Bitcoin may be trading near all-time highs, but on-chain activity shows very different things. Despite BTC hovering around $109,000, the network’s mempool, the queue of unconfirmed transactions waiting to be included in a block, is almost empty. As of Saturday, fewer than 5,000 transactions were waiting in line. That's dramatically lower than the 150,000+ seen during Bitcoin’s last major run-up in late 2024.
