BTC: Local Mempool Transactions Aged 1–<6 hours

Bitcoin Local Mempool Transactions Aged 1–<6 hours was 6,999 transactions on 9 Nov 2026 (latest daily value).

Captured local mempool transactions with entry age at least 3600 and below 21600 seconds.

Why use it. See the pending transaction count in this local residence-time range. How to read it. The lower age edge is included and the upper excluded. Observed empty bands are zero; missing/invalid metadata is not an empty population. The hour/day point is the last actual accepted sample in that UTC bucket, not a time average. Earlier or missing samples and departed/replaced transactions are not reconstructed. Read capture clocks and gap coverage; a final sampling-period label does not confirm its transactions.

Calculation. From one validated Core capture, count transaction multiplicities by exact local capture-minus-entry seconds. Seven disjoint bands conserve the full captured count. Age is local capture Unix second minus Core-reported local entry second, not network first-seen time or expected confirmation wait. Transactions have equal weight; virtual size does not weight age. Only one local Bitcoin Core node is observed; this is not a worldwide mempool census or a confirmation forecast.
