BTC: Local Mempool Age Sample Transactions

Bitcoin Local Mempool Age Sample Transactions was 76,744 transactions on 9 Nov 2026 (latest daily value).

The captured local mempool population with validated entry-age and dependency metadata.

Why use it. Read the population behind local entry-age views. How to read it. A genuine empty valid population is zero. Missing entry/dependency metadata holds these observations independently of fee charts. 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. Use one validated Core capture with consistent local clocks and dependencies. Count every transaction in the validated Core response once. 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.
