Bitcoin's network is experiencing a significant rise in activity driven by microtransactions under 0.01 BTC, now making up nearly 80% of daily transactions. This surge is fueled by data inscription protocols like Ordinals, Runes, and BRC-20, increasing demand for block space and pushing the mempool to about 128,000 unconfirmed transactions. While current congestion is below past peaks, the growing use of OP_RETURN for embedding data raises competition for block space, potentially impacting transaction fees and confirmation times. The trend suggests Bitcoin may enter a new phase of network congestion despite stable price movements.
