Embedded Data charts/Protocol Fee Competition

Protocol Fee Competition

Daily fees paid by transactions matching each protocol detector. The detectors can match the same transaction, so these are not parts of one total

About this metric

Definition

Which kind of data-carrying transaction was paying more into the fee market at a given time. Two detectors side by side, because a transaction can match both and is then counted by both.

How it is measured

Fees paid by the transactions each detector matched, drawn as two totals beside the block's whole fee take rather than as parts of it. A transaction carrying both an inscription and a Runes payload is credited to both, so the two cannot be added: more than 125,000 blocks have both detectors firing and in 1,326 of them the sum exceeds the block's entire fee take. Which detector is larger in a period is a fact about the detectors, not about what drove the fee market.
