00:00 Intro
00:53 Latest daily average Tx fees (in dollars)
02:00 Non-base money use cases?
02:33 Use trailing twelve months!
07:40 TTM issuance % (in USD)
14:35 Other base money fees
19:13 BTC's fee % component will be more
20:10 TTM issuance % (in BTC)
Here I look at the average daily transaction fees, in US-dollar terms, for the Bitcoin protocol over its lifetime. Even with the explosion of Ordinals onto the scene these days and the demand for transaction-inclusion (block space) increasing, it does not change the fact that on-chain, mainnet bitcoins - UTXOs - are base money!
In addition, we will roll these transaction fees, over an entire year (trailing 12-months or trailing-365 days), and see how much of a % these fees make up of total miner revenue. Remember, the other (much larger, at present) component of mining revenue is the block reward, or the issuance of new coins.
