Babylon unstaking continue to account for a significant proportion of all bitcoin transaction fees, even hitting 50% on 11th April.

Blockspace is currently so cheap that a 4MvB inscription tx costs just 0.02 BTC

At OP_NEXT Day 1 (2h15m) Ryan Rasmussen mentioned that

BitwiseInvest had to deal with dusting attacks shortly after BITB addresses were published.

I've noticed that many (22) of the wallet addresses which are no longer used have received address poisoning attack transactions.

babylon unstaking transactions are accounting for a large proportion of all transaction fees, because they use a hard coded fee rate

who could have predicted this

Even with the mempool this empty, it's possible to get your transaction stuck for 1 hour by using 1 sat/vB instead of 1.1 sat/vB

People complain that Bitcoin is stagnant. Instead they should experiment with new exciting tech, like bark

It would also be great to be able to set a URL for your own mempool instance when clicking "View on blockchain explorer"

The reports of BTC20's death are greatly exaggerated

The majority of transactions made within the past 24 hours were BRC20 transactions

A third of all transactions in the past 30 days were BRC20
