Chart of the Week

This week's Chart of the Week highlights the latest Bitcoin halving and its impact on daily miner revenue.Bitcoin halvings, which happen roughly every four years or every 210,000 blocks, reduce mining block rewards by half — in this case, from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC. This reduction can lead to decreased revenue for miners, assuming transaction fees and the underlying price of Bitcoin remain consistent.While historically rising Bitcoin prices have offset the impact of reduced BTC issuance, transaction fees are expected to become increasingly significant for miners with the rising demand for Bitcoin block space.Shortly after the recent halving, daily transaction fees surged to 1,257 BTC —a dramatic 1,336% increase from the average daily fee of 88 BTC since August. This was primarily driven by the heightened interest in Bitcoin Ordinals and Runes.

For context, since August 2023, there have only been 24 days out of 267 where daily block rewards accounted for less than 80% of total daily mining revenue. The lowest percentage recorded was 24.56% on the day of the halving, when BTC daily transaction fees surged to 1,257 BTC, compared to daily block rewards of 409 BTC.
