In recent weeks, there has been a significant shift in the dynamics of the Bitcoin network; While there was a significant decrease in transaction fees, miner revenues in November outpaced the previous month's revenues.


Data analysis on Thursday revealed that the average cost of Bitcoin transaction fees dropped to $5.89, while the median fee was $2.86. This marked a significant drop from fees, which had risen to over $18 per transaction earlier in the month. Despite the lower fees, blockchain usage remained strong, with approximately 347,791 entries processed that day.
The network's activity increased on Saturday last week, with a record number of over 475,000 transactions indicating a strong participation. This high level of usage continued throughout the week and consistently exceeded 300,000 daily transactions.
On Friday, a backlog in the mempool resulted in about 269 block worth of unconfirmed transactions, highlighting the network's congestion issues. Despite this, miners had a profitable month, with their total earnings in November reaching $945 million, surpassing October's $880 million total. Fee income alone approached the peak seen in May, with miners earning over $124 million. #ContentStar# #GatePost#
