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! In addition, we will roll these transaction fees, over an entire year (trailing 12-months or trailing-365 days), and see how much of a % these fees make up of total miner revenue. Remember, the other (much larger, at present) component of mining revenue is the block reward, or the issuance of new coins.
