Today's date is March 12, 2024 and the crypto market is buzzing. The latest BTC price stands at an impressive $71,194.543, a figure that continues to astound both new and seasoned investors alike. With the Bitcoin block height now at 834391, the network continues to grow and strengthen.
The current block reward subsidy remains at 6.25 BTC, but with just 39 estimated days until the next BTC reward halving, the crypto community is waiting with bated breath to see how this will impact the market dynamics.
In terms of transactions, the priority TX fee currently stands at 30 sats/vbyte, reflecting high network activity levels. This is further evidenced by the unconfirmed mempool transactions which have reached a whopping 130,192.
