The Bitcoin blockchain has updated its historical maximum in the number of transactions per day of transactions. New record - 927,010.

This significantly exceeds the previous maximum of 724,000 transactions, set in December 2023.

The most obvious reason for the spike is the launch of the#Runesprotocol. Since the launch of Runes on April 20, according to #Dune, the new standard on average accounts for more than 60% of transactions on the Bitcoin blockchain. On some days this week the value exceeded 80%.

By the way,#Arkhamanalysts discovered two airdrops of Runes tokens totaling more than $20,000 on two Blackrock ETF wallets. But so far there is no reason to believe that#Blackrockknows about them at all or can gain access to them.
