COINOTAG News, February 15th, recent analysis from CryptoQuant expert Maartunn indicates a significant decline in the average Bitcoin transaction fee, currently at just 0.000013 BTC, which translates to approximately $1.27. This marks the lowest fee level observed in recent years. Transaction fees experienced dramatic spikes in May 2023, December 2023, and April 2024, primarily attributed to the introduction of the Runes protocol and a notable increase in Bitcoin’s price. During that period, unconfirmed transactions surged in the mempool, necessitating users to pay higher fees for expedited processing.
Currently, the mempool appears quite empty, with diminishing interest in Bitcoin Inscriptions leading many retail investors to withdraw from the market. In this favorable environment, it presents an optimal opportunity to enhance wallet management strategies. Bitcoin holders with assets spread across various addresses can leverage this period as an economical chance to consolidate their holdings effectively.
