BTC: Local Mempool Minimum Fee Rate — Sample Mean

Bitcoin Local Mempool Minimum Fee Rate — Sample Mean was 0.1 sat/vB on 9 Nov 2026 (latest daily value).

The average of local mempool minimum fee rate samples from our own Bitcoin Core node in each UTC hour or day, in sat/vB.

Why use it. Summarize the mempool minimum fee rate observed on this node across each period. How to read it. Each point is the arithmetic mean of the available irregular samples in the UTC hour or day, not a time-weighted network average, so unevenly spaced samples weight parts of the period differently. Compare with the node's minimum relay fee rate chart. Samples are prospective observations, beginning 2026-10-03, with no earlier observations reconstructed. Mempool policy and visibility are local to this node, so this describes one node's policy, not the network's.

Calculation. Sample the local mempool minimum fee rate of our own validated Bitcoin Core node at irregular times. For each UTC hour or day, take the arithmetic mean of the available samples, normalized to 40 significant decimal digits for publication. Coverage records the first and last observation, sample count and gaps.
