Unisat Wallet, the Bitcoin inscription wallet, posted on the X platform that it will end the Brc 20-swap voting and list RATS.

Therefore, UniSat Wallet will invest time, develop and expose more code to increase the transparency of Brc 20-swap and support the transition of indexers to a whitelist module. Once successfully transitioned to a whitelist module, the platform will quickly fully support all Brc 20 assets.
