Watching the halving countdown on mempool.space and I can't help but wonder about those transactions of small amounts of corn, with the massive fees. Like, sending $70 worth but paying a fee of $6000 just doesn't make any sense in any way.
I always assume it's some ordinals/nft junk, or miners batching their own transactions or something like that; I'm kinda good not knowing honestly, but a part of me likes to believe that every transaction is a legitimate, organic p2p transfer, and this really breaks the illusion.
Anyways, history in the making, 4 blocks away, LFG!
