Why do fees suddenly spike to like 300 sat/vB for these ordinals things then drop back down right away?
Like specifically why, not just "because degen" - are paying high fees part of the protocol, is it a sudden rush of trading?
Why does the next block become so valuable when they could just wait?
Explain it to me like I pay a monthly fee for a blue check
