Contents 00:00 Intro 00:35 Daily average transaction fees (in dollars) 01:23 Brief history of the chart 06:44 Taproot brought other use cases to BTC network 07:51 Doesn't change the fact: BTC is BASE MONEY 13:30 Layered protocols / Off-chain scaling is different 15:26 Conclusion on base money Here I look at the average daily transaction fees, in US-dollar terms, for the Bitcoin protocol over its lifetime. Even with the explosion of Ordinals onto the scene these days and the demand for transaction-inclusion (block space) increasing, it does not change the fact that on-chain, mainnet bitcoins - UTXOs - are base money!
