consists of 3 "functions": Deploy, Mint, Transfer (hence DMT). Deploy signals that a new token has been deployed, while Mint allows to mint from this token, based on the deployment's rules (supply, limits). Eventually, Transfer is being used to send tokens to selected recipients.
