币界网报道：Bitcoin's network activity has hit an 18-month low, with the 7-day moving average dropping to 316,000 transactions before a slight recovery to 350,000 - less than half of mid-2024's peak of 700,000 daily transactions. The decline reflects waning interest in Bitcoin-native protocols like Runes and Ordinals, which previously drove volume through token-like functionality and NFT inscriptions. With transaction fees consistently below $1.50, the network has returned to its traditional monetary transfer use cases. Notably, some users are now attempting sub-1 sat/vB transactions below Bitcoin Core's default relay floor, prompting mining pool MARA to create a "Slipstream" pipeline for these non-standard transactions. This development has sparked debates about network standards and censorship resistance within the Bitcoin community.
