I finally came around to finish the Blockchaincom wallet write-up.

The Blockchaincom wallets follow the feerate recommendations of the Blockchaincom API closely (or over/underpay by a fixed percentage due to bugs in the wallets). This allows to identify a majority of the Blockchaincom transactions by combining the fingerprint and the feerate recommendation. I still believe the reported network share of one-third of all transactions is reasonably accurate.

Feedback, ideas, and potential future topics to add to my already long list are welcome. However, I'll be busy with other things in the coming weeks.
