Why use it. Show the peak number of unconfirmed transactions this node held within each period. How to read it. Each point is the maximum of the available samples in the UTC hour or day, so one high sample sets it; it is not time-weighted. Samples are irregular prospective observations, beginning 2026-10-03, with no earlier observations reconstructed. Mempool policy and visibility are local to this node, so this is one node's view, not a network-wide count.
Calculation. Sample the local mempool transaction count of our own validated Bitcoin Core node at irregular times. For each UTC hour or day, take the maximum of the available observations. Coverage records the first and last observation, sample count and gaps.
