Average fees are super low and even 1 sat/vbyte seems to get you in the next block a lot of times. The last block only had 48 transactions! Maybe I just haven't payed much attention in the past but this seems really low. Any ideas why transaction volume is so low?
The block was mined roughly 20 seconds prior. My best guess is that ViaBTC didn't have enough time to fully populate the blocks with transactions and were pushing blockheaders to the miners in the interim while they were populating the block fully. The block was mined in the process, which is a possible explanation for the low block count.
Also, what's up with the "best change" thing I see on so many people's avatars?
