Mempool Watch 👀
Check your mempool and the recent blocks... you will see hundreds of high fee transactions that are all the same... let's explore
The txs have a 0.05 BTC input and are being spent with a fixed 64,000 sat fee, overpaying by 42x!
In total, this entity just spent almost 0.4 BTC in fees!
And it wasn't a consolidation so they will spent the same in the future if they keep their hardcoded fee.
All of the transactions have a P2TR tapscript which implements a 1-of-1 AND 6-of-9 multisig
One master key has to sign and in addition any 6 of the remaining 9 must sign.
This complex setup secured the 30 BTC that just moved in 600 individual transactions!
And this entity isn't done! They have another 30 BTC held in unspent transaction outputs (UTXOs), all with with the same scriptPubKey.

Empty Block Report
A data driven analysis of the bitcoin empty block phenomenon.
Have you ever used testnet?
There’s a two tier block space market
You’d best hope your fee estimator is legit
Concept: VIP MODE
Show one post from each person you follow first.
Why? Today, unless people post and interact regularly they just disappear from their followers feeds. IMO this results in larger amounts of lower quality content.
What do you think? Which nostr client do you think will be the first to add VIP MODE ?
Self sovereign zaps are back ⚡️
Thanks for the push!
