Maybe with this new Ordinals thing we won't see low fees so frequently as before for a bit: people is embedding a wide variety of stuff into Bitcoin blockchain seemengly without a clear plan in mind.

I've seen talk about this for a while now, but I don't see the unconfirmed transaction count going up significantly other than at specific times. Except for one spike, the last week has been relatively low, and I've been sending transactions at the minimum fee for a while now and they are confirmed without much delay.

There's a mountain of low fee transactions waiting this week, so if you want a low-fee transaction this weekend, I'd go for 1.1 sat/vbyte instead of the bare minimum Smiley

What would be the reason for this? Maybe too many people doing like me?
