Runes API Overview
The Runes API provides you with fast, reliable data for Bitcoin Runes via an easy-to-use REST interface.
The Runes API is a service that helps you with the complete ingestion of Bitcoin Runes data. Using our endpoints, you can retrieve metadata for a particular rune, trading activity, all runes held by a particular address, and more.
The Runes API uses REST endpoints and cached responses in order to optimize performance and reduce unnecessary requests. Reliable, consistent runes data, one request away.
