unusually slow network today

the average block in the last 24 hours only had 3.59 tps in it (i.e. 2154 transactions) and NO BLOCK had more than 6.33 tps (3801 transactions)

It did "feel" a bit slower today watching TX's confirm

Great app you built thanks for sharing Super

I think outputs per block would be an interesting metric to track as well. A lot of the transactions could be large batch payments.

Yeah, though I'd assume one output per tx is "change" and doesn't count

Op returns and p2a outputs also wouldn't count because they aren't payments

P2A yes, but op_returns I think should count as a "transaction". They could represent a "payment" in some way. It could be one op_return and change.

Op returns burn any bitcoins they contain

And I'm not interested in counting non-bitcoin payments

Holiday slowdown? 🤷‍♂️

Probably forgot to add the new cover sheet on it.
