CryptoQuant: The proportion of small Bitcoin transactions rises to 80%, network activity approaches historical highs

Abstract generation in progress
CryptoQuant Research Director Julio Moreno stated that small Bitcoin transactions with amounts less than 0.01 BTC now account for about 80% of daily transaction volume, up from approximately 44% in 2023.
This growth is mainly driven by on-chain data protocols based on OP_RETURN, such as Runes, Ordinals, BRC-20, and data timestamp services, which generate a large number of low-value transactions.
As a result, Bitcoin network activity continues to heat up, with daily transaction volume exceeding 800k transactions, and the network activity index reaching its highest level since the end of 2024, only about 7% below the all-time high.
Meanwhile, the number of unconfirmed transactions in the Bitcoin mempool has risen to approximately 128k, the highest level since February 2025.

OP_RETURN this wave indeed boosted small transactions, 80% share is a bit exaggerated, but maximizing on-chain activity is good for the ecosystem

Only 44% in 2023? This growth rate indicates that Bitcoin is being used in more and more scenarios, not just for hoarding.
