BTC2ME on Nostr: Bitcoin transaction fees surpassed the block rewards for the first time since 2017. ...
Bitcoin transaction fees surpassed the block rewards for the first time since 2017. Good for the miners but bad for the users as the total number of unconfirmed transactions in the Bitcoin mempool skyrocketed.
That is a result of the taproot upgrade enabling BRC-20 tokens on the Bitcoin network.
DO WE NEED TO REMOVE THE BITCOIN TAPROOT UPGRADE???
