Alex Thorn, Head of Firmwide Research at Galaxy Digital (previously Avon Ventures & Fidelity) joins me to talk about how and why Bitcoin Fees are low. After going through eras of higher fees, it might be puzzling as to why they’re low now.
We talk:
- Which factors had the biggest impact
- SegWit
- Batching
- Lightning Network
- Less OP_Returns
- Less miner selling
- What might cause fees to rise in future
